Property Description

Perched on a coveted peninsula lot within the guard-gated enclave of Pelican Ridge, this exceptional residence offers a rare opportunity to acquire and reimagine one of the most extraordinary settings along the Southern California coast. Secluded down a long private drive, the property unfolds across a sprawling, all-flat 21,810 square foot parcel—showcasing an unparalleled 194 linear feet of breathtaking view frontage. From serene, open green canyons to the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean, the panorama stretches endlessly toward the horizon. The Mediterranean-style estate encompasses approximately 6,978 square feet of living space, thoughtfully expanded to host eight generous bedrooms and seven and one-half bathrooms. With four bedrooms situated on the main level and four additional bedrooms on the upper floor, the home offers a rare blend of volume, flexibility, and scale to accommodate a range of lifestyles. Designed with a grand aesthetic, the residence is defined by expansive living and entertaining areas, seamlessly connecting to the remarkable outdoor grounds. A covered loggia, open lawn, tranquil water feature, pool, and spa complement the commanding architecture, while a circular motor court crowns the estate’s long private drive—enhancing both privacy and presence. Offered in as-is condition, this is an extraordinary canvas for those seeking to renovate or rebuild on one of Pelican Ridge’s most desirable and seldom-available parcels. With its rare combination of size, frontage, and seclusion within a prestigious Newport Coast community, this offering must be experienced firsthand to fully grasp its promise, scale, and unmatched potential.
