35121 Beach Road, Dana Point, CA 92624

One of the largest homesites on Beach Road sits directly on the sand, behind a guard-gated entrance, with no road or boardwalk between the house and the water. Walls of glass and soaring ceilings frame a continuous 180-degree sweep of coastline, from the Dana Point headland past Catalina Island to the San Clemente Pier. The entry opens beneath a floating staircase, setting the scale for the nearly 5,300 square feet that follow: five bedrooms, five full and two half bathrooms, open-plan living rooms, en-suite baths throughout, and oversized walk-in closets. The kitchen is built for real use, with a true commercial range, griddle and grill, two dishwashers, complete with ocean views. The primary suite pairs a sauna with a large jacuzzi tub. A second full laundry room runs two sets of washers and dryers. Outside, the beachfront spa and wide private patio sit right at the sand, with lawn and mature palms buffering the deck from the beach itself. The 7,560 square foot lot, one of the largest on the street, gives this house room that most beachfront properties simply don't have. Direct sand frontage on a lot this size, behind private gates, does not come up often. This is a rare shot at owning it.
