Property Description
This oceanfront Spanish hacienda radiates with peace and tranquility from its sprawling 13,000 SqFt lot atop Bird Rock with panoramic southwest-facing ocean views all the way down to Point Loma. The supremely private, gated home features a large front courtyard and an open floorplan that enjoys vaulted ceilings, Saltillo tile flooring, large bay windows for views from nearly every room, and hand-carved doors from Mexico that open to the spectacular backyard with an exceptionally rare oceanfront pool and spa overlooking the surf. Located on a lesser traveled stretch of Chelsea, this masterpiece home has been lovingly maintained, improved upon and cherished by the same family since their purchase in 1965. Offered for the first time in 55 years, this majestic property presents an exceptional opportunity to own one of La Jolla’s most prized pieces of real estate!

Recorded sales in this period (0)
No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
