About 1880 N El Camino Real # 17
Set directly on the sand within San Clemente’s private Capistrano Shores enclave, this Cape Cod style oceanfront residence pairs timeless coastal architecture with a polished, quietly luxurious beachfront experience. Uninterrupted whitewater views stretch from the Dana Point Headlands to the San Clemente Pier, creating a cinematic backdrop for daily living, gathering, and retreat. Built in 2013, the two story shingle clad home welcomes with a gated entry and private side courtyard with a fire pit and covered seating area, while a Dutch door opens to a richly layered main level where coffered ceilings, dark wood floors, custom built ins, and expansive glass frame the Pacific with intention. The great room is anchored by a fireplace and opens through a slide away glass wall to the oceanfront patio, extending the living space toward the sand. The kitchen balances classic craftsmanship with elevated function, featuring white Shaker cabinetry with illuminated glass uppers, soapstone countertops, a generous island, farmhouse sink, dining area, built in refrigerator, wine cooler, beverage fridge, ice machine, pocket door cabinet, and a professional style six burner range with griddle and pot filler. Four bedrooms and four and a half baths include a main level bedroom and an upstairs primary suite oriented to the ocean with sweeping beach views, a sitting area, walk in closet, and private bath. Spanning approximately 2,654 square feet, the home also offers a generous loft, laundry chute, outdoor shower and separate outdoor water closet for convenient beachside living, and a rare attached one car garage for the enclave. Moments from the San Clemente Pier and downtown dining, this beachfront home brings refined design, immediate sand access, and the ease of Southern California coastal living into one beautifully composed offering.
