After a beautiful summer weekend, made all the more spectacular by the happy, smiling, and most importantly “cool” faces of my family visiting from the swelter of Arizona, I have a renewed appreciation for this indoor/outdoor lifestyle we so often brag about.

Those behind the master-planned community Del Sur in north San Diego County have the right idea incorporating this luxury lifestyle into nine model homes in three of their newer neighborhoods. They call it the Del Sur Room, an alfresco extension of the home; covered living space with one to three sides enclosed and accessed through sliding doors off each home’s family room, dining area, or kitchen allowing homeowners to easily enjoy the mild temperatures and coastal breezes of the La Jolla Valley.
The Del Sur room provides transition from indoor to outdoor environments and includes options like a built-in fireplace, lighting and fan fixtures, for optimum comfort and entertaining. The fact that these are already built-in and not something that the homeowner needs to add is a huge bonus for homebuyers and an example of how homebuilders are stepping up to the plate, offering more value and amenities to entice smart buyers.
The three new neighborhoods featuring the Del Sur room and now selling at Del Sur are Carleton and Presidio by Standard Pacific Homes and Valencia by California West Communities.
