Greg Noonan of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties Presents Rare $21.5 Million Oceanfront Residence at North WindanSea

LA JOLLA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--An exceptionally rare opportunity to own a private residence directly above the sand at one of La Jolla's most celebrated coastal settings has come to market. Offered at $21,500,000, 7136 Vista del Mar Avenue occupies a privileged position directly above the beach at North WindanSea, overlooking the renowned surf break known locally as Little Point.

Set at the end of a quiet beachfront cul-de-sac, the approximately 4,516-square-foot, four-bedroom residence offers an unusual combination of privacy, scale and proximity to the Pacific. A vast, level lawn stretches between the home and the beach, creating a remarkable sense of openness and separation rarely found in a true oceanfront setting. From the elevated residence, expansive views extend across whitewater and coastline to the horizon, with spectacular sunsets completing the coastal panorama.

The home's architecture further distinguishes the property. Designed in the spirit of a modern California post-and-beam residence, with a distinctly organic, Wrightian influence, the home is characterized by soaring exposed-beam ceilings, warm natural wood, monumental stone and expansive walls of glass. These elements create a seamless visual and spatial connection between the interiors and the Pacific beyond.

Yet it is the property's setting and combination of attributes that make 7136 Vista del Mar particularly compelling. True sandy-beach frontage, an expansive level lawn, exceptional privacy, an elevated position above the beach and immediate proximity to one of Southern California's most storied surf locations represent a collection of characteristics that would be extraordinarily difficult to replicate in La Jolla.

"La Jolla has always been defined by its relationship with the ocean, but properties that offer this particular combination are extraordinarily rare," said Greg Noonan, Broker Associate with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties and founder of Greg Noonan & Associates.

"There are beautiful oceanfront homes available in La Jolla, but very few properties that combine this extreme privacy, broad level lawn and a setting directly above the sandy beach. You hear the lull of the surf, watch the waves at Little Point and look straight out to the horizon, yet the home feels remarkably secluded. After more than four decades selling La Jolla real estate, I know how breathtakingly rarely a property with this combination of attributes becomes available."

A Singular La Jolla Setting

La Jolla has long attracted leaders in science, technology, medicine, philanthropy, entertainment and sport, drawn in part by its distinctive combination of natural beauty, coastal lifestyle and proximity to San Diego's cultural and economic centers. Within this highly sought-after community, however, opportunities to acquire a private residence directly on one of La Jolla's sandy beaches remain exceedingly limited.

7136 Vista del Mar Avenue offers a particularly distinctive expression of that lifestyle: a private coastal retreat where the architecture, lawn and elevated setting frame an uninterrupted relationship with the Pacific, while the cul-de-sac location provides an uncommon degree of seclusion.

For buyers seeking an exceptional La Jolla residence, the property represents not simply an oceanfront address, but a rare convergence of beach, privacy, architecture, landscape and surf culture.
