Explore La Jolla Bird Rock

In many ways the community of Bird Rock is often thought of as a small town within the city of La Jolla. Geographically, it is located in the southernmost section of La Jolla and borders Tourmaline in Pacific Beach. Bird Rock derives its name from the large white rock situated in the Pacific Ocean on which marine birds roost. Bird Rock is also known for the numerous surfing and diving spots along the coastline. Bird Rock also has its own thriving commercial area with quaint shops and world class restaurants lining La Jolla Boulevard. The homes that comprise Bird Rock were primarily built before 1950, although there are isolated remodels and newer homes. In many ways Bird Rock is viewed as an entry level market for La Jolla as the average prices are slightly lower than the northern parts of La Jolla. However, these “starter” homes are still priced anywhere from $600,000 to $3,000,000. Homes on the western side of La Jolla Boulevard tend to be the most expensive as they are closest to the ocean. This is a great neighborhood for families looking to take advantage of coastal living and La Jolla schools. The community is located approximately 10 minutes from downtown La Jolla and is a quick drive or walk to access the beach. Amenities: World famous fine-dining facilities, art galleries and boutiques, short drive or walk to ocean Features: Close proximity to Windansea Beach, ocean diving and swimming, stunning views of the California coastline
