Description

Incredible views! This property is perched perfectly to take in panoramic views from the Downtown San Diego Skyline all the way west to the Pacific Ocean horizon. There are views from nearly all rooms. It is a great opportunity to use the great bones to build a spectacular dream home, or just add a little TLC to make it your own as it is. Very spacious downstairs, private yard and patio space. Upstairs deck off of second bedroom has unobstructed views of all of San Diego, the bay, and Ocean. Great...Incredible views!

Upstairs deck off of second bedroom has unobstructed views of all of San Diego, the bay, and Ocean. Great family house as it is...but, If you have a project in mind, this property is just outside of the Coastal Commission boundary; which makes permitting and building a lot easier/shorter. Located in a very safe, desirable and friendly neighborhood, La Jolla Palisades. Easy access to all of La Jolla, Pacific Beach, shopping (New Gelson's Market is just down the street!) beaches, parks and all schools.
