The “Helmshurst” estate delivers sensational Pacific Ocean views embracing San Diego’s world famous coastline. You will be mesmerized by sit down sunset water views of La Jolla from the west facing windows on both floors extending as far as the eye can see. This rare seaside estate rests on a private, secluded, wooded 27,878 square foot lot overlooking the magnificence of La Jolla Cove and the Shores. Built in approximately 1905, it was formerly owned by the icons of Helms Bakery fame, reportedly constructed to be a family beach get away in the first part of the 1900s. The location and its many unique original features make it one of La Jolla’s most interesting homes. The archetypal shingle style of architecture reflects La Jolla’s eclectic vibe. Its prime location, walking distance to world-class beaches, shopping and dining, makes this magical sanctuary a vintage home to be coveted. Taking advantage of dedicated easements on 3 sides, it is ready to be strategically re-envision and modernized to capture even more of the already spectacular views and continue its story as an iconic property.
