Hidden away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this extensively rebuilt single-level home is exceptional. Featuring panoramic views of rolling hillsides, Saddleback mountain in the distance, a crisp ocean horizon, Dana Headlands, vibrant year-round sunsets, & Catalina island, all from nearly every major room. Taken down to the studs & reinvented, the home delivers major outdoor space on an oversized lot teamed with all-new (never lived in) coastal-modern finishes.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
