Nestled along the pristine shores of Capistrano Beach, this architectural masterpiece by the revered Christian Abel not only celebrates coastal living but also pays homage to a rich familial legacy deeply rooted in Southern California's artistic landscape. Located within the guard-gated enclave of Beach Road, this mid-century home stands as a testament to Abel's unparalleled talents, offering sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean that stretch from the iconic San Clemente Pier to the rugged cliffs of Dana Point. Crafted in 1976, the home's design remains a symphony of openness and luminosity, embodying Abel's visionary approach while seamlessly integrating contemporary luxuries. Stepping through the private side entrance, guests are greeted by a grand two-story foyer adorned with a glass ceiling and exquisite stained-glass doors. Throughout the residence, you will see signature mid-century elements—wood ceiling beams, tongue-and-groove finishes, and fluid living space—which imbue the home with a timeless elegance. Infused with natural light and privacy, the residence reflects Abel's mastery honed over 25 years in San Clemente and the Abel family's 90-year legacy shaping Laguna Beach's artistic scene. The modern front elevation and clerestory windows on the sides harmoniously blend with the coastal surroundings, while floor-to-ceiling windows frame uninterrupted ocean views. Spanning approximately 2,135 square feet and sitting on caissons built down to the bedrock, the home boasts three bedrooms and two-and-one-half baths, including a secondary bedroom adorned with built-in bunk beds. The primary suite, a tranquil sanctuary overlooking the azure expanse, features a view deck, walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath. Don't miss out on the chance to claim a piece of coastal paradise embodying the legacy of Chris Abel and Southern California's artistic heritage. Embrace the unparalleled views, timeless elegance, and vibrant sense of community waiting for you in this architectural masterpiece.
