Co-founder of Qualcomm is selling his $60 million estate in Rancho Santa Fe

Hello Hello World!
All of us, San Diegians, are aware of the existence of Qualcomm, the global corporation with headquaters in San Diego. Co-founder of this huge company, Andrew Viterbi, has listed his 26,000 square feet house in Rancho Santa Fe for $60 million. Andrew Viterbi is a developer of Viterbi Algorithm, that is commonly used in satellite and wireless technology.   The previous owner, Gene Klein ( owner of San Diego Charges) built his estate on 33 prestigious acres in 80's and Mr. Viterbi bought the estate in 2000. 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. There are two beautiful gardens on the property with plants from South America, South Africa and Australia and.....1500 lemon trees! Since Andrew is in technology field, the garden design include LED lightening system and the owner installed solar panels. According to the owner, the electricity bill is very low.



Guy Dreiler is a designer of some furniture pieces in the house that are not included in the price. 


The features of the house include  elevator, tennis court, 8 car garage, steam shower, basketball court, 6 bedroom and 7 bathrooms, 2 bedroom guest house. The owner sells it because the house is empty and he is the only one who lives in it since his wife passed away in February.  Please see pictures of this estate below:)  Enjoy!
