Times Real Estate - The L.A. Times’ Best Real Estate Agents in Orange County

Occupying a presence that cannot be denied, this incomparable residence enriches your lifestyle while showcasing phenomenal panoramic ocean, harbor, beach, main channel, sunset and evening-light views from both levels. Set on a bluff in Corona del Mar’s highly sought-after village, the rewards of custom style and attached-home convenience combine in one awe-inspiring architectural masterpiece. Highlighted in the pages of premium publications including Interiors Magazine, the modern, contemporary design reveals two ensuite bedrooms and two-and-one-half-baths, including a posh primary suite with stunning ocean views. A steel-faced fireplace captures the eye in the suite, which displays a soaking tub, two glass vessel sinks, a TV that remains concealed in the ceiling when not in use, a floor-to-ceiling glass wall overlooking the double-height foyer, and a walk-in closet with custom oak built-ins from Italy’s renowned Poliform design house. A stunning floating oak staircase, dark-stained rift-oak flooring, a frameless sliding wall of glass, and a 54 pivoting mahogany entry door demonstrate the immeasurable talents of architect Horst Noppenberger, Aria Design, and Prestige Builders. Approximately 1,943 square feet, the home feels at one with the ocean below thanks to a large stone terrace and walls of picture windows that blur the line between indoors and out while welcoming ever-changing views. Heated travertine flooring, custom indirect and recessed lighting, and state-of-the art whole-house audio, video, and automation systems complement the open and sophisticated residence. The main level’s living room flows without effort to a dining room with built-in seating and an elevated kitchen with dark oak Boffi Italian cabinetry, a dual-waterfall travertine island, stainless steel countertops, and stainless steel appliances including a Miele oven and built-in coffee center. A glass-enclosed office and a loft-style library enrich the home’s versatility. Equally impressive, 303 Carnation’s tranquil cul-de-sac location is coveted by many for its easy access to Big Corona Beach, romantic coves, Begonia Park, shopping, dining, boating, vibrant nightlife and excellent schools.
