Nestled into the San Diego hillside, this sprawling home is something nearer to an estate. We’ll let you decide whether you’d like to enjoy the impeccable views over the valley from the bedroom, dining table, pool or tennis court. Wake up with breakfast on the deck and then soak in even more Southern California sunshine on a lounger by the pool. Cool off with a dip before a heated match of tennis – the champion will have to defend themselves at the pool table later. While the playground, pool, and court alone are reasons to stay here, we can’t get over the inside of the home – a blend of antique furniture, modern glass doors, Spanish chandeliers, and high wooden ceilings make time indoors equally well spent. With stone walls, rooms flooded with light and hand-crafted wooden beds you and your family and friends will feel like royalty. As the evening nears, light up the barbecue and watch the sky change colors. And of course, if you somehow run out of things to do, you’re right above one of California’s biggest cities, with plenty of dining, culture and nightlife to keep you busy.
