About this home

Perched in the exclusive enclave of Corona Highlands, 420 De Sola Terrace is a redefined oceanview estate with elevated finishes and sophistication throughout. Originally reimagined by renowned architect Chris Light, this four-bedroom, four-bathroom home (including a dedicated office and two elegant powder rooms) spans approximately 3,500 square feet on an expansive 7,250-square-foot lot. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly through sun adorned living spaces and a family-style dining area framed by sweeping ocean vistas. A chef’s kitchen with stone countertops and a double Viking range connects effortlessly to these spaces, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The serene main-level primary suite offers breathtaking views, a ceiling-mounted drop-down TV, remote-controlled drapery, and a spa-inspired bath with custom tilework and luxurious finishes. Also on this level is a refined office, designed to meet the demands of top-tier executives. A true entertainer’s haven, the new lower-level retreat is appointed with a second kitchen featuring travertine countertops, designer curated lighting, custom cabinetry, beverage fridges, an ice machine, a two-keg tap system, and a custom theatre/game room. This level also features a stylish powder room with custom cabinetry, a concealed-entry laundry room, and an impressive walk-in wine cellar. Two additional bedrooms—one with direct access to the lush poolside retreat—share a Jack-and-Jill bath, offering privacy and comfort for guests. Resort-style amenities include a saltwater pool with all-new systems, a swim-up bar, built-in BBQs, and mature landscaping curated for privacy. The home is fully equipped with smart home technology, including Savant AV automation, a new surround sound system. Enjoy panoramic ocean views and nightly sunsets from nearly every room—or from one of several outdoor spaces: a wraparound deck with firepit off the main living area, a rooftop stargazing terrace with fireplace, or the private balcony off the primary suite. Residents of Corona Highlands enjoy exclusive access to the coveted Shore Cliffs beach and are just a short stroll from the heart of Corona del Mar Village—home to world-class dining, boutique shopping. Minutes from Big Corona, Little Corona, and the beaches that define the CdM lifestyle, this prime location also offers effortless access to Fashion Island, Pelican Hill Resort, and John Wayne Airport—placing the best of coastal Orange County at your doorstep.
