The Upper Hermosa residence in La Jolla, now on the market for $5.995 million, has the potential for historic designation.
Many of the home’s best qualities are not so much seen as felt, say the sellers, brother and sister, Robert Munroe and Maria Munroe Browne. “A great architect understands the importance of selecting the right site and then integrating a home into that specific site. This house has exactly that sense of scale and space and thus has a tremendous flow. It’s perfectly harmonious with its atmosphere, not only physically but emotionally.
The sellers, along with Robert’s wife, Bonnie, added to this sentiment, saying “It’s an exceedingly formal house, but it’s not pretentious. When you walk in through the front it feels stately and grand but most of the time you walk in through the laundry room and into the kitchen where it feels like home. So it’s very flexible in how it presents itself.”...
Access to outdoor living can also be found upstairs where front and rear balconies offer views encompassing ocean sights. Although a majority of the house has been maintained for its nearly hundred-year existence, various updates throughout the years have taken place, including a kitchen remodel in the 1980s that also resulted in the creation of an additional family room and sunroom.
