1921 Torrey Pines Place

Elegance and modern luxury converge in this exceptional Harold Carter-built estate, a striking example of Transitional Colonial architecture situated on a .84-acre lot in the Torrey Pines enclave of North Ridge Estates. An expansive open-concept kitchen, sunroom, and family room create an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen, redesigned in 2024, features two granite islands, custom cabinetry, beveled white subway tile with a diamond mosaic backsplash, new hardwood flooring, and a premium appliance suite including Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Miele dishwasher, wine storage, and GE Cafe range and double ovens. The 17ft ceiling fills the kitchen and sunroom with natural light and frames views of the backyard. A walk-through butler's pantry enhances both convenience and style with a beverage station and dual pull-out pantries. The indoor and outdoor living spaces connect seamlessly from the sunroom to an expansive outdoor deck with a gas firepit overlooking the backyard. Architectural features, including three-piece crown molding, transom windows, and detailed wainscoting are found throughout the home and showcase the craftsmanship. The second-floor primary suite offers a private retreat with vaulted ceilings and a renovated spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a frameless glass shower with marble herringbone tile. A first-floor guest suite with ensuite bath provides comfort and flexibility, while a hidden flex office tucked off the second-floor laundry offers a discreet work-from-home space. The walk-out basement expands the home's versatility with a bonus room featuring a fireplace, full bath, and a bar area complete with a sink, granite countertops, beverage cooler, and wine storage. For both comfort and efficiency, the home includes four HVAC systems with ultraviolet air purification, basement dehumidification and whole-home humidification, a whole-house surge protector, and whole-house water filtration. Additional upgrades include a tankless water heater with recirculator, encapsulated crawlspace, new gutters, Google Fiber, a CPI security system, and a 240-volt electric vehicle charger in the garage. Meticulously updated and maintained, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly enduring home on one of North Ridge's most desirable streets.
