About this home

For the First Time Ever on the Market – A Rare Ocean-Front Opportunity. Perched atop a prime oceanfront bluff, this exceptional property offers breathtaking 180-degree panoramic coastal white water ocean views and Dana Point Harbor. Situated on a rare, sprawling 13,000 sq. ft. lot, this home is all about location, views, and limitless possibilities. It’s very hard to find a lot this size in this location. While the current home has 2-bedroom (+ option for a 3rd), 2.5-bathroom residence offers a great layout, it is the land, setting, and stunning views that make this property a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Featuring an expansive roundabout driveway with a detached 3-car garage, the home is well-positioned for either an inspired renovation or a complete transformation into the dream estate it is meant to be. The larger master suite enjoys ocean views, an en-suite bath, and a tranquil retreat-like atmosphere. A generously sized secondary bedroom includes an attached Jack-and-Jill bathroom, ensuring comfort and privacy. The heart of the home including the kitchen, dining, den, and living areas are all perfectly positioned to enjoy the expansive 180 degree ocean views. Whether enhancing the existing home or designing a brand-new luxury residence, the potential for a world-class coastal retreat is undeniable. This is more than a home—it’s an investment in one of the most coveted oceanfront locations available on the bluff. Enjoy watching the surf lineup at Doheny Beach or the sailboats going in and out of the Harbor. This property currently has approved plans with the city of Dana Point and California Coastal Commission for a full remodel which includes a new detached 4 car garage with ADU on top + lap pool addition. Opportunities like this don’t come often, schedule your tour today.

Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1975, is significantly dated, particularly the kitchen with its older dark wood cabinets, speckled granite countertops, and dated appliances. While the home appears well-maintained and livable, the overall style and features are outdated, and the listing itself suggests the property is ideal for a 'full remodel' or 'complete transformation.' This indicates that major updates are required to bring it to modern standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Unparalleled Oceanfront Location & Views: Perched atop a prime oceanfront bluff, the property offers breathtaking 180-degree panoramic coastal white water ocean views and Dana Point Harbor, a highly coveted and rare attribute.
Exceptional Lot Size & Rarity: A sprawling 13,000 sq. ft. lot is exceptionally rare for this oceanfront location, providing significant space for expansion and development opportunities.
Pre-Approved Development Plans: The property comes with approved plans from the City of Dana Point and California Coastal Commission for a full remodel, including a new detached 4-car garage with ADU and a lap pool, significantly de-risking future development.
Exclusive Market Opportunity: This is the first time the property has been on the market, presenting a unique and rare opportunity to acquire a trophy oceanfront asset.
Strong Foundation for Renovation: The existing 1975 residence offers a great layout with ocean-view living areas and a master suite, providing a functional base for an inspired renovation or complete transformation.

Cons

Significant Renovation Required: The 1975-built home is positioned for 'inspired renovation or a complete transformation,' indicating that substantial immediate investment will be required beyond the purchase price to modernize or rebuild.
Limited Current Bedroom Count: With only 2 bedrooms (plus an option for a 3rd), the existing home's capacity may be considered modest for a luxury estate of this scale and potential, necessitating expansion for larger families or entertaining.
High All-In Investment: While offering immense potential, the property demands a considerable financial commitment for both acquisition and the extensive renovation/redevelopment implied by the approved plans.
