1411 Via Alta

Del Mar, CA 92014

Casa Alta is a testament to patience, precision, and an unwavering commitment to architectural excellence. In a landscape as protected and storied as Olde Del Mar, a residence of this caliber-conceived by the definitive local duo of architect Brian Church and construction by Joshua Herbst, is a rare achievement that transcends the typical luxury build.  Perched atop a private, lushly wooded parcel, the home offers a vantage point that is both commanding and secluded. The experience is one of a coastal "tree house"-a sophisticated retreat where the Pacific horizon is framed by mature heritage trees, evoking the timeless, grounded elegance of Montecito or Pebble Beach. Complete with all the latest smart home technologies & an elevator that services all levels, this property offers 5 bedrooms, multiple covered deck spaces, an office, a stunning lap pool, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, pool bathroom, turf lawn yard space, lush landscape, citrus trees & more. Every material curated for this residence has been thoughtfully chosen. John McCulley, a visionary for a coastal modern aesthetic, handled the interior design. This property features panoramic ocean views & is located within walking distance to the beach & all of downtown Del Mar's best restaurants, shops & attractions. Perfectly positioned in the hills of Olde Del Mar, this exceptional residence rises above the energy of the village—offering effortless access to everything you love, without the noise or congestion. Do not miss the opportunity of a lifetime to own a prime piece of land with a stunning new construction residence in San Diego's best zip code!
