Nestled at the top of a serene cul-de-sac in University City, this custom home, designed by acclaimed architect Peter Rodi of Designbank and built by Swanson Construction, has only had two owners since it was built. Set on a 10,500 sq. ft. flat lot--one of the area's largest--it offers privacy, space, and endless potential. The foyer welcomes you with a celestial ceiling and custom floral stained-glass window. Elegant antique lighting, including Baccarat-style and Murano-style chandeliers, enhances the ambiance. Inside, two wood-burning fireplaces and an indoor/outdoor garden room with a custom iron spiral staircase elevate the charm. The primary suite boasts "his and hers" bathrooms, large walk-in closets, and a private balcony overlooking the spacious backyard. A versatile second-floor loft currently being used as a family room, can be converted to a fourth bedroom. The home features thoughtful amenities such as two dishwashers, a walk-in pantry, a laundry chute, and a two-car garage with a work area and dog bath. Outside, lush grounds with mature fruit trees, a tranquil zen garden, and a large tiled patio with a fountain offer relaxation and entertaining options. This home offers a 360-degree view from the roof, including Miramar and its famous airshows. The location provides easy access to major freeways, UTC, UCSD, Scripps, and the beach--all within a short drive. With an unparalleled potential for customization, this is a chance to own a one-of-a-kind gem in University City.
