About this home

Every now and then, a residence comes along that truly delivers on the promise of having it all. Welcome to this San Clemente estate, poised behind the prestigious gates of Talega’s exclusive Careyes enclave, where panoramic golf course views, privacy, refined enhancements, and an expanded floorplan set the stage for an extraordinary lifestyle. The grounds recall a private resort, with graceful palms rising over a backyard centered on a lagoon-inspired saltwater pool with water slide, Baja entry, sculptural rockscapes, and spa. Ocean breezes accompany al fresco dining within a custom pavilion featuring a dramatic fire and water element, seamlessly integrated with a built-in BBQ and beverage refrigerator. Nearly 10,237 square feet, the homesite extends indoor-outdoor living with an elevated front patio and, beyond a privacy door, a generous lawn and fireplace lounge for evenings under the stars. Inside, luxury continues across approximately 4,689 square feet, offering five ensuite bedrooms and five-and-one-half baths, complemented by a detached casita off the entry courtyard—ideal for an office, gym, or retreat. A second-floor bonus room expands possibilities, easily adaptable to an additional bedroom if desired. The foyer, opening through French doors to the courtyard, flows into a formal dining room crowned by a barrel ceiling and a great room anchored by a sandstone fireplace with views to both courtyard and backyard. A breakfast room connects to the outdoors and to a chef’s kitchen designed with beauty and function, featuring granite countertops, stained-wood cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, walk-in storage, and a built-in refrigerator alongside a professional Thermador range with six burners, two ovens, and griddle. For added convenience, the downstairs suite includes a custom bath with direct pool access. Secondary bedrooms are generous—one distinguished by twin Juliet balconies and a versatile study niche. The primary suite, oriented to golf course and hillside views, is a sanctuary with cast sandstone fireplace, custom walk-in closet, dual vanities, and jetted chromotherapy tub. Upgrades include solar power, wood and travertine flooring, Walker Zanger limestone in baths, whole-house audio, and recirculating hot water. Even the three-car garage is finished with epoxy flooring and built-in storage. This is a home that pairs the intimacy of coastal living with the sophistication of architectural design—an address where every detail has been considered.
