Unparalleled Craftsmanship meets Refined Single Level resort style living at the Hilltop Villa. Live in serenity just minutes from St. Margaret’s, downtown fine dining, Dana Point harbor, or a quick trip via John Wayne Airport. Set on 2.6 acres, this view estate consists of 5 ensuite bedrooms and 7 bathrooms designed for seamless indoor outdoor living and entertaining. A mix of serenity and amazement stirs as you are greeted by possibly the most cohesive landscaping on this exclusive private street, with neither a pebble nor boulder out of place and the olive trees perfectly coiffed. Myriad hosting areas range from intimate portico seating to large gathering plazas and banquet areas, with picturesque orchard and mountain views shifting colors throughout the day. When the weather is right and the big hand strikes 12, Mission Bells can be heard tolling from your massive organic garden which some have suggested could also be host site for an ADU or Pool. Fresh picked fruits and vegetables can be rinsed and prepared at either your indoor or outdoor kitchen. The one with the 12' ceiling and view windows is complete with a 48" Thermador Pro Grand 6 burner gas range with double oven and griddle, 6' Sub Zero freezer/refrigerator, dual dishwashers, dual sinks, 11' Prep Island, and a lovely elevated fireplace to warm up while looking out the French doors. The outdoor kitchen spans flagstone and pavers from an arced concrete counter to imported Italian Pizza Oven from Florence custom installed with stone chimney, to stainless steel BBQ and sink, before coming to the large stone fireplace to cap evenings. Primary Suite has East and South mountain views, French Doors that spill out to portico, with fireplace to spark a vibe. Dual Primary Bathrooms each with walk in closet, water closet, shower, plus a soaking tub with picture window in Hers. Second, Third, and Fourth bedrooms also enjoy walk in closets and private full bathrooms, while generous sized Laundry and Offices round out the residential north wing. Living and Dining rooms each have fireplaces and connectivity to the outdoors. Guest Casita and steam room accessed via Breezeway en route to 4 car garage with epoxy floors. Pavers in motor court and hedged driveway soften the texture as you drive out to the real world from your private sanctuary.
