257 Avenida La Cuesta San Clemente CA 92672 | MLS #OC26181771
First time on the market in over 50 years for a reason, this home has been loved & enjoyed by its owners for decades. Well-positioned on an ocean-view terrace high on the hillside above Broadmoor, this beyond-desirable home is sure to intrigue those in pursuit of a single-level with major views. Offering several values: No HOA, ranch-style floor plan all on one level (4 beds & 2 baths) with an open atrium courtyard entry, ideally positioned on a quiet single-loaded side street lined with other significant custom estates, underground power (no power lines), newer presidential comp roof, rain gutters tied into upgraded site drainage/hardscaping, & Andersen windows/doors – this property really hits on several desirable value measures. Truly amazing views being higher on the hill of distant rolling hills, major sunsets, Saddleback mountain, ocean, Dana Headlands & harbor framed by a picture window in the dining room. A classic ranch style elevation with a large grassy yard, stone cladding, mature landscaping, & newer vinyl fencing with one side offering generous space & double vinyl doors for potential golf cart parking & convenient storage (large lockable storage shed included). The open air atrium patio offers access via multiple sliders to the family room, living room, & guest bedroom wing. The living & dining rooms feature picture windows & sliders showcasing the stunning views beyond, all warmed by a central fireplace. Recently updated, the kitchen offers crispy white shaker cabinetry, backsplash tile, stainless appliances, & quartz counter tops with peninsula bar seating all open to the family room. The main living spills out to both the rear lounging patio & atrium. A spacious primary suite offers major views, especially from bed when waking up toward the ocean horizon & Dana Point harbor. Three guest bedrooms at the end of the hallway share a full guest bathroom – all finished in LVP flooring throughout the entire interior. Occupying a large 8,190 SF lot, this property offers tremendous outdoor space with room for expansion, off-street parking, & a 2-car garage (laundry in garage). Central to all that Dana Point & San Clemente have to offer: new restaurants, great schools, trail systems, world-class surf, oceanfront beach trail / bike paths, shopping, the nearby Outlet mall, SC Pier, amazing beach access along the whole stretch of coast, & the forthcoming DP Harbor remodel currently underway. Truly an opportunity to be someone’s next forever home.
