Property Description
Iconic opportunity to own a piece of history. One of only two Wallace Neff–designed homes in San Diego County, built in 1938 by the architect of Pickfair and Hollywood's Golden Age estates. Restored with a level of craftsmanship the architecture demanded. Set far off the street behind a curved driveway. Soaring exposed wood-beam ceilings, original built-ins, a central fireplace, French doors opening to formal gardens, and picture windows framing the eastern mountains and city lights. Elevated designer kitchen with a Liebherr refrigerator, 48-inch dual-fuel range, dual sinks, and soapstone and Carrara marble countertops. Seamless hardwood flooring runs the entire home without a single threshold or transition. Two primary suites on the main level, a third bedroom off the entry, and a loft reached by a custom staircase and railing as a flexible fifth bedroom. Detached guest quarters with en-suite bath, ideal for extended family visiting, multigenerational living, or a private office with separate entrance to maximize income. The .9-acre usable lot comes with a workshop, established gardens, 18 fruit trees, olive trees, and enough space for a private ADU. This rare opportunity comes around once in a lifetime.
