About this property
A rare private estate in the heart of San Juan Capistrano, this beautifully updated Cape Cod-inspired residence pairs exceptional privacy and scale with the warmth and character of a home designed to be lived in and enjoyed. Set on nearly eight-tenths of an acre among mature trees and established grounds, the main residence offers five bedrooms and five baths, complemented by a separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest house ideal for extended family, guests, an office, or flexible living. Extensively remodeled by the current owner, a designer, the home is highly turnkey while preserving the architectural detail and personality that make it distinctive. Inside, the home is equally suited to everyday living and entertaining. Newly remodeled interiors include a stunning kitchen featuring stone countertops, custom cabinetry, an ILVE range, and beautiful built-ins throughout. Generous living spaces open naturally outdoors, where a covered rear deck overlooks the classic oval saltwater pool and private grounds. A central courtyard, mature gardens, brick pathways, gravel trails, and a former mini-horse stable & chicken coop create a relaxed estate feel with multiple places to gather, dine, unwind, or simply enjoy the setting. Filtered light moves through the home and grounds throughout the day, creating picturesque moments from morning through evening. A horse trail runs alongside the property, providing direct access to San Juan Capistrano’s interconnected 40+ mile trail network. The lifestyle is one of privacy without isolation. Mornings can begin with a walk or ride from the property, afternoons around the pool, and evenings entertaining under the covered deck or heading just minutes into downtown San Juan Capistrano for dinner. The Los Rios Historic District and River Street Marketplace are close at hand, while Dana Point Harbor, the beaches, and resort lifestyle of Monarch Beach and Laguna Beach are all within easy reach. West of the 5 freeway, the home offers convenient coastal access without sacrificing space or privacy and it's also well positioned for highly regarded schools like St. Margaret’s, JSerra, Capistrano Valley Christian and Capistrano Unified. Los Angeles, San Diego, and five major airports are all within a little over an hour. This is the San Juan Capistrano lifestyle so many dream of: character, one-of-a-kind architecture, space, privacy, and a home that can feel serene one moment and become the life of the party the next.
