Step into a masterpiece of early California architecture—this extraordinary home, personally designed and built by renowned architect Richard Requa, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of San Diego’s rich architectural heritage. As the visionary behind many of the city's most iconic Spanish Revival homes, Requa meticulously crafted this residence as his own retreat, blending Old World elegance with the warmth of timeless design. Tucked away on a picturesque street in Point Loma, this home exudes character and charm from the moment you arrive. The hand-carved woodwork, intricate tile detailing, showcase Requa’s masterful attention to detail, while the thoughtfully designed layout invites natural light to illuminate every space. The heart of the home is its stunning living room, where a grand fireplace serves as a focal point beneath dramatic wood-beamed ceilings, creating an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication. French doors open onto a private courtyard, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living—an essential element of Requa’s signature style. The lushly landscaped grounds offer peaceful seclusion, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. This is more than a home—it is a living piece of art, a sanctuary steeped in history, and an unparalleled opportunity for those who appreciate architectural significance, craftsmanship, and a connection to San Diego’s past. Owning this home means embracing a lifestyle where beauty, heritage, and authenticity come together in perfect harmony.
