Resting serenely on a cul de sac in the 24-hr guard gated Pelican Crest enclave of California’s prestigious Newport Coast, this recently entirely remodeled home is reminiscent of a fine Tuscan retreat.

Well-aged stone pavers blanket the courtyard walkway lined w/half-century-old olive trees & impeccable landscaping. To the right is a sparkling pool & adjacent in-ground spa. The home’s entry is flanked by a pergola & open-air cabaña. The foyer offers a polished stone floor & dramatic staircase. Wide plank Maine wood flooring, custom wrought iron hardware & fixtures, and hand-hewn beams are used throughout. The LR hosts a striking 18th century FP. It’s one of 2 in the home imported from Bordeaux. Here, as in the FR & formal DR, Fr. doors open to garden & lawn, w/ brick walkways, a classic Avignon fountain, & views to open space & ocean. A built-in entertainment cabinet & bookcases, and a cozy FP grace the FR. Nearby, Fr. doors open to an intimate patio w/built-in BBQ & pizza oven. A large country Kit. w/wood beam ceiling & Saltillo tile floor hosts high-end stainless appliances, marble countertops, a double-wide center island & walk-in pantry. An informal dining alcove features dual Fr. doors opening to gardens & walkways. A gallery hallway leads to the 1st-level BR ste. Upstairs are luxurious BRs, BAs, sitting areas, a roomy office or space for relaxed contemplation, and access to rooftop terraces. This stunning property is, indeed, a jewel of Pelican Crest and Newport Coast.
