Standing directly on the sand along Capistrano Beach's exclusive guard-gated Beach Road community in Dana Point, this extraordinary custom home pairs stunning modern architecture with panoramic ocean, beach, Catalina Island, sunset, whitewater and coastline views. Natural wood, patinated copper, glass, metal and concrete combine to distinguish exterior architecture that is destined to stand the test of time. Designed by Mark Singer and built by Crawford Custom Homes with an interior by Terry Hunziker, the spacious, open and light two-story residence is truly a seaside oasis that showcases a soaring double-height entry, open- concept living spaces, and a bespoke selection of top-tier finishes and fixtures throughout approximately 3,503 square feet. Five bedrooms and five baths include four luxurious ensuites and a main-level bedroom that is perfect for guests. Opening via a wall of Arcadia glass doors to a covered beachfront patio with spa and built-in BBQ, the living room, dining room and kitchen form one seamless space that generously accommodates impressive entertaining and easy daily living. A custom entertainment wall with linear fireplace and surround sound anchors the living room, and the kitchen displays a large island with seating, sleek European-style frameless cabinetry, open shelving, leathered quartzite countertops, and a custom backsplash with built-in storage and a unique in-wall spice organizer. Chefs of every skill level will benefit from top-of-the-line appliances that include a built-in cabinet-matched Miele refrigerator, built-in ice-maker, and a drawer microwave and versatile multi-burner cooktop from Gaggenau. Ascend a dramatic floating staircase to the second level of this peerless beachfront home, where floor-to-ceiling windows welcome natural light, and a lavish primary suite overlooks the sand, breaking waves and Pacific Ocean while revealing a deck, freestanding tub, separate shower, floating vanities, and a walk-in closet with custom built- in cabinets. Concrete walls, wood-plank ceilings, chic lighting and custom built-ins are featured in select areas, and radiant-heat flooring, Crestron home automation, a two-car garage, three parking spaces and storage across the street, and a built-in back-up generator elevate preferred living. Residents of Beach Road enjoy a private beach extending nearly 1.5 miles that is close to Dana Point’s harbor and Lantern District, and biking, hiking and walking trails.
