About This Home

As of May 2026

Perched among the highest residential vantage points in Solana Beach, this 2023 quintessential coastal residence captures sweeping views from mountain sunrises to whitewater sunsets. Designed by architect Craig Friehauf with interiors by Alexis Garrett Design and built by Munsch Homes, the property reflects a refined California aesthetic with architecturally rigorous design and uncompromising attention to material and craft. Spanning 3,667 square feet, the residence offers 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths and home office, with light-filled living spaces oriented toward full-room west-facing ocean views. Expansive windows and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions allow the coastline to become the backdrop for everyday living from almost every room in the house. A rare flat, west-facing yard at elevation provides exceptional outdoor space. Ideally located west of I-5 and walkable to Fletcher Cove, the Cedros Design District, acclaimed restaurants, pristine beaches, and top-rated schools, the property offers a rare combination of Ridgeline privacy, whitewater views and coastal convenience. A truly rare opportunity to own one of the highest-elevation residential sites in southern Solana Beach, offered for only the second time since 1960.
