About This Home
Welcome to your dream home in San Clemente, perfectly perched above a peaceful canyon with stunning ocean views from nearly every room. This single-story 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence sits on an oversized lot just 1.1 miles from the beach and pier, and less than half that to downtown’s charming shops and restaurants.
Step inside to an open, sun-filled floor plan featuring vaulted beam ceilings, a chef’s kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a gas range—all oriented toward an ocean-facing entertainer’s patio.
The flexible layout offers:
2 spacious bedrooms plus a large bonus room with fireplace and ocean views—ideal for a third bedroom, office, or media room.
No interior stairs and abundant natural light throughout.
Sweeping views of Catalina Island, San Clemente Island, and Dana Point Harbor. Upgraded electrical panel, newer wiring, and parking for 4+ vehicles, with space for a golf cart or small boat. Drought-tolerant landscaping with lighting, water features, and a timed sprinkler system.
Two outdoor storage sheds for added convenience.
Please Note:
During recent flooring updates, cracks were discovered in the slab due to soil settlement. As a result, the home is being offered at a discounted price, giving buyers the opportunity to complete the repairs and add personal touches to make this beach-town retreat their own.
Enjoy breathtaking sunsets, ocean breezes, and city lights—plus easy access to I-5, PCH, and the train station. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a view property in one of Southern California’s most desirable coastal towns.
