21 STRAND BEACH DRIVE, DANA POINT CA 92629

Settling for less isn’t an option at this absolutely stunning villa on the sand at The Strand at Headlands in Dana Point. Unobstructed front-row views span the azure Pacific Ocean, crashing waves, southern Orange County’s golden coastline, Catalina Island and the imposing headlands of historic Dana Point. Every level of the custom estate opens to the ocean, welcoming fresh sea breezes, natural light, and the hypnotic sounds of the surf into nearly every room. Extending approximately 10,576 square feet, the bespoke oceanfront mansion redefines elegance and sophistication with uncompromising craftsmanship and unyielding attention to detail. An appropriately grand entrance leads to a floating circular staircase that is crowned by a glass ceiling on the third level and provides a dramatic focal point on every floor. An elevator also serves each level of the home, which hosts five ensuite bedrooms and 7 full and 2 half baths. The formal foyer leads to a chic parlor, a formal dining room, and a massive great room with fireplace. Disappearing glass pocket doors open the great room to a large loggia that showcases a floating cantilevered spa with acrylic bottom that overlooks the beach. An island kitchen features a nook with built-in seating, and a separate catering kitchen and service bar. Take the stairs or elevator up to the top floor, where bedroom suites include a five-star owners retreat with sitting area, fireplace, ocean-view balcony, an oversized walk-in closet with island, and an exquisite bath. It’s all about fun and entertainment on the lowest floor, where a game room, billiards room, glass-enclosed wine cellar, service kitchen, fifth bedroom and a gym are located. This floor opens via a disappearing glass wall to a loggia with massive sunken wet bar. Beyond the bar awaits a resort pool and spa, a built-in island with grill, a seating area with open-air fireplace, extensive stone decking and direct beach access. Created by Homer Oatman of Oatman Architects, the estate was built by Mike Reeves of Corbin Reeves Construction and reveals exceptional interior design by Ohara Davies-Gaetano. Sequestered behind guarded gates, The Strand at Headlands is one of the most coveted oceanfront communities in California and offers more than one mile of coastline, 70 acres of parks, scenic trails, a beach club and easy access to resorts, shops, restaurants and outstanding schools.
