1028 Van Nuys St

Located in prime North Pacific Beach on a quiet cul-de-sac, just moments from iconic Tourmaline Surf Park and the Bird Rock village of La Jolla, this custom-designed coastal residence w/ owned solar offers elevated luxury with confidence and poise. Built in 2006 and thoughtfully planned by the original owners, the home features a reverse floor plan intentionally designed to maximize natural light, privacy, and connection to the coastal surroundings. Bonus: 939 additional SF (so total 3411 SF of living space) pavilion (see suppl) w/ additional kitchen, BD/BA, and living room. The main home living spaces are positioned on the second level, where the kitchen, dining area, living room with fireplace, and primary suite create an ideal flow for everyday living and entertaining. From the living room, you will catch ocean views, while high ceilings, solid-core interior doors, Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring, custom plantation shutters, and Hunter Douglas window treatments reflect the quality of construction throughout. The kitchen is a standout, featuring cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a wine refrigerator, a spacious walk-in pantry, and an electric dumbwaiter that runs from the garage to the rooftop deck—making both daily living and entertaining seamless. The primary suite is a relaxing retreat, complete with access to a private lounging patio and a spa-inspired bath featuring a jacuzzi soaking tub, dual showerheads with additional spray nozzles, and beautiful stone finishes. A massive cedar-lined walk-in closet with custom built-ins provides exceptional storage for a complete wardrobe. The lower level offers flexibility with two additional bedrooms, a full hallway bathroom with custom vanity and stone finishes, and a dedicated office that can easily serve as a fourth bedroom—ideal for guests, work-from-home needs, or multigenerational living. A rare bonus is the attached pavilion at the rear of the property, designed to blur the line between indoor and outdoor living. La Cantina glass doors on three sides open the space to the outdoors, while the interior features a well-appointed kitchen with granite countertops and full appliance package, a living room with fireplace, and a spacious bonus room with walk-in closet and ensuite bath. Architectural plans are available for a future owner to pursue ADU conversion, offering flexibility for guest quarters, extended living, or potential rental income. Outdoor living is equally compelling. The backyard is peaceful and private, thoughtfully designed with multiple entertaining levels, gas lines for future outdoor amenities, and an outdoor shower—perfect after a beach day. Completing the property is a four-car garage with a hydraulic lift, generous storage systems, and the convenience of an electric dumbwaiter, a rare combination in this coastal setting. Crowning the home is an exceptional rooftop deck with panoramic views, spanning downtown San Diego, Point Loma, and the Pacific Ocean. Groceries up, drinks up—the dumbwaiter makes rooftop entertaining smart. This is North Pacific Beach living at its most refined.
