Description Mossflower: San Diego

Perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, this home offers spectacular panoramas of crashing waves and the area's famous Bird Rock. The sleek interior doesn't disappoint, either – although the floor-to-ceiling windows guarantee the scenery is always front and centre. We love the enclosed courtyard, with its outdoor fireplace, hot tub and TV screen, and the single-level layout makes socialising a dream. But our favourite spot is by far the oceanfront main bedroom – nothing beats waking up to coastal views each morning. When you're ready to explore, you'll find a few cafes and restaurants nearby, but for more options, make the short drive to La Jolla Village. Beach-wise, Pacific Beach, Windansea and Mission beaches are also within driving distance.

Home truths:
*While some of the bathrooms aren't photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home
*This home is set over a single level with no stairs – it could be a good option for guests with limited mobility
*You'll need a car in San Diego – there's a two-car garage here, plus further parking on the street
*Please note the sliding doors do not have screens
*All guests must be at least 25 years old – excluding children, who need to be accompanied by parents
*There isn't a desk here, but the dining table doubles as a laptop-friendly workspace
