In the sun-drenched haven of La Jolla, a property of sophistication blends grandeur, technology and comfort into a home like no other. Listed for $22.5 million by Scott Ryan and Evan Smith of Compass in La Jolla, this 12,842-square-foot home is a sanctuary of elegance, innovation and coastal charm.
The journey begins at the courtyard entry where 19-foot ceilings and sleek architectural lines set the tone for what lies ahead. Step inside, and 11-foot glass doors immediately blur the boundaries between indoors and out, inviting the soft coastal breeze into the home’s heart. Light pours into the open spaces where each detail is crafted to create harmony and ease.
The main level is a retreat in itself. At its center lies the primary suite, a space of peace with spa-inspired amenities that elevate the everyday into the extraordinary. Three en-suite guest bedrooms are also positioned on the main level to ensure privacy for family or friends. The Italian-designed kitchen is a showpiece, marrying style with state-of-the-art Miele appliances and sleek cabinetry, creating a space as practical as it is stunning.
On the lower level, the home’s personality shines through its unrivaled entertainment and wellness amenities. A full-swing golf and sports simulator is ready to host playful competitions, while a plush 12-person movie theater ensures film nights are nothing short of cinematic. Wine enthusiasts will appreciate the custom wine cellar, perfectly complemented by a stylish bar and billiards room for lively evenings with guests.
Health and relaxation are prioritized in the home’s gym, featuring a dry sauna and steam room that rival the best spas. Outside, a 60-foot pool is complete with a swim-up bar, fireplace and a fully equipped kitchen, perfect for gatherings with loved ones.
Every inch of the property is embedded with cutting-edge technology. A nRTI security system, integrated surround sound, custom lighting and motorized blinds are effortlessly controlled by touchscreens that provide convenience and peace of mind at your fingertips.
Flexibility and hospitality are at the core of this estate’s design. A one-bedroom guest house with its own kitchen and living area ensures visitors experience the same luxury as the main residence. For those seeking a quiet space to work or create, a staircase leads to a versatile flex room that can be transformed into an office, media room or playroom.
Even the home’s garage is a statement of luxury, accommodating four vehicles and offering ample space for car enthusiasts. The fully gated grounds also ensure privacy while framing a lush and maintained backyard. Additionally, a 148-inch outdoor TV creates the ideal gathering spot, perfect for watching sports or enjoying movie nights.
