The opportunity to own a home within Capistrano Beach’s highly sought-after guard-gated Beach Road enclave is exceptionally rare. Purchasing a vacant homesite within the community is virtually unheard of, making this a once-in-a-lifetime chance to create the home of your dreams right on the sand. The lot is one of Beach Road’s finest, measuring approximately 5,227 square feet and 153' deep, extending across the beach to the median high-tide line. Views are phenomenal, encompassing breaking waves, stunning sunsets, twinkling coastline lights and the Pacific Ocean as far as the eye can see. Plans for a luxurious two-story custom home are included and showcase a five-bedroom, five-bath design of nearly 4,088 square feet. High-end appointments are led by fold-away glass doors to upper and lower view decks, a great room with walk-in wet bar, an island kitchen with coffee bar and butler’s pantry, a rooftop view deck, and a primary suite with linear fireplace, a retreat, pivoting entry door, and a walk-in closet with built-in dressers. An office or fifth bedroom is located on the first level, and a two-car garage features built-in storage. Life at Beach Road is simpler, as if from a bygone era. Residents celebrate the Fourth of July together and enjoy the beach with their dogs, which are allowed on the private sands of the community. A protected bike path leads to Dana Point Harbor, the San Clemente Coastal Trail is a favorite for exploration, and rounds of golf await at Shorecliffs Golf Club. Residents are also close to award-winning schools, scenic parks, five-star resorts, and countless shops and restaurants.
