About 5497 Coral Reef

Remodeled Coastal Retreat in La Jolla. Welcome to your dream home — where the laid-back California beach lifestyle of Pacific Beach meets the refined elegance of La Jolla living. Tucked into a quiet, secluded enclave, this stunning 6-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence offers 2,764 square feet of beautifully curated and recently remodeled interiors on a generous 9,300 square foot lot. Here, sophisticated design meets effortless coastal charm — delivering modern luxury, award-winning La Jolla schools, and beachside convenience at a price point rarely seen for a home of this caliber. Comprehensively remodeled in 2023, the home features a gourmet chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, and a full suite of premium JennAir appliances—perfect for entertaining or enjoying everyday meals in style. Rich hardwood flooring flows through the main living spaces, complemented by a cozy gas fireplace and built-in shelving in the formal living room, adding both warmth and architectural character. The reimagined primary suite and upper-level bath offer a peaceful retreat with comfort-focused, elevated finishes. The flexible floor plan is ideal for today’s lifestyle — accommodating remote work, multigenerational living, or simply providing ample space for everyone to thrive. Step outside to a newly completed backyard oasis (landscaped in 2025), offering the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining, play, or quiet relaxation—surrounded by mature landscaping and tranquil privacy. With elevated design elements, refreshed systems, and thoughtful upgrades throughout—including updated plumbing and electrical (2023), fresh trim paint, and central air and heat — this residence is fully turnkey. Ideally situated just minutes from the sand, surf, and local hotspots of both La Jolla and Pacific Beach, you'll enjoy the best of both worlds—tucked away from the bustle, yet close to everything. Served by top-rated La Jolla Elementary, Muirlands Middle, and La Jolla High School. Additional Features Include: 3-car attached garage and driveway accommodating 6 total vehicles; No HOA dues; Ample interior storage; Pride of ownership evident throughout; Termite clearance (2025) reflects pride of ownership. A rare opportunity to own a move-in ready La Jolla residence of this scale, quality, and setting—offered at unmatched value in one of Southern California’s most coveted coastal communities.
