This home sits in an open meadow just east of Highway 1. Scenic hiking trails are accessible from the property, Del Mar’s heated outdoor pool, tennis courts, and saunas are less than a half-mile walk from the house, and the oceanfront Bluff Trail is only a block or so beyond that.

Enter by way of a sheltered courtyard, where you’ll find the hot tub, a gas grill, and cushioned outdoor seating to enjoy in the afternoon sunshine. Inside the main part of the home, you’ll be greeted by a two-story great room...
