About the Property
A rare expression of late Mid-Century Modern design, this exceptional home celebrates an era when architecture, landscape, and lifestyle were thoughtfully intertwined. Built in 1971 as a private estate for the owners of Straw Hat Pizza, the home reflects a timeless appreciation for natural materials, intentional design, and a seamless connection to the outdoors. Set on an elevated corner lot within a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted San Pasqual Valley, the property offers an extraordinary single-level floor plan designed for effortless SoCal living. Originally designed by architect Roger Kerr, the single-level residence has been meticulously restored and reimagined with a passion for its late Mid-Century Modern design. Gorgeous original Lauan wood doors with period hardware, rich walnut wood paneling, volcanic stone, raised ceilings, oversized eaves, expansive windows, and natural stone surfaces preserve the home's architectural character while creating a warm and sophisticated space. The grounds unfold like a private retreat, with a sparkling pool, original vintage diving board and slide, a fully illuminated regulation tennis court, a 9' x 16' Santa Barbara Redwood greenhouse, intimate fire pit, and beautifully composed gardens. Bordering a serene avocado grove, the landscape is enriched by plumeria, citrus, a small grove of established sculptural Banksia integrifolia, and native plantings. A fully paid solar system provides great efficiency with no electric bill and additional returns through SDG&E. A separate gated entrance offers flexibility for RVs, horse trailers and flat usable land for horses. Located less than four miles from the San Diego Wild Animal Park, every element of the property reflects a balance of preservation and refinement, a timeless Mid-Mod estate where design, natural beauty, and modern California living abound in perfect harmony.
