Ocean House Del Mar, a $75 million estate and the last remaining oceanfront properties rooted in Del Mar’s storied past, is now on the market. Originally acquired by a California family in the 1930s, this new-era beach house celebrates the coastal lifestyle. Constructed with luxurious, marine-grade materials, the residence combines resilience with a refined aesthetic, without the burden of upkeep, according to a news release.
Considered some of the most exclusive real estate in North County San Diego, Ocean House Del Mar is one of 83 oceanfront properties along this pristine stretch of coastline. This area, known for record-breaking sales, has been home to some of Southern California’s most distinguished estates and prominent residents, including the Gates family. With roots as a small village by the sea, Del Mar retains a rare charm of Early California while satisfying a new era of buyers seeking the region’s enviable wellness pursuits and lifestyle.
Designed by award-winning architect William Hefner with interiors by Jeffry Weisman and Bryn Brugioni of Fisher, Weisman, Brugioni, the property spans 30,491 square feet, encompassing a main house, two guest houses, and carefully curated spaces for privacy, family connection, and relaxation. This property is exclusively listed by Rande Turner of Rande Turner Collective with Pacific Sotheby’s International Realty.
· “This property is one of one. It took over 12 years from concept to completion and current replacement cost is aligned with the list price if one ventured down this path today,” said Turner in the news release. “We are extremely confident in the depth and demand of the North County coastal market in 2025. Ocean House is a legacy property; once sold it may not be available for generations to come.”
The property, located on a rare beachfront lot that remained undeveloped for nearly 100 years, became the foundation for a new coastal estate. Following more than 12 years of planning and construction, Ocean House Del Mar is now a completed, turn-key residence designed for immediate occupancy. Building a comparable property today would require significant time and investment, underscoring the estate’s rarity and value in the current market.
