About This Home

As of December 2020

Enjoy the prestige of an address behind the guarded gates of Marblehead’s Summit at Highland Light in San Clemente, where this upgraded luxury home offers panoramic ocean and city-light views. An elevated homesite of approximately 15,000 square feet allows ample room for a spacious front-yard patio, covered entry porch, a three-car garage with large driveway for guest parking, and a view-enriched backyard with covered patio and fresh plantings. Two-story ceilings tower over the formal entry and fireplace-warmed living room, accentuating an elegant curving staircase. Wood flooring flows throughout a first level that displays a formal dining room with bay window, a family room with fireplace, and an upgraded kitchen with custom white Shaker cabinetry, an ocean-view nook, a peninsula, pantry, stone countertops, full tile backsplash and stainless-steel appliances. Approximately 2,652 square feet, the home features five bedrooms and three baths, with one bedroom on the first level and a unique dual-room suite upstairs. Beautiful Pacific Ocean views captivate in a master suite with a walk-in closet, dual sinks, and a wraparound deck with a spiral staircase leading to the yard below. Luxurious carpet graces the staircase and upper floor, with plantation shutters and upgraded moldings adding sophisticated character. Close to Marblehead Elementary School and a sprawling sports park, Summit at Highland Light is moments from beaches, Dana Point Harbor and the San Clemente Pier.
