About This Home

Welcome to La Serena, a beautifully remodeled 4-bedroom beach home nestled in the heart of Dana Point's highly sought-after Lantern District. Designed with a relaxed coastal feel, this inviting residence features soaring vaulted ceilings, an open-concept floor plan, and seamless indoor-outdoor living that's perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying the Southern California lifestyle.
The private backyard is a peaceful retreat with mature fruit trees, multiple gathering spaces, and cozy fire pits for year-round enjoyment. Inside, the thoughtfully updated kitchen opens to the main living areas, while wood-engineered flooring and energy-efficient mini-split HVAC systems provide both style and comfort throughout the home.
A rare bonus is the generous off-street parking, including a gated area ideal for a boat, golf cart, or extra vehicles. Just one block from Dana Point's charming shops, restaurants, and cafés, and only minutes from the harbor and beaches, La Serena offers the perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and coastal living.
