La Jolla Shores Homes

When people think of La Jolla, the prestigious beachside community in San Diego, the picture called to mind is often one of the quintessential Southern California shore: white sand beaches, turquoise waters, long piers jutting out into rolling waves, surfers waxing their boards under a clear azure sky. This is the ideal image of breathtaking La Jolla Shores. Situated on the long curve of La Jolla Bay, La Jolla Shores homes offer access to one of the most active and attractive neighborhoods in the greater La Jolla area.

La Jolla Shores is bound to the west by a beach of the same name; with its gentle waves, La Jolla Shores beach is one of the safest in San Diego for swimming, diving, and snorkeling. The beach also features San Diego's only beachfront boat launch, making it a favorite spot for kayakers and jet skiers. Adjacent is the San Diego La Jolla Underwater Ecological Reserve, and the Scripps Institute of Oceanography and Scripps Pier occupy the northern end of the beach. There is a busy commercial district on Avienda de la Playa, where a collection of shops, restaurants and professional service businesses serve owners of La Jolla Shores homes as well as visitors and guests.

La Jolla Shores homes are as varied and eclectic as their residents. Here, you'll find a fine selection of condominium properties, including a few high-rise developments that take full advantage of the spectacular ocean views. As one might expect, beachside homes are sprawling, multi-million dollar properties. Homes on the hillsides overlooking the beach and La Jolla Cove are similarly priced, and highly coveted. On the streets behind the beach and Avienda de la Playa, you'll find moderately sized beach cottages and larger custom homes with prices starting around $1.3 million.
