About This Home
As of July 2025In the heart of Dana Point’s Lantern Streets, this 3 bedroom single-level shines as one of the brightest lanterns in town. Walkable to just about anything Dana Point, this charmer is close to the beach, close to the Harbor, and close to all Del Prado and the reimagined downtown have to offer. Rare in the Beach Cities is the property’s RV access and yard space: room for your Airstream or your Boston Whaler, or all manner of adventure toys. The charm of this home, inside and out, is undeniable. It’s been artfully updated while maintaining the nostalgic beach vibe of classic Dana Point.
The front yard has been carefully planted with curated local plants, including orange, lemon, fig, and cumquat trees, a kitchen herb garden and special palms and blooming protea. In the back there is an easy-care butterfly / hummingbird garden. In a third location, there’s a private succulent walkway.
Come see it for yourself. You’ll fall in love.
