DESIGNER'S PASSION PROJECT: Situated on a desirable corner lot in one of San Juan Capistrano’s most charming neighborhoods, this custom-transformed residence at 31841 Paseo La Branza is the result of over 30 years of passionate vision, creativity, and craftsmanship. Originally a well-built tract home with great potential, it has been thoughtfully expanded and reimagined by a professional designer into a one-of-a-kind showpiece.
More than 1,000 square feet have been added, ceilings and doorways have been elevated, and every architectural detail has been refined to create a cohesive, high-end aesthetic. The result is a four-bedroom, three-bath home with the quality and sophistication typically reserved for custom estates.
Highlights include solid wood interior doors (upstairs), custom cabinetry, coffered ceilings, and premium appliances. Indoor-outdoor living is seamless, with the gourmet kitchen opening directly to a covered patio and a lush backyard retreat featuring a sparkling pool and spa. Function meets beauty with thoughtful features like a second-floor "Tower Room" offering direct access to the backyard via an exterior staircase, and a rare drive-through three-car garage—ideal for trailers or recreational vehicles. Every inch of this home reflects pride of ownership and a designer’s eye for both form and function. With no Mello-Roos or HOA, affordability is improved. And with near-perfect weather year round, there are nearby Pickleball courts, hiking and biking trails with a dedicated bike path to the beach. This is a rare opportunity to own a truly special property, meticulously curated over decades and ready to be cherished by its next fortunate owner.
