Originally designed in 1934 by renowned architect Tom Shepherd, this home was rebuilt in 2011 to preserve its architectural character while integrating modern amenities. Sunlight fills each room through picture windows and French doors, creating beautiful natural light and inviting in gentle ocean and fresh-air breezes. Rich hardwood and travertine floors complement the vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, while a gourmet kitchen anchors the home’s warm, connected living spaces. The primary suite enjoys a balcony overlooking meticulously landscaped gardens and ocean views. French doors from all the main living areas open to a lovely and spacious brick-lined inner courtyard, while the living room and beautiful custom office, equally suited as an elegant den, open to the ocean-view garden. The entire interior is intentionally designed to integrate with the outdoors, creating effortless indoor–outdoor living and enhancing the home’s coastal setting. Truly a sanctuary, the home blends historic charm with refined modern comfort, ideally situated in lower Hillside just moments from the Village in La Jolla and stunning coastline.
