DEL MAR, Calif. — A multi-million dollar beachfront home was just sold in Del Mar, making it the most expensive home ever sold in San Diego County.

The eight-bedroom, seven and a half bathroom home was built in the early 1950’s and was sold this week for a record breaking $44.1 million. 

The beach house located at 2490 Sandy Lane boasts a ranch-style design, detached apartment, tennis court and swimming pool. The Del Mar retreat sits on over one acre of land.

The house was sold by Brian Guiltinan, who broke his previous sales record set in 2020 when he sold a $43 million house to Bill Gates, according to the San Diego County Recorder Office.

Hollywood real estate developer C.E. Toberman built the multi-million dollar mansion in the 1950s.

Toberman is also the grandfather of San Diego businessman and politician Charles “Kim” Fletcher, who lived in the home until 2019.

“This property stands as one of the largest beachfront parcels in California and it’s on one of the most beautiful stretches of coastline in America,” said Brian Guiltinan, real estate broker of The Guiltinan Group, which represented both the buyer and the seller in this record-breaking transaction.
