35301 Beach Rd, Dana Point, CA 92624

Distinguished from its neighbors by modern contemporary architecture, this extensively upgraded and recently refreshed custom residence is in a league of its own along the guard-gated Beach Road enclave in Capistrano Beach. A commanding street presence is refined by new landscaping, lighting and hardscaping that continues from the front to the back, where a spacious at-the-sand patio takes in panoramic ocean, whitewater, beach, Catalina Island and city-light views that reach the Dana Point Headlands and beyond the San Clemente Pier. Accessed on all levels by a private elevator, the open and inviting home embraces approximately 3,953 square feet and features three bedrooms, four-and-one-half baths, a game room with pub-style wet bar and loft above, and a rooftop patio with unparalleled views. The main level presents an outstanding setting for entertaining complete with stone flooring, a step-down living room with sleek fireplace, a wet bar with curvilinear ceiling accent and ample seating, and a dining room with side patio. The entire area flows directly to a newly enriched island kitchen with quartz countertops, custom tile backsplash, an extra-wide stainless-steel hood, Thermador range, full-size Sub-Zero wine refrigerator, a built-in refrigerator with cabinet-matched doors, and a Bosch dishwasher. Slide-away glass doors open to the oceanfront patio, and the residence now displays new interior and exterior paint, revarnished wood floors and paneling, all-new Restoration Hardware lighting, whole-house audio with new studio-quality speakers, custom window treatments, new bar appliances, and in bathrooms, new quartz countertops, flooring, vanities and surrounds. An attached two-car garage reveals new epoxy flooring and generous built-in storage; two new air-conditioning systems ensure year-round comfort; grounds span approximately 4,873 square feet; and two tankless water heaters, whole-house filtration and a new security system with cameras are featured. Properties along Beach Road extend across the beach to the median high-tide line, and residents enjoy a setting near trails, parks, resorts, top schools, San Clemente and Laguna Beach.
