The view at this house is amazing!! It is an easy walk to La Jolla cove, and there is a lovely little walking path nearby that goes along the coast. It was our preferred way to get to the cove and the shops/restaurants nearby. The street the houses located on is quite busy... you don't hear it inside the house or on the balcony. We did not rent a car, so it wasn't an issue, but be aware that there is a lot of traffic, so pulling out of the driveway might be a challenge. For those using Uber/Lyft, I would suggest walking down to a cross street for pick-up where it's easier for your driver to turn around. We loved the dog that lives in the house! He slept with me one night, and I loved it. :)
