Among only 73 homes George Bissell ever built across the entire city, this rare coastal gem stands as a living testament to mid-century architecture at its most soulful. For those who have searched tirelessly for something truly irreplaceable, the search ends here. Perched in a breathtaking hillside enclave just one mile from the ocean, this masterpiece has been lovingly updated while honoring every intentional detail Bissell poured into its bones. Sunlight floods the open, flowing interior the moment you arrive — an immediate reminder of why mid-century design endures. Three bedrooms, each with their own outdoor access, and two full bathrooms offer generous, gracious living. The reimagined kitchen stuns with honed Taj Mahal stone countertops, a central island perfect for gathering, and a galley layout that pours effortlessly into the dining and living spaces. A La Cantina bifold servery window dissolves the boundary between inside and out, transforming every occasion into an effortless celebration of California living. The primary suite is pure sanctuary — ceiling fan, a wall of closets, and a spa-inspired ensuite with stone tile, dual vanities, and a walk-in shower. Rich wood floors carry warmth throughout, while chandeliers and recessed lighting add a polished, contemporary spirit. A flexible front bedroom opens via glass sliders to the yard, and the guest bath impresses with travertine finishes, dual sinks, and a shower-over-tub. Outside, a private deck off the family room leads to a serene yard lush with mature plantings and fruit trees. Exotic palms grace the front, while dramatic garage doors and front balconies announce the home's bold character. Original floating concrete stairs ascend to the main level, where post-and-beam construction, soaring glass expanses, and a fireplace whisper of Bissell's genius. No HOA. No Mello-Roos. World-class beaches, resorts, and schools moments away. Only 73 were ever built — and this one is waiting for you.
