Modern minimalist design meets coastal living with sweeping ocean views at 2144 Cordero in Del Mar. This home delivers a front row seat to Del Mar sunsets over the Pacific framed by contemporary floor-to-ceiling windows that keep every room flooded with natural light. The flexible floor plan adapts to how you live, with space for an elevator and plenty of room to entertain inside and out across multiple decks, while the oversized backyard features a turf terrace with large spool and an expansive flat lower yard with garden beds, offering building opportunity. The attached ADU downstairs has its own private entrance, full kitchen, living room and bedroom–perfect for multigenerational living, guests, or rental income. The home is equipped with fully paid solar and a Tesla Powerwall, delivering energy independence and lower utility costs, plus EV charging for electric vehicle owners. The location covers everything Del Mar buyers ask for–a short drive or bike ride to Del Mar beaches, walking distance to Torrey Pines Reserve, and access to one of San Diego's highest rated school districts. With ocean views, paid solar, and a private ADU in coastal Del Mar, homes like this rarely come to market.

Del Mar Heights, located between Carmel Valley and Torrey Pines, is a coastal and residential San Diego neighborhood with canyon-cut streets and ocean-breeze overlooks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Del Mar Highlands Town Center on El Camino Real, where patios, boutiques, and coffee counters keep the sidewalks in motion. Community touchstones include One Paseo’s restaurant-and-retail blocks, the Cinepolis Luxury Cinemas at Del Mar Highlands, and the Del Mar Racetrack just west of the bluffs. Homes lean toward clean-lined contemporary remodels and classic Southern California ranch forms, often set above greenbelts. Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve frames the western edge with trailheads and sandstone views. Daily life orbits around shopping plazas, coastal drives, and quick hops to the beach towns.

Turn-key contemporary perfection in Del Mar! This beautiful, modern residence is truly everything you've been looking for. Exceptional ocean views from the top floor wonderfully compliment the reverse floor plan and allow for stunning sunsets over the Pacific to be observed from the main living areas. The spacious master suite on the second floor is clean, crisp, and resort-like. Pride of ownership truly shows throughout, from the first floor guest apartment all the way to the top floor deck. [Supplement]: As you walk across the Brazilian wood deck towards the front door, you are sure to be overcome by a feeling that something special awaits. Entering through the wall of glass, you are greeted by an optional first floor apartment, just a few steps down, and complete with a separate entrance that can be sectioned off from the rest of the home and utilized as a guest residence. Or, simply by opening a door, incorporated into the rest of the home, functioning as an additional living room, bedroom, and kitchen area. Heading up to the middle level, you will find yourself in the second bedroom, illuminated by a wall of windows. Down the hall is the stunning, spacious master suite, outfitted with more walls of windows, and a resort-like, modern bathroom that will surely be one of your favorite spaces in the home to unwind. As you make your way up to the top floor of the home, you are again greeted by a plethora of windows that allow natural light to beautifully illuminate the open floor plan of the space. The modern kitchen, with top of the line appliances & finishes, affords anyone who is spending time in it a spectacular panoramic ocean view. The living and dining areas are also privy to the same treetop ocean views, and surely will be the favorite space to entertain in the home. The south facing deck provides a wonderful opportunity for outdoor dining and relaxing while taking advantage of the amazing North County weather. When we say this home has street presence, w. ..
