A TRUE ONE-OF-A-KIND COASTAL ESTATE IN SOUTH SAN CLEMENTE — NOW OFFERED AT $5,250,000, A SIGNIFICANT $1,000,000 PRICE REDUCTION. Set on over 1.8 acres with sweeping ocean views, exceptional privacy, rare road frontage, and abundant parking, this extraordinary nine-level cedar-and-glass residence offers approximately 6,952 sq. ft., 7 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, and a truly unique architectural experience. The property is currently being painted with a fresh white exterior and light gray trim, creating a brighter, more modern coastal look. Painting is expected to be completed within the next few weeks. Designed by award-winning architect John McInnes and previously featured in Orange County Homes & Gardens, the home showcases dramatic indoor-outdoor living with soaring ceilings, walls of glass, expansive living areas, skylights, and multiple balconies capturing natural light, ocean breezes, and panoramic coastal vistas. Created for entertaining and everyday living, the home features a chef’s kitchen, generous gathering areas, wet bar, private elevator, and dramatic indoor spa. The primary suite is a secluded retreat near a peaceful stream and waterfall feature, with a spa-inspired bath including a large jetted soaking tub and dual-head shower. One of the estate’s most remarkable spaces is the private ocean-view observatory with wet bar, perfect for sunset cocktails, stargazing, entertaining, or enjoying the coastline and surf. Additional highlights include dual-pane windows, 31 leased solar panels, four 220-volt outlets, fire-retardant composite roofing, mature landscaping, and two separate APN parcels — 060-210-026 and 060-210-031 — offering privacy, flexibility, and future potential. No HOA. The versatile layout provides multiple private living spaces with income potential, ideal for multigenerational living, guests, creative workspaces, or rental opportunities. Located approximately a 10-minute walk from Riviera Beach and world-class surf, this estate offers extraordinary scale, land, privacy, ocean views, frontage, parking, flexibility, and one of the most compelling price-per-square-foot opportunities west of Interstate 5. With rare acreage, incredible views, a major price reduction, and the exterior transformation underway, this may be one of the best opportunities in San Clemente for a buyer seeking space, privacy, architecture, and long-term upside.
