A once-in-a-generation opportunity on .97 acres in the coveted Kate Sessions / Mount Soledad enclave. This elevated lot offers jaw-dropping panoramic views of the ocean, bay, downtown skyline, and nightly SeaWorld fireworks. The possibilities are exceptional: create a landmark legacy estate, explore a lot split under SB 9 or traditional subdivision (buyer to verify feasibility), or reimagine the existing residence. The property features two existing curb cuts, providing valuable design flexibility, and includes preliminary architectural plans for a 10,000+ sq ft custom home. One of only eight parcels of this scale in the Kate Sessions area, this is a rare chance to secure a commanding view property in one of San Diego’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Just minutes to La Jolla, the beach, and top-rated schools—this is coastal living at its highest potential.
