1371 San Elijo Avenue, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, CA 92007

Perched over the Pacific in Cardiff by the Sea's coveted Composer District, this 3,603 square foot residence commands a sweeping stretch of coastline, offering daily views from Pipes to Swami's from nearly every vantage point. Recently and painstakingly refreshed for new residents, the home blends timeless coastal architecture with a clean, modern sensibility. A wraparound terrace and rooftop deck create seamless indoor outdoor living, framing uninterrupted ocean vistas ideal for entertaining, sunset evenings, or quiet mornings above the surf. The second level is fully oriented toward the water, where a chef's kitchen appointed with Monogram appliances, dual ovens, and a generous island flows into an inviting family room set against the horizon. A separate living room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace offers a more formal space, equally defined by its panoramic views. On the main level, the primary suite serves as a private retreat, featuring soaring ceilings, a sitting area, a spa like bath, and a spacious walk in closet, all positioned to capture the coastline. Designed for both flexibility and comfort, the home includes four bedrooms and three bathrooms, with two additional guest rooms connected by a Jack and Jill bath. Thoughtful upgrades including three fireplaces, a full home sprinkler system, and water leak detection with automatic shutoff add ease and peace of mind. Moments from the shops and dining of Cardiff and Encinitas, and a short walk to Swami's, this is coastal living at its most elevated, where design, location, and lifestyle converge.
