About this home
Architecturally Stunning! This mid-century modern home designed by the late Robert Des Lauriers, a visionary inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright. Known locally for Vista’s First Lutheran Church on Foothill (1962), Des Lauriers believed in “creating, serving, and preserving the way of life of the Transition Period”—a philosophy beautifully reflected in this one-of-a-kind residence. Tucked behind a bold stacked flagstone wall lies a home that doesn’t just make an impression—it makes a statement. This truly special mid-century modern home stuns with bold architectural lines and an effortlessly swanky vibe. Step through the grand double-door entry with custom leaded glass windows into a space where design and detail shine. The home lives like a single story, with the primary suite, spacious secondary bedroom, chef’s kitchen, and main living areas all on the entry level—perfect for ease and comfort. The living room centers around a massive fireplace with a striking copper hood, while a wall of east-facing windows floods the space with natural light by day and frames glittering city lights by night. The open-concept layout flows into the dining area and kitchen, where concrete countertops stretch endlessly and culinary dreams come true with three ovens and two stovetops—gas and electric. The kitchen is elevated by open shelving made from 150-year-old Black Walnut, sourced from Boise and custom-milled in Escondido—a stunning nod to craftsmanship. Solid Hickory flooring in the living and dining rooms adds warmth and richness. Step out onto the expansive Trex and glass-panel deck that spans the length of the home—ideal for morning coffee or evening cocktails overlooking the lush backyard and classic kidney-shaped pool. Descend the whimsical “staircase of love”—a circular iron showpiece—to the lower level, where a large family room, third bedroom, and full bath await. With direct access to the backyard oasis, this level is perfect for guests, gatherings, or relaxing poolside. Located just minutes from downtown Vista, enjoy proximity to restaurants, pubs, the 78 freeway, Civic Center, library, and Brengle Terrace Park. A rare blend of preserved character and thoughtful updates, this home offers a lifestyle that’s equal parts laid-back and luxurious.
