Property Description

Set within one of San Clemente’s most desirable hillside enclaves, 1205 Via Catalina commands expansive, unobstructed views stretching from Catalina Island down the coastline toward San Diego. White water, layered sunsets, and twinkling city lights after dark — the views are both dramatic and rare. Completely reimagined in 2024 and reconstructed with full permits, the home delivers a truly turnkey experience. Behind the design is meaningful infrastructure: all-new electrical with a 200-amp panel and EV charging, PEX plumbing, HVAC, internal fire sprinklers, and a standing-seam metal roof. Thoughtful architectural and design choices define the interior. A newly constructed walnut floating staircase serves as a sculptural focal point, anchoring the home with warmth and modern elegance. Expansive Milgard windows and a La Cantina multi-slide door frame the coastline and create seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Throughout, minimalist luxury finishes, clean lines, curated materials, and a restrained coastal palette create a refined yet comfortable atmosphere. The five-bedroom, three-bath layout is designed to maximize natural light and connection to the horizon. A flexible floor plan includes one bedroom or office on the main level and four bedrooms upstairs, offering versatility for guests, remote work, or multigenerational living. The kitchen pairs modern restraint with warmth, featuring Bosch and Fisher & Paykel appliances, custom rift-cut oak cabinetry, Neolith-style countertops, and a built-in wet bar with Zephyr wine refrigeration — equally suited for daily living and sunset entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite opens to a rebuilt view deck capturing some of the most commanding panoramas in the city. Vaulted ceilings and a spa-inspired bath with a walk-in rain shower create a private retreat oriented entirely toward the Pacific. The grounds have been professionally regraded and thoughtfully landscaped with drought-conscious plantings, new turf, hardscape, and a natural gas fire feature. Prewiring for a future barbecue and spa allows for further customization. Just minutes from San Clemente’s beaches, coastal trails, pier, and Avenida Del Mar, this is a fully realized ocean-view property where design, infrastructure, and location align. Positioned equidistant between Los Angeles and San Diego, San Clemente offers a quintessential coastal lifestyle in the heart of Orange County — balancing privacy, surf culture, and accessibility.
