Iconic Landmark House Unit next to the beach- Panoramic Ocean/Coastal Views!

An oceanfront landmark home designed by a renowned architect, recently remodeled with upgraded windows and new flooring (May 2025). Ideally located next to the iconic La Jolla Cove, this historic home is just steps from restaurants, museums, beaches, galleries, and shops in La Jolla Village—arguably the best location in La Jolla.

This unique property is divided into two fully independent units, each with its own entrance and privacy. The only shared spaces are the garage, laundry room (with one washer and two dryers), and central A/C control. Each unit has one garage space suitable for a standard vehicle or SUV. Both units can be booked together—perfect for family reunions or small weddings. The upstairs unit (Unit 2) can be found under VRBO ID: 2786466.

To reduce noise, soundproofing materials and new flooring have been added to the upstairs unit. Please note: parties are not allowed unless the other unit is vacant.

Being right on the ocean, you’ll enjoy fresh sea air and the soothing sound of waves. This isn’t a luxury five-star hotel, but you can cook, grill, and dine with stunning ocean views—an experience hotels can’t match.

About Unit 1 (Downstairs):
This lower-level unit has exclusive use of the main entrance and includes:
• A spacious living room with a futon bed
• A kitchen and dining room
• A large master bedroom (Bedroom 1) with a king bed, full en-suite bath, a connected den with a futon sofa bed, and access to a private ocean-view deck with BBQ
• Bedroom 2 with a queen bed and ocean-view balcony
• Bedroom 3, a small room (hallway with lockable doors on each side) with two twin beds, ideal for kids, facing the side yard

- [ ] • Bedroom 4: A 7’ x 9’ den attached to the master bedroom, featuring windows with ocean views. Furnished with a double futon bed, it’s ideal for children or a single guest.

• A three-quarter bathroom (shower only)

Please note: Bedrooms 3 and 4 are compact rooms with windows and doors, but are not traditional bedrooms.

Fabulous location and wonderful stay

We loved our stay in this fabulous location right along the water. The comfortable three bedrooms (one small) worked well for our group of five. We enjoyed making coffee in the kitchen, sitting inside or at the round outdoor table, and looking out over the ocean. It was also a great place to walk to La Jolla Cove, shops and restaurants downtown or other locations along the water. Really a wonderful place

The house was in a beautiful location! Can't beat the walkability and the view! Plenty of room for our family. The owner was very prompt at responding to messages! Like other reviews mentioned, the garage was small but it does fit a small crossover SVU (probably not a van or any 3 row car...).

Women's Retreat

We enjoyed a weekend stay at this beautiful home. It was peaceful. The ocean views from all of the balconies are just amazing. The sounds of the waves crashing at night were like a natural soundscape. And you get the most beautiful sunset over the ocean views from the master bedroom patios. We had all the privacy we needed with quick access to all the shops we needed. Just amazing.

Awesome View

View from the house overlooking the ocean is very nice. Every room has an ocean view. The owner is very nice and prompt with answering our inquiries and requests. Since there was nobody checked in prior to our dates, Simon (owner) let us check in as early as 10 am. My wife and her friends enjoyed staying at the patio and just enjoying the view. I highly recommend this place, either to celebrate a special occasion or just wanting to relax.

Lovely Location

The location of this home is spectacular, with a view of the cliffs in La Jolla. The communication with the property manager was excellent. The home is older, so although it was cleaned upon arrival, it could use a deep clean of the floors and kitchen area. We also ended up buying a new sponge since it seemed like it hadn't been replaced in a while. But it was nothing major and we had an excellent vacation.
