An opportunity to reside in the coveted guard-gated enclave of Ritz Pointe - one of Orange County?s most picturesque view communities in Dana Point. 11 Santa Lucia is sited on a private elevated lot and features incredible straight-on ocean vistas from multiple points of the home. A double-height entryway leads into the elegant formal sitting room and adjacent dining area, offering endless views as a backdrop for entertaining. The floor plan flows seamlessly into the home?s updated kitchen with an eat-in island, plentiful storage, and a secondary, more casual section for sit-down meals. Quintessential coastal vistas can also be enjoyed from the living area, which has a fireplace and additional access to the home?s backyard. The rear outdoor space features a large covered patio with a built-in table and BBQ, ideal for entertaining year-round while taking in the surroundings. The primary suite on the upper floor is truly a retreat - it offers two oversized walk-in closets and an adjacent study, which can serve as a home office, an additional closet, or a nursery. Double doors lead to a large balcony with breathtaking views of the city, hills, golf course, and the Pacific beyond. The large secondary bedrooms occupy their part of the home for privacy, and the upstairs loft can efficiently serve as a secondary living area. Highly upgraded throughout, 11 Santa Lucia features crown moldings, plantation shutters, and plentiful built-in storage. Ritz Pointe offers its residents two guard-gated entrances and a hiking pathway to Salt Creek Beach. While exceedingly private, the location of this property is highly desirable - minutes away from all Monarch Beach and Dana Point Harbor are known for.
