Property Description

This inviting and most charming Cape-Cod-style home was beautifully renovated and expanded in 2000. It offers a huge backyard with a 50-foot pool and gorgeous gardens. This is a rare and precious Upper Hermosa offering. Please see supplement. This home feels very much like an East Coast beach house - - casual, open, and airy, with lots of light coming in. Ione Stiegler, architect, of I.S. Architecture, seamlessly united the first and second floors in the restoration/renovation/expansion, focusing on attention to detail and to the preservation of the original architectural character of the house. Classic millwork and clever built-ins characterize the interior. There are oak floors throughout most of the house. The living room is a study in good taste and has a fireplace with a honed limestone-covered hearth, and a large bay window overlooking the front garden. The great room is comprised of an open-plan family room, a delicious kitchen, and the dining room, all of which converge in one central area that brings everyone in the house together and opens onto a large, covered porch that serves as a welcoming gathering place. The flow of the house connects beautifully to the wonderful yard. The master captures sea views and breezes, with French doors in the sitting area opening onto the view. The master bath has a definite Cape-Cod flavor with its bead board-wainscoted walls and old fashioned medicine cabinets. There are many traditional details throughout the home which has been featured in magazines including 'Better Homes and Gardens' and 'San Diego Home and Garden'. There are 3 full baths and 2 guest baths and an outdoor shower. As per tax assessor the year built is 1948 and the "effective year built" is 1985.
