From the magnificent Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island to city lights, sunsets, and Dana Point's monolithic Headlands, unobstructed 180o panoramic views enrich almost every room of this stunning custom estate in San Clemente. Boasting one of the best homesites in Marblehead's exclusive, guard-gated enclave of The Summit at Highland Lights, the remodeled residence redefines luxury living in approximately 4,200 square feet. A coved double height ceiling makes an outstanding first impression in the grand entry, living & dining area, which opens to ocean views and hosts a sweeping semi-circular staircase, dry bar, reclaimed Chicago brick, interior French doors leading to casual living spaces, and custom leaded-glass entry doors. Ocean views continue to impress in the family room, where built-in cabinetry flanks an elegant fireplace. The adjacent kitchen will please even the most demanding chefs with soapstone countertops, white Shaker cabinetry w/ glass uppers, a farmhouse sink, large island, and an ocean-view breakfast nook w/ bay window. Top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances from Viking, Sub-Zero and Thermador include a drawer microwave, built-in refrigerator and six-burner range, and a French door opens the kitchen to a secret side garden. An oversized laundry and mud room are featured, & an attached garage accommodates parking for three. Enjoy the comfort of 4-bedrooms including a main-level ensuite, 5-baths, an ocean-view office w/ extensive built-ins, and another first-floor office w/ Venetian plaster walls and skylights. Two staircases lead to the second floor, which overlooks the living area below and hosts two bedrooms w/a shared bath, a bonus room with coffered ceiling or optional 5th bedroom, and an opulent primary suite w/ sitting area, fireplace walk-in closet, deck access and a private ocean-view balcony. The bath shines with an elegant freestanding tub, separate shower & two vanities w/ waterfall-edge countertops. An artisan's eye for excellence in craftsmanship is evident through the inclusion of custom crown and base molding, wainscoting, judges paneling, bay windows, high-end tilework, top-tier finishes and fixtures, black raised-panel interior doors, & woodgrain porcelain tile & hardwood flooring throughout. Grounds extend nearly 14,265 square feet and reveal a long 13-car driveway, stone entry patio, manicured landscaping, and a backyard w/ loggia & pool-sized lawn. Top schools, beaches, shopping, dining & recreation are moments away.
