About this property

Romantic Spanish Home, Private Pool, Walk to Beach

  • ROMANTIC ARCHITECTURE, WALK TO BEACH, LARGE SUNNY BEDROOMS, PRIVATE POOL AND LARGE ENTERTAINMENT AREAS.

    La Jolla of the 1920s—during the era of Old World Spanish Revival design—lends romance and character to this prime beach and village retreat. Beautiful architectural details and stylish décor combine with a superb location, making Casasol the perfect getaway for families and friends. Picture yourself strolling to the beach to watch the sunset, then returning to relax with drinks by the pool.

    This historic property offers spacious rooms, a lush garden, and a private pool—creating both comfort and ambiance for your holiday.
    LOCATION
    Casasol is located near Windansea Beach in La Jolla’s exclusive Lower Hermosa neighborhood. Unlike hillside homes where sidewalks are scarce, this area is ideal for walking, jogging, or bike riding - through the neighborhood and above the beach. You’ll be just an 8-minute walk to the beach or the hamlet of Bird Rock, a 5-minute drive to the Village, and about 30 minutes south to downtown San Diego and the Zoo.

    Architecture & History
    Built in 1928–29 by noted architects Mann & Shepherd, Casasol has been thoughtfully restored and modernized while preserving its original Spanish Revival character. The architects also designed La Jolla’s landmark La Valencia Hotel, with its same Mediterranean romance. Architectural details abound—carved stone benches, leaded glass windows, hand-crafted tiles, high beamed ceilings, a walnut-paneled dining room, and wood and tile floors throughout.

    AMENITIES
    -Pool with adjacent cabana bath
    -Family room with flat-screen TV
    -Gourmet eat-in kitchen with travertine floors, granite & ----Corian counters
    -Exquisite furnishings and high-quality linens
    -Wood-burning fireplace (with gas starter & firewood)
    -Large bedrooms with blackout curtains for restful sleep
    -Dining for 10 in the formal room, 6 in the kitchen, and 6+ outdoors
    -Two folding beds and two Graco cribs for children
    -Beach gear provided: folding chairs, coolers, towels, and toys

    PRACTICAL NOTES
    -Pool service: Wednesdays around 4:00 p.m.
    -Garden care: Friday mornings; extra watering may occur during summer heat
    -Owners maintain a private apartment with a separate entrance in an adjoining building; your access and use of the main house are completely private.

    Casasol blends the romance of 1920s Spanish Revival La Jolla with modern comfort—everything you need for a stylish and memorable holiday by the sea.
