Awash in natural light and replete with timeless charm, this meticulously upgraded San Clemente residence embodies coastal elegance in the heart of Talega’s San Rafael neighborhood. Set on a serene street bordered by two cul-de-sacs, the expansive two-story home overlooks lush open space, offering sweeping vistas of the championship Talega Golf Course, gentle rolling hills, and glittering evening lights. A spacious wraparound front porch creates a warm welcome, leading into an interior spanning approximately 3,734 sf with soaring double-height ceilings and a striking 3-tier staircase. This home’s layout balances sophistication with warmth, featuring formal living and dining areas ideal for refined gatherings. The family room, a cozy haven with a custom stacked-stone fireplace topped by a 350-year-old reclaimed wood mantle, flows into the fully remodeled chef’s kitchen. Outfitted with premier Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, including a built-in refrigerator and 6-burner range, the kitchen boasts custom quartz counters, pristine white cabinetry, walk-in pantry, built-in desk, and a subway tile backsplash. La Cantina accordion doors blend indoor and outdoor spaces, inviting sunlight and creating seamless access to the backyard. With 5 bedrooms, plus den and 4.5 baths, the home includes a main-level guest room with direct backyard access and a fitness room. Upstairs, 3 secondary ensuite bedrooms—two of which share access to an oversized deck—offer comfort and style, while the grand primary suite provides a sanctuary with fairway views, dual walk-in closets, a sitting area, and a spa-inspired bath featuring Shaker cabinetry, quartz countertops, separate vanities, soaking tub, and a frameless glass-enclosed shower. Modern upgrades include solar power, new wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, designer lighting, plantation shutters, in-ceiling speakers, carpet, archways, custom closet systems, a new water heater, and a 2-car garage with custom storage and epoxy flooring. Outdoors, a 6,212-sf lot boasts fresh landscaping, large patio, and ample room to realize visions of a resort-style pool, spa, and outdoor kitchen. Just a stroll away from the acclaimed Vista del Mar K-8 school and moments from Talega Village Center’s shops, restaurants, the Talega Golf Club, parks, swimming pools, and San Clemente’s iconic beaches and pier, this exceptional residence perfectly captures coastal California living at its finest.
