Ryan Getzlaf recently sold his home in Corona Del Mar; initially listed at $7.2 million in the spring, the asking price had been reduced to $6.5 million before entering contract for $6.025 million. Getzlaf purchased the home in 2015 for $6.1 million, so the sale represents a minor loss.

The Cal-Med ranch-style home measures about 5,400 square feet, and contains four bedrooms and five baths. It is designed for free and abundant interior-exterior flow, with substantial resources for those who enjoy entertaining: amenities include a lounge and bar, and terrace space that wraps around the home.

Taking best advantage of the Pacific vistas, the tones are generally blanched, and a little washed-out, giving the ranch an airy, beach-house appeal. The kitchen is modern and bright, with seating at the breakfast counter and the island too. The master bedroom is plain but expansive, with glass doors that open to the terrace.

The exterior of the property features raised, vine-covered rusticated-stone plantings, and a narrow strip of a private outdoor banqueting area hemmed in by hedgerow; a bit tight, but cozy in the evening. The tiled pool area is very comfortable, but the exterior’s real appeal rests in its terraces, which offer meditative ocean views.

Ryan Getzlaf began his hockey career as a very young man: born in Saskatchewan, he began playing professionally while in his middle teens. A top skater, he was a first round draft pick for the Anaheim Ducks in 2003, and is an Olympic gold-medal winner twice over.
