Beautifully positioned on???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? a generous 13,000-square-foot lot in the hills of coveted Del Cerro with commanding vista views extending to the Pacific Ocean. 5873 Madra Avenue has been thoughtfully reimagined to today’s highest standards across nearly 3,750 square feet of refined living space. Designed for effortless main-level living, the interior showcases an open-concept layout anchored by rich, wide-plank oak flooring throughout all living quarters and bedrooms. The principal living and dining spaces center around a gorgeous kitchen featuring a large waterfall island, while a vanishing retractable glass wall seamlessly transitions the room to an expansive view deck framing those incredible coastal vistas. Conveniently sharing this main floor is the primary sanctuary, featuring a spa-inspired bath and direct connection to the outdoor views. For optimal privacy, a separate corridor accommodates a second full suite with custom bath, plus two versatile bedrooms and an adjacent full bath—ideal for an executive office or wellness studio. Below, the lower level delivers exceptional multi-generational flexibility, functioning as a grand entertainment lounge or private guest suite. Outdoors, the broad yard creates a scenic backdrop for hosting, complemented by a 3-car garage and driveway parking for up to 5 additional vehicles. Located in beautiful Del Cerro, just minutes from fine shopping, dining, SDSU, Downtown San Diego, and San Diego International Airport.
