About this home
Recognized as one of California's great historic residential compounds, "The Versailles of La Jolla" commands an irreplaceable 2.65-acre promontory in the prestigious Muirlands neighborhood. Originally designed by renowned architect Edgar Ulrich with landscape roots tracing to Kate Sessions—the "Mother of Balboa Park"—this landmark estate preserves its historic character under a coveted Mills Act designation, having been thoughtfully modernized in collaboration with Island Architects. Spanning 14,768 sq. ft. of grand-scale living space, the main residence features soaring ceilings, exquisite classical detailing, ten fireplaces, expansive walls of glass, and sweeping, unobstructed panoramas stretching across the Pacific coastline. Designed to function as a private luxury resort, the gated grounds feature manicured formal gardens, a saltwater lap pool and spa, a pool cabana with a full kitchen, a regulation tennis court, and two separate guest residences. Interior amenities rival the world's finest estates, offering a professional-grade golf simulator, a Hollywood-style screening room, a billiard and bar lounge, a dedicated music room, and a chef's kitchen. Complete with an air-conditioned 6-car garage and extensive motor court parking for up to 22 vehicles, this generational offering represents the pinnacle of privacy, architectural pedigree, and coastal majesty in La Jolla.
