Property Description
Discover an unparalleled opportunity in Mt. Helix with this expansive 2.41-acre estate, comprising a 5,872-sq-ft Santa Barbaraâinspired main residence, a 2,428-sq-ft meticulously remodeled casita and a separate 0.77-acre ready-to-build vacant lot. The main residence blends architectural elegance with resort-style amenities, featuring interconnected octagonal structures and a dramatic tower room offering 360° panoramic views. Formal and casual living areas complement a chefâs kitchen and a primary suite that opens to a wraparound terrace. An executive office adds functionality, while the lower level includes versatile bedrooms, auxiliary flex rooms, and a gym/storage space. Outdoors, botanical gardens with over 100 rose varieties, four tranquil fountains, and diverse specimen trees create a serene setting. Multiple pools and spas, including an elevated spa with sweeping views to the east, south, and westâencompassing Downtown San Diego and Point Lomaâprovide relaxation, while expansive terraces and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen enhance alfresco dining experiences. Centrally located between the pools, a two-story pool house features multiple bathrooms, a rejuvenating sauna, and the âLas Brisasâ guest retreat with a detached gym/yoga studio and direct spa access. The casita, extensively renovated in 2018, offers a chefâs kitchen, hardwood floors, exposed wood beam ceilings, and a separate downstairs studio with a full bath and kitchenette. Completing this exceptional estate is a generous buildable lot equipped with a private water well currently used for irrigation, offering sustainable landscaping and potential for future development or added privacy. This estate masterfully combines architectural elegance, luxurious amenities, and breathtaking views, offering a one-of-a-kind living experience in the prestigious Mt. Helix community.
