Property Description

Perched on solid bedrock along one of Southern California’s most exclusive stretches of coastline, 5143 Shore Drive presents a truly irreplaceable offering; rare deeded ownership of your own private beachfront, complete with direct steps leading to the sand below. Ideally positioned at the center of a private-access beach and elevated just enough along the bluff to ensure privacy and protection, this home delivers an extraordinary connection to the Pacific, where the shoreline becomes a seamless extension of your backyard. Here, you can walk directly from your home to the sand, explore tidepools, surf Carlsbad’s renowned surf break, or simply stand at the water’s edge as waves lap at your feet—all within the privacy of a beach you own to the median high tide, one of only a handful of such opportunities in all of California. Known as The Villa at Terramar, this iconic coastal residence blends modern Italian design with timeless coastal elegance, offering a flexible floor plan that effortlessly accommodates intimate living and grand-scale entertaining. Every element of the home is oriented to maximize the sensory experience of the ocean—where sight, sound, and proximity converge to create a daily connection to the Pacific that is rare and deeply compelling. Set within Carlsbad’s sought-after Terramar enclave—a coastal destination known for its charming village, Michelin-star dining, scenic boardwalk, and private airport minutes away—this property offers not only a home, but a lifestyle defined by exclusivity, accessibility, and the enduring romance of true oceanfront living.
