An elevated coastal sanctuary set atop a commanding bluff in Southeast San Clemente, 303 E Avenida Cordoba is a rare coastal estate where timeless design meets sweeping ocean grandeur. Framed by unobstructed vistas of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, San Clemente Pier, Dana Point Harbor, and city lights, this six-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence offers an exceptional living experience defined by space, serenity, and panoramic beauty. A gated entry leads to an expansive 12,390 square foot homesite, where a thoughtfully landscaped front courtyard creates a striking first impression and a perfect setting for refined outdoor entertaining. To the rear, an oversized deck and lounge area capture spectacular year-round sunsets while ocean breezes and lush surroundings create a tranquil outdoor retreat. Inside, the home's versatile layout spans two levels, featuring three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths on the main floor, and three bedrooms with two additional baths upstairs. Four of the six bedrooms enjoy captivating ocean views. The primary suite is a tranquil retreat, with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, exposed beams, a cozy fireplace, custom walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath—all framed by sweeping coastal panoramas. Every detail has been thoughtfully reimagined: from highly designed baths and bespoke vanities to custom wood paneling, premium appliances, new LED lighting, and curated fixtures. New custom carpet, full interior and exterior paint, and epoxy-coated garage floors enhance the home’s elevated aesthetic. The lush grounds offer privacy and calm, with mature trees, new drought-tolerant landscaping, decomposed granite gardens, a flat grassy pad, and a new irrigation system. A truly ideal setting for outdoor enjoyment and al-fresco dining, the yard also presents ample space for future expansion or personalization. The oversized garage—with a third bay for a golf cart or collector car—pairs with a long driveway to offer generous parking for residents and guests alike. Ideally located just minutes from San Clemente’s celebrated beaches, boutique shops, vibrant dining, and world-class surf, this exceptional residence blends relaxed California luxury with a rare sense of retreat. Graciously shown by appointment.
