Life at the top is always better, and it reaches new heights of luxury and privacy at this near-new home high above San Juan Capistrano in the intimate gated enclave of Ocean Hills. Located at the end of a cul-de-sac with scenic open space as its neighbor, the rare single-level residence proudly displays an oversized homesite of over 8000 square feet. Enjoy manicured landscaping, custom hardscaping, a covered lanai with fireplace, and a large swimming pool with spa. Stone patios encourage poolside dining and entertaining both during the day and by starlight. Equally grand proportions await indoors, where three ensuite bedrooms and three- and one-half baths join an open office or future fourth bedroom. Two guest bedrooms are set near the front of the home for appreciated privacy, while the primary suite offers pool views, an ample walk-in closet, soaking tub, oversized shower and a sit-down vanity flanked by two sinks. Main living areas comprise a borderless great room and dining room with bi-fold glass doors to the backyard and lanai. An enormous island makes casual serving to living and dining room guests exceptionally easy during parties, and the kitchen further impresses with extra-high white Shaker cabinetry, a pantry, quartz countertops with full backsplash, and top-of-the-line stainless steel Dacor appliances including a multi-burner range and a large built-in refrigerator. High ceilings lend an airy ambiance throughout the home, which is beautifully appointed with wide-plank French oak flooring, designer crystal lighting fixtures, LED lighting throughout and clerestory windows. The community’s Club Pacifica features a lap pool, spa and community gathering space and workout center. Ocean Hills is only a couple of miles from the beach and Dana Point Harbor, and the shops and restaurants of Lantern Village make a day of shopping or a night on the town easy to enjoy. Top schools, ocean breezes, and a setting that is convenient to Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach and San Clemente are enjoyed at the limited-edition community.
