2160 Balboa Avenue

The best home in Del Mar just got even better. Originally constructed in 2014, Del Mar's PREMIER HILLSIDE RESIDENCE got a year long "head-to-toe" makeover culminating in November 2024. The results are truly breathtaking: new kitchen, appliances, cabinets, floors, fixtures, bathrooms, stairs, solar, HVAC, etc. What was already the nicest home in Del Mar, was re-built as "NEW" from the inside-out. No expense was spared. The home features 7,393 sf of living space and is perched on a 22,215 sf flat parcel at the highest ridge in Del Mar. A parcel of this size, with sweeping panoramic white water ocean views to the west and unobstructed mountain views to the east, will never come around again. It just doesn't exist. KAA Design Group out of LA had the task of designing a home that was worthy of this landmark property. They didn't disappoint with this SHOW STOPPING warm coastal modern retreat. The exterior of the home features a mix of board formed concrete, rich stained mahogany, and floor-to-ceiling glazing to take-in the white water ocean views from nearly every room in the house. The Main Residence has 4BR and 5BTH (+ 2 PWD). There is a 3BR "Kid's Wing" perfect for large families. There is also a dedicated office, playroom, den, gym, and ample storage. Plus a 1BR detached Casita with kitchenette and separate entrance for visiting guests. HUGE 2,795 sf parking garage with room for 9 cars. The grounds include a vanishing edge pool, jacuzzi, sports court, bocce court, pizza oven, outdoor bar, fire pit, and fireplace. There will never be another home like it in Del Mar. Below is a list of some of the home's other features: - 84 LG 385 watt solar panels (32 kW system) - 6 Tesla Powerwall backup batteries - Separate climate control for all of the home's bedrooms - IQ Air HEPA grade air filtration - Lutron Homeworks system for lighting control - Lutron electric shades in all bedrooms and most common spaces - Dornbracht plumbing fixtures throughout - Whole house filtration and soft water system - Multiple ChargePoint EV chargers in the garage - Perimeter photobeam detection security system - Automatic pool cover on both pool and jacuzzi - Sports court with basketball and pickelball net - Wood fired pizza oven - Covered outdoor room with fireplace - Covered outdoor room with full bar and seating - Two large storage / mechanical rooms
