About This Home
As of March 2026Positioned at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac in the hills of San Clemente, this modern coastal contemporary residence is a rare offering defined by privacy, elevation, and sweeping ocean, city-light, San Clemente Island, and Catalina Island views. An oversized driveway leads to a gated courtyard, setting an immediate sense of seclusion upon arrival. Inside, the home has been completely remodeled throughout. Panoramic ocean and city-light views are framed by large expanses of glass, including striking corner windows that wrap the views and fill the interiors with natural light, creating a constant connection to the horizon beyond. The main living level features an open-concept layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining, with the living area warmed by a gas fireplace and seamlessly connected to expansive view decks that extend the interior outdoors. A large ocean-facing deck serves as the perfect setting for hosting and entertaining, offering sunset views and seamless indoor-outdoor flow for gatherings of any size. The chef’s kitchen offers sleek white European frameless cabinetry accented by gold hardware, newer stainless steel appliances, white quartz countertops, and a large center island that anchors the space. Wide-plank white oak flooring runs throughout, complemented by newer doors and windows. Thoughtfully arranged in a reverse floor plan, the home offers two upstairs bedroom suites and two and a half bathrooms including a powder room, while the lower level features two additional bedrooms, including a private downstairs suite with a separate entrance, full bathroom, kitchenette, and dedicated living space, ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or potential ADU use (buyer to verify). All bedrooms enjoy ocean views. Set on an oversized 18,920 square foot parcel, the property offers multiple patios, view decks, and a resort-style fire pit lounge beneath a newly constructed covered pavilion. Custom architectural concrete slabs with decorative river rock inlays define the hardscape, creating clean lines and a modern coastal aesthetic, while the covered structure allows for comfortable anytime gatherings around the fire pit year-round. Parking accommodates up to seven vehicles. Ideally located close to local restaurants and cafés, bikeable to world-class surf at Trestles, and minutes to the beach trail, San Clemente Pier, and sandy beaches. This is a rare combination of design, privacy, and views, and is truly an exceptional coastal retreat.
