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. $87,500,000 Active

Warm wood, stone, and metal create an ambience that welcomes graciously, room by room. The lower level opens to its own covered view terrace, extending to turf lawns and decking — perfect for sunbathing, lazing, or enjoying a glass of wine through gorgeous sunsets all year round.

Notably, both walls are non-weight-bearing, offering a future owner the flexibility to reopen these spaces to the ocean view, should a more contemporary great-room layout be desired. $22,000,000 Active
