Carlsbad Estate With Sweeping Ocean Views

Here we are at what is believed to be the highest point of this coveted coastal community of Carlsbad. Now just a bit, ladies and gentlemen, we will jump in the show helicopter and take a look at this estate from the air. But first, let's see inside. Hey Ty, how are you? Good, good to see you. Welcome. This is Don Lowe from Big Block Realty. Don, you cannot beat the area. I know the views are going to be spectacular, but tell us a little bit about the home. We've got a five-bedroom property, four full baths, two powder rooms, your own executive office, a detached private gym, all about 8,000 square feet here in Carlsbad. Where should we start? I think we should start right here in the entry. Very nice. Almost 20-foot ceilings. Check these out, Ty. Wow. Wood beams, these detailed lighting pendants are world-class. The stonework on the walls over here, really true to the Tuscan architecture, kind of timeless. And just really spectacular. It really is. It's a trophy property for sure. Let's head in the living room. Here's the view out here, you can see on a nice clear day. Sit here by the piano. It's a really relaxing living room. They've had several fundraising events here, piano going. They've had up to 200 guests here over the years, many times. Here's your formal dining room. Everybody's got to have it with an ocean view, literally top of the hill ocean view here in Carlsbad. This one holds eight people comfortably, a bar for your wine, all right here for you. Wow. You walk in here and just, whoa. This is size. This is elegant. This is what it's all about. Two islands, two sinks. I mean, the detail on the backsplash, the detail on the hood, just world-class stuff. It's amazing. This is what everybody's looking for. Well, you see all the built-in fridges. So here's your built-in fridge. Very nice. And a freezer. And a freezer. Very nice. Nice. But over here, let's do that again. Another fridge. So you got to have dual everything. A dual everything. Just makes it really easy, really convenient for yourself or your chef. Now we go to the next logical place, the family room. Look at the fireplace. Florida ceilings, hand-set stone fireplace. These oversized windows, not only does it let you see that ocean out there, but it lets just the light flood into the room and really gives you that open, airy sense and feeling here. I like wine. Do you like wine? I love wine. So if you're going to have wine, you need to store it properly. Wow. And look at this. I mean, you have some friends over, you bring them down here. This is relaxation. A full sink, stone walls. So now the piece de resistance, 2,400 bottles. 2,400 bottles. Whoever gets this property is going to be one lucky individual. Wow. Look at this. Yeah. I mean, so, so many different statements in this. So many places to enjoy yourself. Fully enclosed, 18 foot ceilings. Wow. Fireplace, granite bar to look at the panoramic sunsets. This was in the driveway from 1933. One of the founding families of Carlsbad picked this lot and this spot. This is indicating it's the highest point in all of Carlsbad. Here it is. Don, this is it. This is what you're looking for. We're on a clear day down to Mexico, up to Dana Point. No problem at all. So wide hallways for parties. Really nice, obviously. Everything is big. Everything is big. And as we enter the master suite, speaking of large and spacious, this is it. This is it. Again, the tall ceilings with the wood beams. This custom mantle fireplace. Built-in media cabinets everywhere. And of course, the ocean. There it is again. So any house this big, obviously is going to have a big bathroom. Stone everywhere. Custom hand laid stone. Jacuzzi tub. His and her closets built in. A nice vanity for the lady of the house there. The detail in the shower, to me, is amazing. The stonework, you can tell that that's hand set, but they took their time and attention to detail. It was really, really impeccable. So this is where the current owner spends all of his time. He loves his outdoor living. Oh man, and you can see why. Real wood beam ceilings, built-in heaters, television, stone fireplace. Seating for what? 15 people, just right here. Could fit 12 people in this jacuzzi at night. This pool is great. The current owner built this, what they call Baja Ledge. Okay. So you can sit there and there's built-in umbrellas can go in there. So you just relax, enjoy your time. Look at these Hollywood hedges, they're called. So thick, so lush, like 14 feet high. Yeah. Talk about the privacy you get here at the top of the Hill of Carlsbad. And that's really what everybody's looking for. Privacy, sun, and fun. Built-in fire pit. Another seating area for your parties. Let's play some putting. All right. Well, what are the house rules here? You always let the listing agent win. There we go. We'll see about that guys. All right. Never played golf in a suit before. Oh. Did he really? Don, I'm sorry. So what do I win? The home? Maybe. Good game. That was good. For some reason, I always seem to win. Well, Don, I'm in love with the home, but let's go jump in the show helicopter. Let's take a look at the property from the air and have a little bit of fun. Let's go do it. So here we are over the property. Being up here really shows you are buying a compound when you get this home. Yes, indeed. Located at the highest point in Carlsbad. That's quite evident up here from the sky. In the backyard, you cannot beat it. This is true resort-style living here. It's called the pinnacle of Carlsbad, is what I've said many times. And the ocean views are unsurpassed. Probably about a three-minute drive here to Carlsbad High. This is a great area to raise a family in as well. No question. My clients and current owners raise all their children here, all at the Carlsbad High. And it's truly a community that we all can be proud of. There's so much that the village has to offer. It's really coming into its own. A lot of fine dining restaurants coming in. A restaurant called Campfire is coming in, and he was a formal general manager of Ironside Oyster down in the Middle East. Now, Don, as we're flying down the coastline, I mean, look at the water. I mean, this is beautiful. So amazing. So lucky to be up here today. All right, Don. Beautiful home. Love Carlsbad. Love the beach and everything that the area has to offer. So thank you. Oh, thanks for coming, Ty. It was a great time. Glad I got to show you our special town.
