Description
Exquisitely rebuilt, turn-key single-story coastal home in the prestigious, 24-hour guard-gated oceanfront community of Niguel Shores. Completely remodeled and expanded from the studs up, this thoughtfully redesigned retreat blends luxury, privacy, and meticulous craftsmanship making it an exceptional residence in an ideal location.

A rare large driveway leads to a private, gated front yard featuring a custom stacked-stone firepit, a spa-like illuminated water fountain, and an attached modern two-car garage with glass panels, epoxy flooring and built-in cabinets.

Inside, natural light pours into the open living space with soaring 20-foot ceilings, where transitional elegance meets coastal charm flowing seamlessly from the kitchen to the living and dining rooms. The chef’s kitchen showcases custom white shaker cabinets, two spacious pantries, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, and premium Thor appliances—including a commercial-style gas range, refrigerator, dishwasher, built-in microwave, and beverage center. A quartz waterfall island with bar seating and storage, complemented by the built-in desk and entry table for cohesive design and functionality.

Seven new skylights brighten the home, while custom Garber fabric blinds provide shade and energy efficiency. Water-resistant engineered wood floors offer style and durability ideal for coastal living. All three bathrooms feature high-end MSI porcelain tile, beach pebble accents, Justice handcrafted ceramic lighting and LED-lit mirrors. The laundry room includes gas hookups, new cabinets, a clothes bar and porcelain flooring.

Modern tech includes pre-wired automation with Cat-6 Ethernet and wireless access points. The exterior has been re-done with smooth-coat stucco, a tiled roof, new fascia boards, updated hardscape, irrigation and drainage.

The maintenance-free backyard is beautifully landscaped with drought-tolerant potted plants on a drip system, polished stones, a tranquil fountain, and a large side yard for pets—perfect for California’s outdoor lifestyle.

Niguel Shores residents enjoy direct beach access, a private oceanfront bluff and park, a newly renovated clubhouse, Olympic-size pool, spa, and recreational amenities. Minutes from the Ritz-Carlton, Waldorf Astoria, and Dana Point Harbor. Live the coastal lifestyle year-round in one of the best locations in Southern California, in the heart of coastal South Orange County, and only an hour from both San Diego and Los Angeles.
