Property Description
The Peterson Residence, c. 1965. Designed by Master Architect Russell Forester for visionary entrepreneur Robert O. Peterson, founder of Jack in the Box, this exceptional Mid-Century Modern estate is being offered for the first time in over 24 years.
A quintessential example of Post and Beam architecture, the residence showcases Forester’s hallmark minimalism, clean lines, and seamless integration with the surrounding natural environment.
Tucked away in the coveted Wooded Area/La Playa of Point Loma and nearly hidden from view, this exceedingly private 1.69-acre family compound comprises four distinct structures: the Main House, Pool House, Guest House, and Guard House—all thoughtfully unified by tranquil water features, mature plantings, and masterful landscape design.
At the heart of the estate lies the pièce de résistance: a breathtaking Koi pond with resident wildlife, a picture-perfect Japanese teahouse, and meandering garden pathways designed to inspire peace, reflection, and connection to nature.
Perched atop a private promontory, the property commands panoramic 180° views of the Bay, Ocean, and City Lights all of the way to Mexico, offering a rare blend of serenity and proximity—just minutes from downtown San Diego, San Diego International Airport, world-class yacht clubs, fine dining, and cultural destinations.
Amenities include: Private pool, spa, gym, sauna, and steam shower Illuminated tennis/sport court for day or night play Basement-level wine cellar, ideal for collectors Four-car garage plus off-street parking for six additional vehicles Owned solar system for enhanced energy efficiency Hobby farm, cutting garden, aviary, and greenhouse for sustainable living and seasonal beauty.
Recognized at the National, State, and Local levels for its architectural and historical significance, the property enjoys substantial property tax savings through the Mills Act.
Timeless in design and rare in provenance, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a storied piece of San Diego history. More than a home, this is an architectural retreat, a wellness sanctuary, and one of San Diego’s most iconic private estates.
