About This Home

As of December 2021

2 homes on one lot in the Heart of Olde Del Mar...live in one & rent the other or redevelop this magnificent one plus acre parcel with a gorgeous new home! Mature landscaping that has taken years of meticulous care creates a paradise for your enjoyment. The existing main home has been remodeled with a Balinese flair to make you feel on vacation 365 days per year. The guest house is set amongst the trees, has its own private decks and looks out onto the San Dieguito lagoon & mountains beyond (see supp). Tucked away from the street and nestled amongst mature tropical landscaping, this unassuming single-level residence may mislead you at first glance. Its unique multi-tiered property provides many different environments, and an abundance of privacy throughout. Upon entering the main house, a beautifully remodeled interior welcomes you with elegant hardwood flooring, vaulted beam ceilings, and a flowing floor plan consisting of 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, approximately 2,276 square feet, and exquisite living areas situated in a great room style. The tranquil master retreat offers a fireplace, lots of closet space and a spa-inspired bath. Two sliding doors in the great room, including a floor-to-ceiling automatic garage door open onto the breathtaking backyard boasting a large deck, spa, soothing water features, and an expansive manicured lawn. Meander down a tree-lined path to the private 2-story guest house boasting 1BR/2BA, approximately 1,608 square feet, generous living room, full granite kitchen, loft area, and a wraparound deck. In addition, there is a wonderful children's play yard & tree house on the lower level. Enjoy easterly views of the canyon, mountains and lagoon from every vantage point of this tropical retreat in Olde Del Mar ~ just a short distance to beaches, The Plaza, Village shops & restaurants, the Del Mar racetrack and more.
