About this home
Offered for the first time, the most iconic oceanfront home in all of Carlsbad—an authentic Italian-inspired villa where timeless elegance meets rare beachfront ownership. Nestled within the coveted Terramar community, this extraordinary 6 bedroom estate offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to not only live at the edge of the Pacific but to own the beach itself. Wake up to the sound of waves lapping just beyond your terrace and enjoy sun-drenched mornings with ocean breezes and panoramic coastal views. Designed for luxurious coastal living, the home features dual oceanfront primary suites, including one with a lavish “See to the Sea” oversized shower. A separate 2 story private-entry casita with ocean views adds flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or income potential. Inside the gated entry, you’re greeted by a lush, romantic courtyard with a bubbling fountain, pond, colorful bougainvillea, and a stunning curved fireplace—setting the tone for the charm and serenity found throughout. Multiple garden vignettes and inviting outdoor seating areas create the feel of a boutique resort, ideal for quiet reflection or entertaining by the sea. Rich wood floors, graceful architecture, and expansive, light-filled living spaces complete the interior, blending old-world character with modern comfort. Voted Home of the Year in 1991 by San Diego Home and Garden, this landmark property isn’t just a residence—it’s a coastal legacy. Live the lifestyle others only dream about—beauty, privacy, and unforgettable oceanfront memories await.
