The value of this home, which boasts roughly 140 feet of ocean frontage, has come roaring back the past few years. It last sold for $8.78 million in 2004; the present sellers are asking $29.5 million.
For that tidy sum, you get some pretty sophisticated amenities, like hand-hewed walnut beams, inlaid flooring, four outdoor fireplaces and a pool with a water slide.
Family members can co-exist in a house like this and not cross paths for days. There's a game room, a movie theater, a gym and two laundry rooms.
Graceful wrought-iron fixtures dot the outdoor space and the Spanish-tile roof, arched veranda, terra cotta jardinières hearken back to the area's colonial history.
La Jolla has nearly ideal climate and residents can spend many happy hours enjoying the mild, dry days, perhaps taking in their Pacific views.
