About this home
Single level Mid-century ranch home with commanding ocean views, upgraded systems and a detached studio in a cherished La Jolla location. The 3 bed/ 3.5 bath main home is clean and bright with walls of glass, original charm and character and an easy connection to the outdoors. The views stretch across the Pacific, south down the whitewater of the coastline past Crystal pier, with glimpses of the Bay and out to the Coronado Islands. A remarkable backdrop for everyday life. The kitchen is well appointed and looks directly out to the ocean. The focal point of this classic La Jolla home is an open living room with a dual-sided natural stone fireplace and multiple doors opening to a wood deck that wraps around the western side of the property. A custom detached guest studio is its own little gem, offering a private and flexible space with a full bath and kitchenette. Updated kitchen and baths, newer windows, full-solar, new HVAC and a 3-year-old roof provide modern comfort. Set above Bird Rock on an incredible corner lot offering refreshing ocean breezes and great indoor-outdoor flow for year-round enjoyment.
Muirlands, located between La Jolla Village and Bird Rock, is a residential and coastal-hillside San Diego neighborhood with curving canyon streets and ocean-view ridgelines. The area reads as mid-century ranch homes and custom contemporary builds set behind mature landscaping and stone walls. Much of the neighborhood’s character concentrates around the La Jolla Boulevard corridor near Bird Rock, where sidewalk cafes, surf-and-bike shops, and small studios set a relaxed coastal rhythm. Community pillars nearby include The Lot La Jolla for indie films, Warwick’s for author talks and browsing, and The Comedy Store for late-night sets. Calumet Park and the Coast Walk Trail frame daily routines with blufftop paths and pocket greens. The terrain stays quiet and elevated, with quick shifts from canyon shade to open-sky overlooks.
