Nestled in the serene enclave of North Pacific Beach, the Leondis Residence stands as a striking example of mid-century modern design, conceived by the visionary C. Ed Schuetz. This architectural gem offers a seamless fusion of form and function, with sweeping panoramic ocean views visible from the living room, kitchen, dining area, and expansive patios. The home serves as both a tranquil retreat and an ideal setting for lively gatherings, with open-concept spaces that flow effortlessly into the outdoors.
The living room, a true centerpiece, invites intimate conversation around a sculptural slump-stone wood-burning fireplace beneath an elegantly open-beam ceiling. Soft, indirect lighting enhances the room’s inviting atmosphere, elevating the experience of quiet repose or spirited socializing.
The surrounding grounds are a true sanctuary, a gardener’s paradise alive with an eclectic mix of fruit-bearing trees—avocados, persimmons, loquats, pomegranates, apricots, guavas, lemons, and oranges—while tranquil water features punctuate the landscape.
Practicality meets beauty in the form of abundant storage, tucked away in the basement crawl space and the lanai beneath the patio deck. This stunning wood-and-glass time capsule presents a rare opportunity to live within a thoughtfully crafted work of art. Mid-Century Homes with this many original elements are increasingly hard to come by.
