Best Value Per Sq.Ft!! Welcome to this extraordinary, updated Mediterranean-inspired estate in the prestigious Ravenna neighborhood of Talega. Behind a private gate, a charming courtyard with mature olive trees and a tranquil fountain creates a warm European-inspired welcome. Approximately 4,500 sq. ft., including the loft, this beautifully upgraded home offers 5 spacious bedroom suites, each with a private en-suite bath, including a main-level guest suite with French doors opening to the courtyard. The home is enhanced by designer chandeliers from Restoration Hardware, thoughtfully selected as a significant custom upgrade. Other elegant finishes include travertine and engineered wood flooring, crown molding, stone accents, recessed lighting, and a dramatic wrought-iron staircase. Eight sets of French doors and expansive family room doors fill the home with natural light and create seamless indoor-outdoor living. The remodeled chef's kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a pot filler, a butler's pantry, and generous prep space, opening to the inviting family room. The kitchen was remodeled in 2019. The private backyard is surrounded by mature landscaping and designed for relaxing and entertaining. Upstairs, the versatile loft and built-in workspace complement the luxurious primary suite with views of mature trees, a spa-inspired bath, oversized soaking tub, walk-in shower, and large walk-in closet. Additional highlights include seller-owned solar, a water softener, an epoxy-finished garage with abundant storage, and an ideal location near award-winning schools, parks, trails, shopping, dining, downtown San Clemente, and world-famous beaches. A rare opportunity to enjoy Mediterranean elegance, privacy, and the best of coastal living.
