Description

The Cory Residence by Colin J. Lunt is a masterwork of elegance and serenity. Surrounded by mature plantings, this Horizon Hills estate, featured in San Diego Magazine, will wow your guests as they arrive through an impeccable carved front door by sculptor James Hubbell. Revel in the best design elements of the 1970s, and those of today including a contemporary kitchen, black-bottom pool, owned-solar and loads of recent updates. Enjoy 180-degree views of the mountains in the daytime and evening-lights views after sunset poolside or from the Bocce court. Delight your friends, family and neigbhors with an array of delicious fruit from the bountiful orchard. Designed by noted local builder Colin J. Lunt (who was featured in San Diego Magazine in 1971), this early ‘70s contemporary estate is among the most amazing homes in all of Horizon Hills Estates. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in unincorporated Mt. Helix, this 1-acre property is zoned for five horses while fenced for the family dog. From the tranquil resort-like atmosphere of the backyard deck and black bottom pool, you can lose yourself in the extensive 180-degree views to the hills and mountains to the east while relishing in the delicious fruit available from an abundantly-producing orchard. Intimate garden spaces are at every turn ranging from quiet seating areas to a robust succulent garden and a wonderful Bocce Ball court. Guests will be blown away as they enter the home through the James Hubbell front door and settle in to the sunken living area and views through expansive glass walls. The chef’s kitchen outfitted with Viking appliances is complimented by a full wet bar and both informal- and formal dining areas. Nighttime coziness abounds with fireplaces in both the living and family rooms delighted by evening-lights views. Sustainability is important – enjoy the benefits of a robust owned-solar system and EV charger in the garage. Plenty of parking is available for your boat, RV and multiple cars on a driveways and paths of interlocking pavers.
