Owner would consider shorter term lease at higher rate. Private and open, this chic Mid-Century Modern home is located just moments from the beach in Dana Point’s exclusive guard-gated Monarch Bay enclave. The spacious single-level residence presents six bedrooms and three baths in approximately 2,955 square feet. Nearly every room in the home opens to the outdoors, with sliding-glass doors, floor-to-ceiling and clerestory windows, and central atrium-style patio blurring the line between inside and out. A perfect welcome for guests, the entry patio offers ample room for socializing by an open-air fireplace and grilling up a great meal with friends. Indoors, defined living areas seamlessly flow from one to the other, with a fireplace-warmed living room joining a dining room, lounge area that’s ideal for movie night, and family room that opens to an upgraded kitchen with white cabinetry, stone countertops, island, and breakfast bar. Vinyl flooring is featured throughout the home, and sleek LED lighting fixtures and custom bath tile and fixtures are on display. The primary suite is exceptionally large, offering room for yoga, a studio or sitting area. Private grounds extend nearly 19,964 square feet and reveal multiple patios, a soothing spa, beautiful lawns, and ample guest parking. Located near Salt Creek Beach, the Ritz-Carlton, and prestigious golf courses, Monarch Bay is one of southern Orange County’s most sought-after addresses. Residents have easy access to the sand and membership in the newly remodeled Monarch Bay Beach Club, where attendants set up complementary towel, beach chair, and umbrella service on the sand. Homeowners enjoy tennis, basketball, a fenced dog run and scenic Neptune Park.
