An extraordinary waterfront Tuscan estate in the La Playa enclave of Point Loma, 741 Rosecrans pairs refined luxury living with a perfect connection to the beaches and yacht clubs of Shelter Island. One of the very few residences with direct access to the calm waters of La Playa Cove, launch a paddleboard or kayak into the bay, stroll the shoreline, or walk to the Southwestern Yacht Club and San Diego Yacht Club as well as Humphrey’s concerts, Bali Hai restaurant and Point Loma village. More than $1 million in improvements completed in the last year have elevated this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence to an unrivaled level of luxury, including a 500-bottle wine cellar, sauna, pool with spa, lift, library, whole-home sound system, and electronic gate. Expansive indoor-outdoor living and entertaining spaces frame sweeping bay, downtown skyline and evening-light views complete the resort-like setting. With its Mediterranean architecture, lush grounds and intimate connection to the water, the home evokes the romance of Italy’s Amalfi Coast—reimagined for life on the San Diego Bay. Less than 15 minutes to the airport, Balboa Park & the Zoo, Little Italy, Seaport Village, the Convention Center, Petco Park, and everything else that makes San Diego America's Finest City. The home also offers an incredible vantage point for San Diego’s annual Big Bay Boom Fourth of July fireworks. Private, beautifully updated and remarkably connected to the water, this is more than a home with a spectacular view—it is an opportunity to live the unmistakable California waterfront lifestyle. In Point Loma’s most coveted enclave, La Playa, some homes have a view of the bay. A select few are part of it. 741 Rosecrans is one of those rare gems—an exclusive residence offering an immediate, private connection to the waterfront. Here, San Diego Bay is more than the view—it is part of everyday life. A private gate from the property opens directly onto Bessemer Path, the waterfront walkway connecting the La Playa shoreline, marinas, yacht clubs, restaurants, and Point Loma village. Southwestern and San Diego Yacht Clubs are a short walk down the path. Launch a paddleboard or kayak directly into the calm waters of the bay, walk to the yacht club for dinner, or simply step outside for an evening stroll along the waterfront. More than $1 million in improvements completed within the past year have thoughtfully elevated the 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence. Highlights include a beautifully reimagined primary bath with custom cabinetry, marble surfaces and flooring, and a freestanding soaking tub; a renovated downstairs guest bath; custom illuminated library built-ins; Hunter Douglas window treatments; integrated multi-zone Sonos audio; and numerous smart-home, security and systems enhancements. Extensive improvements continue outdoors, where the pool and spa were replastered and retiled, slate coping was replaced with travertine, the rock waterfall was renovated, and landscaping and exterior elements throughout the property were refreshed. The home offers generous living and entertaining spaces oriented toward the bay and downtown skyline. Three bedrooms, including the primary suite, are located on the entry level, while a private guest suite upstairs provides separation for family and visitors. A three-car garage offers valuable parking and ample storage. Beyond the property, Point Loma offers one of San Diego’s most distinctive coastal lifestyles.
