About this home

Sweeping easterly views and effortless elegance are yours from this refined residence tucked within Windemere’s exclusive guard-gated community. Vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and a neutral palette create an ambiance of comfortable sophistication throughout the 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom layout. Flowing living areas are ideal for entertaining and everyday enjoyment, with a well-equipped chef’s kitchen featuring quartz-topped counters, a center island, stainless appliances, and a built-in breakfast nook. The entry-level primary suite offers a large walk-in closet plus two additional closets, and a luxe stone bath with dual vanities, skylights, and a spacious shower with a floral accent wall. Upstairs, a generous bedroom and bath are connected by a catwalk overlooking the living room—lined with bookshelves, creating a cozy loft-style library. Four sets of sliding doors open to a wraparound garden patio with mature landscaping, a built-in barbecue, and a soothing fountain—an inviting setting to embrace the city lights and mountain vistas. The third bedroom is currently used as an office without a finished closet. Thoughtfully designed storage in nearly every space contributes to pristine, organized living. Residents of Windemere benefit from 24/7 guard-gated access and resort-inspired amenities including two pools, a spa, fitness center, lighted tennis & pickleball courts, clubhouse, RV/boat parking, and scenic park-like grounds with walking paths. Perfectly located in the hills of La Jolla, just minutes from The Village, beaches, and a wide array of shopping & dining.

The home is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria, despite the underlying age of the original structure.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Panoramic Views: Located in the exclusive hills of La Jolla, offering sweeping easterly views of city lights and mountains, minutes from The Village, beaches, and dining.
Exclusive Guard-Gated Community: Situated within Windemere, a 24/7 guard-gated community providing enhanced security, privacy, and a sense of exclusivity.
Resort-Style Amenities: Residents benefit from extensive community amenities including two pools, a spa, fitness center, lighted tennis & pickleball courts, clubhouse, and RV/boat parking.
Updated Chef's Kitchen & Luxurious Primary Suite: Features a well-equipped chef’s kitchen with quartz counters, stainless appliances, and a luxe entry-level primary suite with a stone bath and ample closets.
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living: Flowing living areas open to a wraparound garden patio with mature landscaping, a built-in barbecue, and a soothing fountain, ideal for entertaining.

Cons

Bedroom Count Discrepancy/Functionality: The property is listed as 2 beds, but described as a 3-bedroom layout where the third bedroom lacks a finished closet and is currently used as an office, potentially limiting its appeal as a true third bedroom.
Age of Property (1977): While updated, the 1977 build year may suggest older underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that could require future attention or impact energy efficiency compared to newer constructions.
Significant HOA Fees: The property carries a notable association fee of $575.0 per month, which adds a substantial ongoing cost to homeownership, despite the extensive amenities offered.
