Crown jewel of Lantern Bay Estates, this French Château is the only home in the community spanning 2.5 lots, offering unmatched privacy and sweeping, unobstructed 180-degree views of Dana Point Harbor. Blending European-inspired elegance with coastal grandeur, this estate delivers a rare opportunity to experience coastal living on an extraordinary scale.
Beyond private gates, a courtyard entry opens to over 19,000 square feet of landscaped grounds featuring a pool, spa, sun-drenched lawn, and multiple spaces designed for both intimate gatherings and grand celebrations.
Inside the main residence of approximately 3,948 SF, soaring ceilings and a dramatic spiral staircase create a striking first impression. Freshly painted interiors, new flooring, and refined details unfold throughout. Culinary enthusiasts will delight in a chef’s kitchen with a generous island, Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry, and stunning new quartz countertops, seamlessly flowing into both formal and casual living areas, each warmed by fireplaces that invite connection and conversation.
Upstairs, a romantic primary suite offers a private wraparound balcony framing dazzling white-water vistas—an idyllic retreat for savoring sunsets over the glowing coastline. Each secondary bedroom is ensuite, providing comfort and privacy.
Further along, a detached pool house of approximately 893 SF enhances the living experience with a sunlit circular guest suite (fifth bedroom), welcoming living room with fireplace and wet bar, and a versatile exercise room. Additional highlights include a two-car garage with space for a golf cart.
Situated within a prestigious bluff-top, guard-gated community, this remarkable estate rests just moments from The Marina at Dana Point, Dana Point Harbor, dining, and boutique shopping.
