About This Property

The Sand Castle stands as an unequivocal one-of-one - an irreplaceable waterfront legacy in La Jolla, a property whose scale and seafront relationship can never be re-created. More than a residence, it is a singular chapter of the Pacific Coast: a masterpiece where privacy, provenance, and prestige converge.   Architecturally and experientially, the South-of-France manor-inspired landmark seems to float above the Pacific. Expansive glass, terraces, and sweeping vantage points dissolve the boundary between interior and ocean, creating continuous panoramas where sky and water meet. Extraordinarily, the property includes one of California's only private beaches - a secluded, sandy escape for quiet morning reflections, play, and private gatherings.   Though grand in stature, with a Main House, Guest Residence, and meticulous and extensive grounds, the high-security property lives with an intention and ease of remarkable livability. Landscape and architecture converge to offer interior and exterior spaces for contemplative intervals and for hosting impeccable hospitality.   The Sand Castle is a recognized icon; a once-in-a-lifetime, private oceanfront estate with a magnificent heritage and captivating elegance.

The Sand Castle is La Jolla's most iconic waterfront jewel and includes one of the only on-property private beaches in California. A stunning homage to the finest manors on the French Riviera, the inspired and meticulous elegance of the Main House, Guest Residence and expansive grounds provides magnificent living while honoring extraordinary unobstructed views of the Pacific and coastline to the west, north and south. European and bespoke interiors and exteriors perfectly meld with modern conveniences, deftly designed and curated by global interior design icon, Timothy Corrigan. A tone-on-tone palette mirrors the sea and sky while continually orienting the visitor towards the home's dramatic ocean views. No expense was spared in creating The Sand Castle. Multistory, manicured hedges cocoon the property, and upon entry through the magical courtyard and grand front hall, one is called to the water. Private and secure, luxurious and serene, The Sand Castle evokes the most sumptuous of grand hotels, with solid gold gilded rooms, a Thassos-tiled salt-water pool, extensive terraces and patios, an elevator, two marvelous cabanas, fitness center, spa, bespoke statues and chandeliers, firepit, boat bar, and a host of private spaces in which to observe the rolling waves and experience dramatic sunsets. The Sand Castle is truly one-of-a-kind and can never be replicated.
