This is a rare opportunity to own a bluff front home in San Clemente’s fabulous Riviera District. This well-preserved 1961 Mid-Century Modern home offers sublime ocean, whitewater, beach, Seal Rock, and Catalina Island views that are among the finest in southern Orange County. Additionally, this is a unique opportunity as this location within Riviera offers a wide range of development opportunities. The list of benefits that accompany ownership of this home is extensive, from a large corner lot spanning about 13,200 square feet and a sunny backyard patio with unobstructed ocean views, to a bright open-flow floorplan of approximately 2,100 square feet. A circular driveway and a large, private entrance courtyard make it easy to entertain both large and small groups of friends. A tropical garden enriches the courtyard, and period-perfect breezeblock epitomizes the home’s MCM roots. 1960's cachet continues throughout the interior, where metal screens, original hardwood flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows and beamed ceilings are proudly displayed. Framing phenomenal ocean views, the great room features a classic fireplace, a built-in China cabinet adorns the dining room, and the white-on-white kitchen boasts an island, a Thermador double oven, and a breakfast nook with custom stained-glass window. Three bedrooms and two baths include a primary suite with mirrored wardrobe doors, the interior laundry room features a sink, and extensive closet storage is available throughout the home, complete with lighting and built-ins. Baths reveal original soft-pink or blue sinks and tubs, and the two-car garage exhibits original Mid-Century Modern doors. The Riviera District is the crown jewel of Southwest San Clemente and offers great beach access, surf, and access to the San Clemente Beach Trail. San Clemente’s pier is a short distance up the shore, and schools, restaurants, parks and golf courses are close by.
