Architectural Elegance Meets Laid-Back Mid-Century Modern Luxury

The OB Overlook’s three-story layout is designed for privacy, inspiration, and connection.

Enter through the your private side-entrance or through the dedicated garage. After a short flight of stairs you'll be transported up to the second floor where you'll find two, large and beautifully appointed bedrooms each with its own private balcony.

The west-facing bedroom features wonderful ocean views and the soundtrack of distant waves. It has a king-sized bed, a sofa bed that converts to a queen, a 49" Sony HDTV, a dedicated workspace, and generous closet space.

The east-facing bedroom has a queen-bed, dedicated lounge chairs for relaxing, its own dedicated workspace, and a walk-in closet.

A spa-inspired bathroom awaits you on this floor as well. Outfitted with luxurious Ann Sacks porcelain tile, white Caesarstone quartz countertops, a glass shower enclosure, a double-sink, and radiant heat floors that keep your feet warm on cool mornings.

Ascend to the third floor, where the home truly opens up. A stunning open-concept living room, kitchen, and dining space: tall ceilings, bamboo floors, and designer furnishings create a light-filled gathering space that flows effortlessly to the outside.

Chef’s kitchen: Fully stocked with high-end appliances, and everything you need to cook or entertain.

Expansive wraparound deck: Your private perch above Ocean Beach. Lounge, dine, or daydream while gazing out toward the Ocean Beach Pier and Pacific Beach Point, north to La Jolla and the sweeping coastline beyond.

With natural ventilation from ocean breezes, sliding glass doors, and casement windows, there’s no need for air conditioning. Cool marine air keep the space comfortable year-round. Radiant floor heating provides a cozy touch during OB’s cooler coastal mornings.

The OB Overlook is also the perfect destination for business travel, remote work, creative retreats, or journaling with an ocean breeze. Business travelers will find everything needed for a productive stay, from high-speed internet/Wi-Fi, easy self check-in and check-out, on-site parking, and just minutes to the San Diego International airport. Whether you’re in town for a short assignment or an extended project, the home is set up to make working on the road seamless.

When the workday is done, you’ll enjoy the same comforts and views that make this space special — panoramic ocean and Mission Bay vistas, nearby dining, and a relaxing, quiet atmosphere to unwind. It’s the best of both worlds: work-ready during the day, vacation-ready at night.

Good to Know
This home is a detached house located behind our primary residence. You'll have complete privacy, your own entrance, and exclusive access to the space and garage. The garage is on the first floor, two bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor, and the living room, dining room, kitchen and half-bath/powder room are on the third floor. Please note, the second garage is reserved for our use as we live in the front house.

Garage Parking:
We offer a private 2-car garage on the east side of the property, though only one smaller or midsize car is recommended due to the steep driveway entry. Larger SUVs or vans may not fit. The property is accessible through the garage or through its own private entry.

No A/C Needed: Thanks to expansive windows and coastal airflow, the home stays naturally cool even during warmer months. We also have oscillating fans for each bedroom in case you need a little extra to cool you off.

Radiant heat flooring: The house stays warm when its cool outside with radiant heat flooring so you or your feet never get cold and you stay nice and warm.

Gas Fireplace: The living room boasts a comfy fireplace that turns on with the flip of a switch for those evenings where you might want an added touch of warmth.
