About This Home

As of January 2025

Completely remodeled as a second home for the owner, this stunning first-floor beach condo (no stairs) is the perfect place to live or vacation year-round! The open floor plan includes two spacious bedrooms, a large living room with a cozy fireplace, and a formal dining area. The kitchen and bathrooms have been fully updated with quartz countertops, and there’s a private laundry room with full-size hookups. Take a scenic walking trail to the Pacific Ocean, the renowned Ritz Carlton, and the St. Regis Resort, all less than a mile away! The resort-style amenities include a sparkling pool, three spas (one with an ocean view), and a clubhouse, all within the 24-hour guard-gated Ritz Pointe community adjacent to the St. Regis Resort & Spa. You’re also just a bike ride away from Dana Point Harbor’s dining, shopping, and more. Plus, this is one of the few properties in Monarch Hills that comes with a single-car garage. This home is truly move-in ready!
