The kitchen has a charming built-in breakfast nook. The home sits on a large lot adjacent to a decommissioned City reservoir, which gives it an unusually open, expansive feeling rarely found this close to the coast. Believed to be a 1927/28 work of Lilian Rice, the home retains its original character: white stucco, clay tile, deeply recessed openings, an intimate courtyard, and interiors with the details of a master architect. The house creates a rare opportunity for a buyer looking to put their own stamp on a true La Jolla classic in one of the area's most desirable enclaves.
