Description

Discover the iconic Waterfall House, a breathtaking architectural gem with indoor waterfalls, 30-foot ceilings, and a central indoor pool. This expansive home features multiple mezzanines, a private primary suite with a spa-like bathroom and detached cottage with its own kitchen. Relax in tranquil courtyards, botanical gardens, and outdoor lounges with a firepit. The house also offers a serene yoga/meditation stage, an abundance of private spaces, and a sense of boundless open-air living throughout. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this architectural gem—originally designed by architect Rob Quigley—returning you to your childhood where your imagination is unlimited by the concept of interior and exterior. Captivating 30+ ft ceilings and a breathtaking waterfall pool flowing through the home create a perfect space for musicians, artists and entertainers alike. The acoustics rival a concert hall, and the natural light—perfect year-round—enhances its potential as an art gallery. A spacious stage by the pool invites performance, artistic expression, or immersive entertainment, making this home unlike any other. Step onto the expansive deck and take in views from dawn to dusk, while multi-level ceilings fill the space with light and airiness. A private 300 sq. ft. guest house with a separate entrance offers a serene retreat or creative workspace. Known as one of San Diego’s most iconic homes, it has captivated millions, with videos showcasing its visionary design garnering over 66 million views. More than just a home, this is a space where imagination, nature, and artistry merge—where life itself becomes an inspired masterpiece and your dream home awaits.
