A soulful space where architecture meets atmosphere, wrapped in intention, design, and detail. 33252 Big Sur is a rare coastal offering that effortlessly blends mid-century character with design-driven upgrades, inviting a slower, more intentional way of living just minutes from the ocean. Set behind privacy walls on an oversized corner lot in the coveted Dana Knolls community of Dana Point, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath retreat feels curated more than constructed, layered with craftsmanship, texture, and unexpected moments throughout. Inside, the layout unfolds with quiet confidence. Original doors and warm wood paneling line the walls. Vintage hand-laid tile in the baths offers a nod to the home's architectural roots. Natural transitions between living, dining, and outdoor spaces create a flow that feels both intuitive and intentional. Black-trimmed windows frame lush landscaping, and custom lighting adapts with the rhythm of the day. The kitchen, anchored by Café appliances, lacquered cabinetry, and a handcrafted island, blends form and function without disrupting the surrounding calm. 3 bedrooms and two 2 bathrooms are located on the main level, offering flexibility for guests, remote work, or multigenerational living. The entire second floor is dedicated to the primary suite, where custom built-ins, a private ensuite, and access to an expansive view deck create space for sunrise coffee, mid-day lounging, or stargazing beneath the coastal sky. Outdoors, the experience continues. A recently upgraded and updated pool and spa are surrounded by tropical landscaping, Alumawood-covered patios, and curated hardscape. A floating bridge leads to a firepit lounge tucked behind the privacy walls, while a full outdoor bathroom and shower add ease to poolside days and post-beach living. As the sun sets, the entire yard glows, designed not just for entertaining, but for everyday enjoyment. Additional highlights include a three-car garage with epoxy floors, gated parking for an RV or boat, and system upgrades throughout including roof, HVAC, plumbing, windows, and electrical. Located minutes from world-class beaches, the Lantern District, and the long-awaited Dana Point Harbor revitalization, this is more than a home. It is a design-forward retreat with scale, soul, and story. Built with intention. Brought back to life with care. And now ready to carry YOUR story forward...a home with warmth, rhythm, and soul, ready for whatever comes next.
