HOT PROPERTY
Most people want to lose a few
inches. Jenny Craighas dropped a
few thousand square feet.
After slimming the asking price
for her Del Mar compound, the
weight loss guru has sold the
oceanfront property for $22 mil-
lion. That’s $17.5 million shy of the
original asking price, records
show.
Shaped like a hollow rectangle,
the compound wraps around a
courtyard with a pool and spa
before descending to 80 feet of
ocean frontage. Inside, the tan-
colored compound holds five
bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms in
7,625 square feet.
Bright common spaces com-
bine crisp white walls with Saltillo
tile floors and walls of glass across
two stories. A dual-sided fireplace
separates a pair of living areas,
and the main floor also holds a
galley-style kitchen and dining
area.
Up a spiral staircase, the mas-
ter suite has beamed ceilings and a
tile fireplace. Through French
doors, it expands to a wraparound
deck with sweeping ocean views.
A palm-topped beachfront
patio spans the home’s back side.
In the front, a gated driveway with
room for 18 cars leads to a four-car
garage. Two guest suites and an
outdoor kitchen round out the
three-quarter-acre grounds.
Craig, 87, founded her epony-
mous nutrition and weight loss
company in 1983. Combining
weight-loss counseling with per-
sonalized meal plans, Jenny Craig
Inc. has grown to more than 700
brick-and-mortar centers and
3,000 employees.
