Live with the ocean at your feet in this classic beachfront cottage, nestled within the private, resident-owned enclave of Capistrano Shores—one of San Clemente’s most iconic coastal communities. With only 90 individually styled homes, this guard-gated neighborhood offers a rare blend of character, privacy, and uninterrupted sand access. Set directly on the water, the thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bath home spans approximately 1,344 square feet and captures the essence of everyday ease at the edge of the Pacific. Vaulted ceilings, a breezy open floorplan, and sliding glass doors frame panoramic views of crashing waves and wide-open sky, blurring the line between indoors and out. A vine-covered arbor leads to a Dutch door entry, revealing a sunlit interior filled with timeless charm—from the inviting white brick fireplace and open living area to the white-on-white kitchen with solid-surface countertops, ample cabinetry, and an island made for morning coffee, casual meals, and conversation that lingers. The primary suite offers a quiet retreat with mirrored wardrobes, dual vanities, a soaking tub, and separate shower, while two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, a home office, or creative space. Every inch of the home is thoughtfully composed to elevate daily living, with recent upgrades including a newer roof (2023), freshly painted exterior, and a reinforced rock wall supported by rebar and concrete for long-term stability. Outdoors, the experience unfolds across a spacious oceanfront deck with built-in fire pit, integrated seating, and a built-in BBQ connected to a direct gas line—no tanks required. Solid, well-constructed steps lead down to the sand, offering a private connection to the shoreline. A beach shower, now thoughtfully relocated to the front of the home for convenience, complements the practical touches found throughout, including timer-controlled irrigation for the front landscaping and a laundry room with generous storage. Whether you’re hosting sunset dinners, spending long afternoons in the sun, or enjoying the quiet rhythm of an early morning tide, this home is designed to move with the pace of the sea. Moments from the Outlets at San Clemente, local parks, scenic coastal trails, and I-5 access, it offers not only a rare setting—but a front-row seat to a life fully inhabited.
