About this home

You've curated a life of exceptional quality; now, claim the property that meets your own demanding standards. The Only THING Missing From Your Collection: San Clemente's Pier Bowl Central Pinnacle Penthouse. This isn't merely "pier-view"—it is pier central. You'll look down from your expansive balcony onto an unobstructed, panoramic canvas stretching from South San Clemente, the views of California island, Catalina and Avalon islands, pass the San Clemente Pier and all the way North to the Dana Point Marina. The proximity is astonishing: you can literally see people's faces below. While others in this building purchased lower-floor units with obstructed views and the hassle of a total renovation (stuck in their original built condition), this home is ready for immediate enjoyment. Beyond the sophisticated finishes, your private spa sanctuary awaits, featuring a steam room, an oversize jacuzzi, and two separate showers. The ocean air is invited in by an accordion patio door that dissolves the barrier between the living space and the Pacific. Below you, a secluded pool and oceanic greenbelt offer quiet reprieve. The location grants you a swift, 90-second walk to the water, the beach boardwalk, and the Coastline Train station. Some things that are not available in other buildings near by, like an elevator and trash shutte make this even more special. Only 12 residences in upper floors and 5 beach bungalows downstairs. Heated floors in bathroom and bedroom, two heating sources, minisplit AC/heater, instant hot water dispencer, high efficiency water heater, whole-house water filtration system and many more features. A property of this caliber, in this precise location, will not wait. The opportunity to simply buy it and possess the quintessential San Clemente oceanfront lifestyle is here. What remains is the simple act of ownership.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Unrivaled Panoramic Ocean Views: Offers direct, unobstructed panoramic views of Catalina Island, San Clemente Pier, Dana Point Marina, and the coastline from an expansive balcony, providing a truly exceptional visual experience.
Exceptional Location & Walkability: Situated in a 'Pier Bowl Central' location, providing a swift 90-second walk to the beach, boardwalk, and Coastline Train station, emphasizing convenience and access to coastal amenities.
Luxurious & Fully Renovated Interior: The home is ready for immediate enjoyment with sophisticated finishes, a private spa sanctuary (steam room, oversized jacuzzi, dual showers), heated floors, and modern utilities including a mini-split AC/heater and whole-house water filtration.
Exclusive Building Features: Benefits from an elevator, trash chute, and a secluded pool/oceanic greenbelt, enhancing convenience and lifestyle for a limited number of residents (only 12 upper-floor units).
Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Living: Features an accordion patio door that fully opens, effectively dissolving the barrier between the living space and the Pacific, maximizing the oceanfront experience.

Cons

High Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $600 is substantial for a 729 sqft unit, potentially impacting the overall cost of ownership and buyer affordability.
Limited Square Footage: With 729 sqft, the unit offers relatively compact living space, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking larger luxury residences at this price point.
Building Age: Despite extensive interior renovations, the building's original construction year of 1964 could imply potential for older common area infrastructure or future building-wide maintenance concerns.
