La Jolla Real EstateLocated 10 miles north of downtown San Diego, La Jolla is one of San Diego’s most prized communities, known for its beaches, fine dining, shopping, and multi-million dollar homes. La Jolla’s communities include Mt. Soledad, the Beach & Barber tract, Birdrock, the Muirlands, La Jolla Farms, and the UCSD area. The village of La Jolla, its downtown area, is home to the La Jolla Cove, as well as art galleries, boutiques, and an array of coastal condominiums. La Jolla’s development is limited by its geography with Pacific Beach to the south, University City and Rose Canyon to the east, and the cliffs of Torrey Pines to the north. There are only a few planned communities, most of which are on Mt. Soledad, with the majority of the housing comprising custom homes and condominiums. La Jolla still has a few of its original beach cottages, dating to the early 1900s, but those not designated as historic landmarks are frequently razed and replaced by new homes. Much of La Jolla’s architecture bears Spanish and Mediterranean influences. New construction is usually of lavish estate style homes. Condominiums are principally found along the beaches, including several on Coast Boulevard, all offering spectacular whitewater views. La Jolla has several private schools as well as a highly rated public school system. It frequently appears on various magazines’ lists of the best places to live in the U.S. |
