About This Home

As of July 2024

Introducing 1600 Galaxy - a striking architectural masterpiece that exudes a perfect fusion of classic mid-century elegance and contemporary luxury. Situated on a sprawling 9,500 SF corner lot in the highly coveted Dover Shores neighborhood, this property is a true gem. As you step inside you will find impressive 2-story front doors that lead to a light-filled living area, adorned with floor-to-ceiling windows and high ceilings. An office makes way to the primary bedroom where high ceilings continue and lead to a spa-like ensuite bathroom, featuring dual sinks, a custom-tiled oversized shower, and a decadent soaking tub. The dining area flows seamlessly into the kitchen that provides a large island, stainless steel appliances, white oak flooring, and an adjacent family room with breathtaking views of the Back Bay. In the secluded front courtyard, you will find a resort like pool, multiple seating areas, and a built-in BBQ - an entertainer's delight! This spectacular property also features remarkable wood beams, a spacious laundry room, a putting green, solar panels, and a 3-car garage complete with epoxy floors. There is an additional 186 SF bonus room off the garage (not included in square footage) that is perfect for a secondary office space. The Dover Shores HOA amenities include access to 3 private resident-only beaches. 1600 Galaxy is in the Mariners Elementary School district and is located just minutes away from the conveniences of 17th Street, John Wayne Airport, famous beaches and all the shopping/dining Fashion Island has to offer!
