1880 n el camino real

Unobstructed on-the-beach views extending from San Clemente’s famous pier to the towering Dana Point Headlands set the scene for outstanding oceanfront living at this classic home in the private community of Capistrano Shores. A sunny patio introduces the single-level residence, which welcomes abundant natural light and breathtaking whitewater, Catalina Island and sunset views through massive floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. Approximately 1,000 square feet, the open-concept design makes it easy to entertain by erasing boundaries between the kitchen, living and dining rooms. A peninsula bar for serving up appetizers and enjoying morning coffee opens to the living room from the kitchen, where white Shaker cabinetry, low-maintenance contemporary countertops, a Bosch dishwasher, and a range with smooth cooktop are on display. Two bedrooms and two baths lend versatility to the home, which is also appointed with high ceilings and woodgrain laminate flooring. Nearly 2,265 square feet, the homesite reveals a beach-front patio with retractable awning and a coveted location within Capistrano Shores. One of San Clemente’s most sought-after addresses, the seaside enclave is moments from miles of beach trails, shops and restaurants along Avenida del Mar, Dana Point’s beautifully revitalized harbor, famous surf spots, scenic neighborhood parks and the Ole Hanson Swim Club.
