Coldwell Banker Announces Highest Priced Home Sale in La Jolla
Torrance, CA – May 31, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has announced the sale of the first oceanfront and highest priced home to sell in La Jolla this year at $5.45 million, according to the San Diego Multiple Listing Service (MLS). Public records indicate that the four-bedroom, seven-and-a-half bathroom home located at 5204 Chelsea Street was purchased by Heath A. Carr, chief executive officer of Fibrwrap Construction, LP.
“There is no doubt that this sale is indicative of a more positive outlook in the residential real estate market, and particularly on the luxury front,” said Rick Hoffman, president and chief operating officer of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage in San Diego and Temecula Valley, who is predicting a pick-up in sales throughout 2012.
According to listing agent Irene Kuster McCann, the 6,733-square-foot, custom-built home boasts 90-feet of ocean frontage, helping lend to its moniker, which is translated to, “House by the Sea.” La Jolla architect Mark Lyon supplied some of the home’s finishing touches, which include a spacious backyard patio and a large balcony offering views of the entire coastline south to Point Loma. The home also features expansive windows and French doors in each room yielding spectacular ocean vistas.
Located in the historic Bird Rock neighborhood of La Jolla, the property was named the 2011 “Holiday House” by the San Diego Association of REALTORS®, and served as a venue for events promoting charitable efforts during the holiday season. Nearly $10,000 in donations and monetary gifts were collected in the annual event and benefitted multiple charities that assisted San Diego’s children, military families, homeless and senior citizens with a variety of toys, household items and more.
As the company behind these remarkable oceanfront listings and sales, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage has been involved with the home sales and purchases of some of the country’s most luxurious properties.
