This 1945 classic lofty hillside residence with 4 Master Bedrooms & 4.5 baths was entirely renovated and redesigned in 2014 for Architectural Digest AD 100 by Architect John Ike for his own personal San Diego home.

Luckily there is a telescope in the residence so that you can enjoy the spectacular panoramic views that stretch from Cabrillo Point and the Pacific Ocean, to the 10,000 foot high Pacific Coast Range east of downtown San Diego.

The never ending parade of ships and sailboats in San Diego Bay below would be enough to keep you occupied during your entire stay!

It's also one of those homes that you really have to be inside of in order to appreciate the excellent design and intriguing detailed craftsmanship that has been created for your comfort and viewing pleasure.

Each of the Master Bedrooms (two on each level) have spectacular views and are decorated with vintage mid- century furniture and custom made beds, each with its own bath, and all but one affording access to the outdoors. We have two King sized beds, 2 twins, 1 queen and two single pull out couches.

The custom kitchen paneled entirely in Hemlock with cork floors and ceilings, features a vintage Chambers Range and Oven, Subzero refrigerator, Convection Oven Microwave, and opens to an outdoor dining terrace with a built in charcoal Weber plus a separate gas grill.

An upstairs lofty shingled great room with 13' ceilings and a wall of sliding glass panels features a living area, fireplace, dining area and a chic stand up bar and vintage McIntosh Stereo. Vintage mid-century furniture, art and textiles lend an air of casual elegance to this room you just don't want to leave.

A lower level additional sitting room with floor to ceiling glass and ultra HD 4K TV provides and alternative place to hang out.

So pack your bags and get ready to enjoy- two expansive decks, two additional patio areas, two living areas, 2 fireplaces, private jacuzzi, private terraced area amongst the orange and lemon and olive trees, eat in kitchen, dining area, office space with WIFi and printer, washer dryer, dishwasher, telescope, hammock, wet bar and 6 HD TV's.

Ample non restrictive street parking, quiet residential neighborhood.

Just minutes away from famous San Diego Beaches, Yacht Club, Shelter Island, Harbor Island, Gas Lamp Downtown, Convention Center, SeaWorld, Balboa Park, San Diego Zoo, Seaport Village, Little Italy, Old Town and many more waterside shops and restaurants.

After a fun and sun filled San Diego day make sure you make time for a relaxing hot tub jacuzzi. Then just stretch out with your family on the outdoor, comfortable lounge chair furniture and hammock while you gaze upon the gorgeous sunsets.

We know that this will be a Vacation Home you will always remember, and we look forward to hosting your group. Call now for a reservation

    The location and views were incredible. We celebrated a family event together, and the property offered so many ways to be together and yet still have one’s own space when needed.

    We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home. The views were breathtaking; the design and furnishings and artwork were inspired; the gardens were exquisite; the options for sitting/gathering in small groups were unbelievable! So quiet at night; ample parking; great caretaking by Bruce; accessible to everything one could need in terms of retail. Would highly recommend.

    Great location place is very clean. Loved the modern decor. The views were amazing sat out on the deck for hours a day. Bedrooms 4 masters on bathroom suites, definitely a plus. Bruce was great to deal with did a walk-through with us over the phone answered any question was available if needed. Seems like a very safe and quiet neighborhood. Plenty of parking close to grocery store, seafood markets. kitchen was fully stocked, would recommend maybe replacing the nonstick pans they were well used. we only live an hour away from the city, and I would rent this place again in a heartbeat.

    Nine women, ages 85–73, headed to San Diego to celebrate 20 years of praying together. Communication with Susan from the very beginning was so easy. As the time got closer to our arrival date communication with Bruce was just as easy and professional. The house was a showcase of mid-century modern design. And the view was absolutely breathtaking. We loved seeing the city lights at night and seeing ships come in and out of the harbor. The location is ideal and we took advantage of getting to as many attractions as we could in the time that we had.We enjoyed every minute. Would we stay here again? Absolutely!

    This house is not just beautiful, it is a unique experience. Breathtaking views of San Diego and Coronado. Very spacious and comfortable. But the most incredible aspect is the authenticity of this mid century look. The furniture, the artwork, the lighting, the electronics, etc. were really impressive. I would highly recommend staying there. Also, the house manager, Bruce, was super responsive and helpful.

    We rented here for my mother's 80th birthday. The pictures on the listing caught my eye with all the beautiful views. When we got to the house and toured it, i thought it's all that and more. The locatiok is teriffic as its up on a hill in a quiet, residential area filled with expensive homes. You can walk to a grocery store,, starbucks and Dunkin Donuts, plus some restaurants and a bar or two. Its an easy drive to the beaches and to Gaslamp. The house architecture is amazing. The house has 2 huge decks with seating areas, a table fire pit and a hammock. There is an attractive wet bar, very nice grill area w mutilple grills, a hot tub, etc. 4 of us each had our own rooms with very comfortable beds and private baths. The house was well stocked with everything we needed. The family room Sonos system was a nice perk. We would suggest upgrading the sauce pans with some new non-stick ones. Can't recommend this place enough. I could have sat on the deck w a beer and watxhed the view for hours and we did!
