About This Home

As of December 2021

A work of art, this Niguel West Mid-Century Modern residence has been a 12 year labor of love of its interior designer owner and family. Not only is the home awe-inspiring, the lot, with over 1/4 acre affords privacy and the possibility to expand or add a pool. Passionately redesigned with utmost care to maintain its simplistic organic post and beam design whilst incorporating textures and materials that are neutral yet bold, no expense has been spared. Vaulted ceiling with clerestory windows feels like the sky is in your living room. Walls of black framed glass, hand laid chevron pattern hardwood floors, stone countertops, striking fireplace, custom cabinetry, built-in features and central heat and air conditioning. There are 3 bedrooms plus a study that doubles as a 4th room for guests, two exquisite bathrooms and inside laundry. The living space is all set on one level above the garage and storage area and opens directly to the immense wrap around yard. The 2 car garage is a multipurpose room with cabinetry, workbench and TV area with additional storage under the front porch. Well located at the corner of a small peaceful cul-de-sac with a long geometric driveway and private front yard with full bocce ball court adjacent to a conversation area. The backyard consists of 4 areas for entertaining including a sun deck, fire ring, garden table area and a covered outdoor living area with television. Additionally, there are access gates at the left side yard. Fully paid 31 panel 8.99 kW solar system installed in 2019 and car charging outlet. Originally built in 1965, designed by acclaimed Orange County architect George A Bissell, Jr., the home is set in a natural coastal enclave that originally consisted of only 80 MCM homes. It has the essence of a bygone era and feels like you have stepped out of OC. Just over 1 mile to the beach, with coastal breezes and on quiet evenings, the sound of the waves echo against the natural coastal hills that line the neighborhood. There is easy access to the beach bath where you can walk or ride your bike along the Monarch Beach Golf Course under Coast Highway directly to the sand at Salt Creek Beach. This is a place to relax and enjoy life and the natural gifts of coastal living with no association and ultra low property tax rate.
