From the award-winning firm, Blue Heron, known for biophilic design, the brilliant integration of natural elements and indoor-outdoor living create harmony with the surrounding oceanside environment Restorative and inviting, the ORA house exemplifies what is possible when world-class designers unleash their creativity on the scenic jewel of La Jolla. Blue Heron, a nationally recognized and award-winning visionary and experiential firm, has designed and developed its second unmatched custom home in La Jolla. The contemporary and sustainable home design provides a unique setting with a view looking south to Crystal Pier, Point Loma, and the Coronado Islands and west to the sunset. 5228 Chelsea, "The ORA House", provides an unmatched modern living experience with a design that has maximized utilization of the lot and vertical space.

The master suite has been purposely laid out wide to maximize the sublime views with glass at the vanity and beyond the bed wall to allow for ocean views from every angle, and includes a private heated balcony, oversized master closet with laundry and a gorgeous steam shower. A roof top entertainment space hosts magnificent 180-degree ocean views, and is complete with heaters, fire pit, BBQ, a wall of television screens and powder room.
