La Jolla Shores Mid-Century Coastal Retreat Steps from the sand and tucked into one of La Jolla Shores' most coveted residential streets, this beautifully maintained single-level residence offers an exceptional combination of location, privacy, and... coastal character that is rarely available. Built in the coastal mid-century tradition and thoughtfully updated over the years, the home greets you with a striking pair of stained glass double entry doors and an interior filled with natural light, refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, and multiple skylights. The overall feel is warm, curated, and distinctly un-generic — a home with genuine personality. Living & Entertaining The generous living room is the heart of the home, featuring a fireplace with vintage-inspired surround, built-in display niches, recessed lighting, and expansive sliding glass doors that open directly onto a large front terrace. From here, panoramic views of palm-lined streets, surrounding hills, and peek ocean glimpses create a backdrop that makes every evening feel like a vacation. Whether you're hosting guests or simply unwinding at sunset, this is a space that delivers. A central dining area with built-in cabinetry and a custom bar area connects the living and kitchen spaces, creating a natural flow ideal for entertaining. At the rear of the home, a sun-filled bonus room with corner sliding glass doors opens onto a private, lushly landscaped brick patio — a quiet retreat completely removed from the street. Kitchen The well-appointed galley kitchen is equipped for the serious home cook: • Sub-Zero refrigerator • New Wolf range/oven with professional hood • Bosch dishwasher • Granite countertops and stone backsplash • Skylight and breakfast nook / additional work station • LG washer/dryer integrated into cabinetry Bedrooms & Baths The flexible floor plan offers genuine separation between living and sleeping areas, with three bedrooms plus a separate bonus room: The primary suite features direct access to the rear patio, a walk-in closet, built-in desk workstation, and a beautifully remodeled ensuite bath with dual sinks, a spa-style walk-in glass shower with glass block window and skylight, and marble mosaic tile flooring. A private third bedroom suite is positioned on the opposite side of the home with its own full bath, offering excellent separation — ideal for guests, a live-in professional, or multi-generational arrangements. All bedrooms include built-in desk workstations, plantation shutters, ceiling fans, and wood floors, making this an exceptional home for remote work or study. The bonus room features its own separate entrance and is well-suited as a home office, creative studio, or additional storage.
