Classic charm meets beach retreat at 1570 Virginia Way, built in 1915 and brimming with upscale elegance. Nestled high above the coastal landscapes of La Jolla on over a half-acre of lush treed and landscaped grounds, the rare, customized architectural stunner affords a New England-like vibe yet exudes utmost privacy and luxury. Breathtaking views are your daily pleasure, extending to the famous La Jolla coastline from North Shore to La Jolla Cliffs, with panoramas of Pacific Ocean from almost every oversized window in the house. This special residence, originally owned by the Helms Family of Helms Bakery in LA, is truly timeless and one of a kind.

The warmth of rich redwood interiors that visually connect the living room, family room & dining room, and a lovely fireplace to gather around creates an inviting ambiance like the coziness of a beautiful lodge. The upper level is reserved for the peaceful sleeping quarters, providing a perfect separation from the family space. Lounge and host guests outdoors on the large blissful deck overlooking a wooded canyon.
