Property Description

Prominently positioned in guard-gated Monarch Bay, this single-level coastal residence captures striking ocean, whitewater, sand, Headlands, and Ritz-Carlton views from its main living space. Nearly completely redesigned within the last five years, the home spans approximately 3,500 square feet and blends clean architectural lines with a warm, soft-contemporary aesthetic designed for elevated yet comfortable living. A beautiful entry atrium leads into an open great room filled with natural light and thoughtfully connected to the outdoors at multiple points. Smooth-coat walls, clean detailing, and carefully selected materials reinforce the home’s refined, contemporary feel throughout. The kitchen is outfitted with Miele appliances and integrates seamlessly with the living and dining areas, making it equally well suited for everyday living and larger-scale entertaining. The true centerpiece of the home is the dramatic living room, featuring soaring 12-foot ceilings, expansive Fleetwood windows and doors, oversized sliders oriented to the ocean views, an 8-foot glass fireplace, and a built-in wet bar. The open layout was intentionally designed to maximize light, flow, and indoor-outdoor living through versatile, interconnected spaces. The property has been thoughtfully upgraded with integrated wiring for cameras and speakers throughout, supporting modern living without compromising the home’s clean aesthetic. Outdoors, newly completed pool, spa, hardscape, softscape, water features, and a putting green create a private, resort-style setting. New roof installed in 2025. A beautifully landscaped entry courtyard, mature olive tree, and curated outdoor lighting further elevate the arrival experience. Monarch Bay residents enjoy exclusive access to the Monarch Bay Private Beach Club, operated by the Waldorf Astoria Monarch Beach, offering beach chair service, dining, bar, and events, along with newly added tennis, pickleball, and playground amenities. With a prime location among five-star resorts, year-round golf, and world-class beaches, exceptional coastal views from its primary living space, and refined single-level design, this is premier Monarch Bay living within one of Southern California’s most sought-after guard-gated communities, and only one hour from both Los Angeles and San Diego.
