Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the guard-gated beachfront community of The Strands at Headlands, this newly completed coastal residence is a striking fusion of modern elegance and laid-back luxury. Perched above the Pacific, with stunning views stretching from the crashing white waters to Catalina Island and the untouched beauty of the Dana Point Headlands, this home redefines what it means to live by the sea. Thoughtfully designed across two spacious levels, this five-bedroom, six-bathroom masterpiece offers generous proportions, effortless flow, and a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Step inside and be welcomed by an open-concept main living area, where oversized pocket doors disappear into the walls, framing the panoramic ocean backdrop like a work of art. Whether it’s an alfresco evening by the infinity-edge pool, a twilight dip in the spa, or stories around the firepit as the sun sets over the horizon, this home delivers a front-row seat to the very best of coastal living. A private elevator connects each level with ease, leading you upstairs to the expansive primary suite—a tranquil retreat complete with its own fireplace, an oversized spa-style bathroom with a steam shower, a walk-in wardrobe, and a private ocean-facing deck for morning coffee or evening stargazing. The main kitchen is a culinary showpiece, equipped for both everyday living and elegant entertaining, while a separate dirty kitchen ensures everything stays perfectly behind the scenes. A casual breakfast nook overlooks the ocean and headlands, while multiple indoor fireplaces add warmth and atmosphere throughout. Designed with versatility in mind, the home also features a cozy bonus room—a perfect spot to relax with a favorite film or book beside its own fireplace. A three-car garage offers ample storage, while the location—nestled within the private Strands community—balances exclusivity with convenient access to the best of Dana Point. From beach side strolls to the charm of the harbor and nearby amenities, everything you need is within easy reach. With its unbeatable views, thoughtful layout, and flawless design, this home is a rare offering for those who value both style and serenity by the sea.
