Rooted in the Scandinavian philosophy of Friluftsliv—a life lived in harmony with the outdoors—this extraordinary mid-century modern retreat is more than just a house' it is an experience. Thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt from the inside out, every inch has been touched by an extensive remodel that elevates both form and function. Stepping inside, you’ll be captivated by the open, light-filled spaces, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping mountain views and invite nature in. The home has been completely transformed, with a new roof, plumbing, electrical, and foundation (since 2021), as well as engineered hardwood floors, motorized custom window shades (2024), and a Sonos surround sound system that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living. A reverse osmosis water filtration system ensures the purest drinking water, while double washers and dryers provide convenience for a busy household. Outside, the landscape has been completely reimagined, featuring a lush, flat lawn, a brand-new pool, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a built-in BBQ, bar, and fridge—all designed to embrace San Diego’s year-round sunshine. Timed landscape lighting enhances the beauty of the space after sunset, and mature avocado and lime trees add to the natural abundance. But perhaps the greatest joy of this home is watching the variety of birds and wildlife that visit each afternoon, a reminder of the serenity that defines this property. Currently offering three bedrooms, two baths, a dedicated office, and a versatile playroom, the home also has the potential to expand to a five-bedroom, three-bath layout (plumbed and ready). Every detail has been designed for both beauty and effortless living, creating a sanctuary where modern luxury meets the tranquility of nature. This is more than just a home—it is a lifestyle, a place where memories are made around the firepit, where the simple act of being outside brings joy, and where the essence of Friluftsliv is truly lived.
