Built in 1947, this home on North La Jolla has spent decades quietly holding its European character between Beverly Boulevard and Third Street, now brought fully into the present with a finely curated remodel. The open-concept layout keeps the original timeless bones while dressing them in something entirely modern.

Vaulted ceilings and custom wood beams set a dramatic tone in the family room, the kind of detail that makes a house feel considered rather than just renovated.

Four bedrooms. Six bathrooms. 3,060 square feet, anchored by an opulent dining room and a chef's kitchen that doesn't hold back: a La Cornue French range, Fisher & Paykel appliances, Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a butler's pantry for good measure. The primary residence holds three en-suite bedrooms, led by a primary suite with serene backyard views, a freestanding soaking tub, and a walk-in closet that earns the word elegant.

Outside, Mediterranean-inspired gardens wrap the property into a secluded retreat, complete with a heated pool, spa, and a waterfall feature that turns the backyard into its own destination. At the rear, a two-story guest house extends the living space further still, room enough for a private office, extended guests, or simply more room to entertain.

Every detail here reflects intentional design and effortless elegance, the kind of home that doesn't need to explain itself.
