La Jolla California
One of the last opportunities in the coveted Muirlands neighborhood to own 3.8 flat acres of open land that adjoins a stunning but relaxed soft contemporary compound, blending a natural synergy between architecture and enviable design. Quality is never an accident: it is always the result of exceptional planning that is skillfully executed…and this estate is truly such an example. In the main home are five bedrooms on the main level plus 2 additional bedrooms with bath upstairs currently used as offices and featuring downtown and Mission Bay Views. Additional separate guest cottage on the property.
KITCHEN
Fully stocked gourmet kitchen features the best of the best in appliances and design. For the chef there are Miele double ovens, a Wolf (6) burner stove with griddle plus Miele electric burner and Miele steamer. The commercial stainless steel hood, while the height of function, also adds a stunning
architectural element to the space. Large double stainless steel sink with alkaline water purifier and generous cooking island with separate vegetable preparation sink provide plenty of space when cooking for large or small parties. Double Bosh dishwashers and 2 Monogram side by side refrigerator/freezers provide the ultimate in cleaning and food storage. The African Wenge wood cabinetry is beautifully complimented by granite countertops with bull nosed 6″ straight edges
ENTRY
The home uniquely combines contemporary styling with organic natural materials creating beautiful balance. The entry features a wall of onyx physically delineating the space but also visually defining the home’s character of sleek, clean, contemporary lines grounded in celebration of the beauty of its natural elements.
MASTER BATHROOM
Exceptional design elements and all of the luxuriously pampering amenities you could desire unite in the master bath creating a truly first class spa experience. Two separate vanity areas (one with make up station), each with solid granite sinks and African Wenge cabinetry, are joined by the family sized
Fossil Onyx steam shower with multiple sprayers. Only the finest European Grohe fixtures are used. In keeping with the extraordinary design choices found throughout the compound the 1-ton solid granite soaking tub is a sensation. Grand in size and stunning in rustic but clean design the tub wows while simultaneously inviting relaxation. Surrounding the tub with floor-to-ceiling windows that open wide, bringing the outdoors in, the design utilizes the beautiful backdrop of the home’s grounds as an added element of luxury to the master bathroom suite itself.
LIVING ROOM
Utilizing contemporary design hallmarks of clean basic shapes and shades of primary colors the living
room is a showplace. Contrasting but complimentary patterned rugs play off each other beautifully in warm yellow/gold, brown, and red. Similarly the simply designed furnishings feel contemporary but never veer toward stark in butter soft leather. A custom designed wall of African Wenge wood, with artistically shaped shelving is a focal point and the perfect place to display your treasures. Thoughtfully chosen and strategically placed indoor plants are used to fully complete the soft contemporary aesthetics.
FLOORING
Custom teak hardwood flooring has been chosen for use throughout the home. Durable and beautiful, teak is similar in hardness to oak and is often used in luxury ship construction, a testament to its
hearty character. Natural oils provide ingrained protection from the ravages of time and the wear and tear of everyday use. The warm coloring adds radiance to every room, creating a lightness that belies the heavy nature of the wood itself, an incredibly desirable combination.
Grounds/Landscaping /
Outdoor Entertaining
Exquisitely planned and designed, the grounds offer an astonishing number of dramatic individual spaces to be enjoyed. Throughout the property you will find many rare species of plants including over 100 year old palm specimens. Large lawns meet lushly planted gardens offering a selection of wide open spaces and also private tropical gardens depending on your mood. Vantage lighting, perfectly
placed, lights up the verdant landscape at night for dramatic effect.
TEAK PAVILION– For outdoor dining the grand Teak pavilion with floor length canvas curtains can be opened up for entertaining overlooking the pool or enclosed for a private romantic escape.
