About This Home

As of July 2015

Fantastic opportunity to get into a good sized, single level house with peek ocean views on a large lot in La Jolla's coveted Upper Hermosa. The house has "good bones" and is very livable, but is ready for a new owner to update it and make it their own. The large lot also gives you the option to add a second story or build a large new two-story house. 3 blocks from the Ocean. Steps away from Bird Rock and all its shops, cafes, and restaurants. Originally designed in 1947 by an architect as his own residence, much of the original character still remains. The house has a bit of a 1950s retro style with hand painted custom floor tiles in the entry and dining area, original black and yellow tile in the hall bathroom, and a '50s diner-style booth in the breakfast nook. Floor to ceiling windows in the living room have all been replaced and are dual pane for better insulation. The master bathroom has been remodeled with a Jacuzzi tub and a glass block wall. 3 Fireplaces (Living Room, Family Room, and Master Bedroom). The large yard is a gardener's dream, with raised planter beds for vegetables, multiple fruit trees, and even a greenhouse for growing orchids or exotic plants.
