After that, the architect Guy Dreiler and his team spent 7 years to complete this hilltop house. 

Landscape was done by Theresa Clark; she combined technology, natural beauty and art in her work.

"Santa Barbara" Soap Opera Dream House from childhood memories in...Point Loma!

Dear San Diegans,

When I saw this Estate in person, I was blown away by ocean and city views and unique kitchen design. This masterpiece is located in Point Loma, La Playa region. Historically, this place was a harbor, and cargo was loaded (and unloaded) there from 1769 to 1870. After that time, main port was relocated to Downtown that was called New Town that time.  Nowadays, La Playa is one of the most expensive neighborhoods of San Diego County.

This neighborhood has two yacht clubs: San Diego Yacht Club and Southwestern Yacht Club.

This particular house is finished with Jerusalem Stone that keeps house cool at summer and warm during winter time.  Four out of seven luxury bedrooms have ocean views, private elevator, wine cellar for seven thousand bottles, six car garage, and spa – all of these make this Estate very special and spectacular. This 18,500 Sq.Ft. estate was built in 1990, and sits on almost one acre of valuable San Diego land:)

And this picture below reminds me the soap opera from my childhood that was very popular in Russia in 90's and was called " Santa Barbara", pam pa ra paaaaa......

How will your kitchen look like in 10 years?

Hello Hello, My Friends! 

       I want to share with you the idea that IKEA is showing in Milan! This " working" concept idea is still displayed in Italy till October ( So, if you are traveling there, please check it out). This is wonderful, green, and fresh concept just blew my mind. Imagine, those features will be in your kitchen in 10 years! I would love to have table with the projection and oven top at the same time! 

        Here is the dining table with the projection on a table and on the screens  showing the recipes with this ingredient! 

French Country Style Castle in Fairbanks Ranch

Hello, San Diegians,

As I promised, I shoot video for you for one of the most " fairytale" looking mansion with 20 foot high front door in Rancho Santa Fe. They said it belongs to the daughter of one of McDonalds founders. This Fairbanks Ranch House was designed by famous local architect Don Edson. The price tag is $5, 590,000 for 14,029 Sq. Ft. , 5 bedroom estate with separate guest house. I wrote an article about Fairbanks Ranch last month, you can read about this community in details HERE . 

La La La! Here is the video for you to enjoy!

Garden, Backyard

I felt like a princess when I visited this " Castle". As you can notice in my video, almost all walls are made of stone.  This is formal living room with gorgeous views to the beautiful garden. 

Spacious Formal Living Room

This is the most spacious and light master bathroom that I have ever seen in Rancho Santa Fe. One unique feature is that there is loft with the room and separate living area. The bathroom has Venetian plaster walls  and stone floors. There are separate closets for both spouses that are so large so you can create an additional office inside the closet .

Del Sur - Luxury San Diego Homes with Pet (!) Rooms and Craft Rooms!

Hello World!

Today I am going to show you new construction homes @ Del Sur ! Del Sur is new master-planned community which sits next to Rancho Santa Fe and very close to my office. Its only 7 miles away from the ocean! Located within Poway School District, Del Sur is one of the most desirable community in San Diego right now.

The development that we are going to see today is called Kingston.  Kingston includes 50 homes that look more like Estates! I was impressed with huuuuuuge kitchens, oversized islands, and beautiful Spanish architecture. All models have at least one bedroom and bathroom downstairs for your convenience.  Ahh….and those spacious  master bedrooms!  My husband, Dima, fell in love with oversized shower that can fit an elephant inside! Yes! That’s how big those showers and master bathrooms are!

I am very crafty person and I love that those homes have craft rooms and wine rooms, haha… Literally, wine rooms are so pretty so you can have a date with your spouse every night!  

1. The first model we went to was Cavalli, that varies from 4,912 to  5,132 square feet. I shoot a video for you, hope you will like it!
