Perched at the highest elevation in the prestigious, guard-gated enclave of Pelican Crest, this custom estate captures breathtaking, unobstructed views of Newport Harbor, Catalina Island, year-round sunsets, and the coastline stretching to Palos Verdes. Set behind private gates and a serene entry courtyard with fountains and water features, the residence showcases timeless architecture and meticulous craftsmanship.
A dramatic 34-foot foyer with a sweeping staircase introduces the home’s grandeur. Marble and walnut floors flow through elegant living spaces, including a formal dining room, butler’s kitchen, and a chef’s kitchen outfitted with Viking appliances, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and rich walnut cabinetry. A marble-topped bar and view-facing breakfast nook complete the culinary experience. The great room, boasting the estate’s most commanding views, opens to a covered loggia through disappearing glass doors offering a fireplace lounge and al fresco dining with panoramic vistas. Additional highlights include a wood-paneled library, Oval Office-style study, rear staircase, soaring ceiling heights, smart lighting, integrated audio, Venetian plaster walls, and detailed millwork throughout. The main level features a private guest suite, while the upper level offers two secondary suites and a luxurious primary suite with a sitting room, fireplace, covered balcony, dual spa-like bathrooms and dressing rooms, and a morning bar. The lower level is an entertainer’s haven with a 3,096-sq-ft garage, game room, gym with dry sauna, theater, wine cellar, billiards room, and a full bar. An open-air courtyard leads to a resort-style backyard with pool, spa, grotto, mosaic waterfall, BBQ bar, and numerous outdoor vignettes.
Ideally located moments from world-class shopping, dining, and entertainment at Fashion Island and South Coast Plaza, white sand beaches, Newport Harbor, the Performing Arts Center, John Wayne Airport, and premier golf and tennis clubs. This is a rare opportunity to own a legacy estate in one of Newport Coast’s most iconic locations.
