Torrey Hills | Gated Community | 5BD/5BA | Ocean Views | Detached ADU. Some homes check the boxes. This one raises the bar. Tucked within the gated Monte Claire community in Torrey Hills, this thoughtfully reimagined residence offers a rare combination: ocean views, canyon preserve access, a detached ADU/Casita, and top-rated schools—all in a home that's been elevated to a genuinely high standard. The main home was remodeled by a respected design-build firm, and the attention to detail shows. The kitchen anchors the living spaces with custom cabinetry, soapstone countertops, and high-end appliances that open naturally to the dining and family areas. Herringbone hardwood floors, designer fireplaces, custom lighting, and Hunter Douglas automated shades give the interior a cohesive, lived-in elegance. Other smart home features—Nest climate control, Rachio irrigation, and a full security system—run quietly in the background, the way good design should. The layout is both functional and versatile. A bedroom and full bath on the main level offer easy guest accommodation, while upstairs holds 3 additional bedrooms, a dedicated office, and 3 full baths. The primary suite faces the ocean—a view that never gets old. And set completely apart from the main home, a fully detached 1-bed/1-bath ADU with its own kitchenette offers genuine separation—ideal for multigenerational living, long-term guests, or a private work-from-home retreat. Out back, a heated saltwater pool, fireplace lounge, and glass-fenced patio create a space built for both entertaining and unwinding—with mature landscaping for privacy and Los Peñasquitos Canyon Preserve as your permanent backdrop. Extensive owned solar serves both the home and pool. Minutes to Torrey Pines Golf Course, Del Mar Highlands, Downtown Del Mar, and the coast. Del Mar Union and San Dieguito Union High School Districts. This is the kind of home people remember.
