Property Description

Gorgeous well maintained Frank Lloyd Wright inspired one level home on very private, quiet street atop La Jolla Shores. The exterior front is cedar and opens onto a lovely courtyard. Remodeled over the years with contributions by renowed architect Sim Bruce Richards (1908-1983) who was an apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright. His design can be seen in the living room and bay, courtyard fencing, and garages. The serene wood and glass of the living room was designed in the spirit of Wright's teachings and philosophies. The kitchen and family room extends this design concept through the work done by Drexel Patterson of Island Architects. His design achievement was written up in an issue of San Diego Home & Garden Magazine as the "Art Gallery Kitchen." The family room and kitchen were described in the article as "striking but restful," "efficient and sleek". The kitchen offers stainless steel countertops, cherry floors & cabinets and vaulted ceilings of planked white cedar whch extends into the family room. The view from these rooms consist of an Asian garden, waterfall and Koi pond outside a 15 foot glass wall. This .39 acre lot includes complete access around the entire house and includes side yards with a planting structure, small orchard, as well as the stunning Koi ponds, bridge & waterfall. Minutes to UCSD, La Jolla Village, La Jolla Shores Beach, 3 major hospitals, and easy freeway and trolley access. This is your opportunity to own a unique home.
