Known as the "Villa Vista", this masterwork of Spanish Revival architecture with Moorish influences unfolds behind private iron gates spanning nearly 1.5 acres. Layered with contemporary sensibility, yet faithful to its timeless romance. The arrival sets the tone. A sweeping curved driveway framed by more than 100 mature palm trees ascends to a circular motor court centered by a grand fountain, delivering a first impression like arriving at a private resort. Beyond a custom hand-carved arched door, a dramatic double-rotunda entry pairs imported Saltillo tile with leaded stained glass windows introducing light and craftsmanship that continue throughout the home. The living room unfolds beneath soaring, wood-beamed ceilings, a hallmark of Spanish architecture, where arched windows and doors open to a Cantera Stone balcony overlooking San Juan Capistrano. A massive stone fireplace anchors the room, while rich mahogany flooring and iron rod banisters trace the floating staircase connecting three expansive levels. The formal dining room offers an intimate and dramatic space, and the freshly designed kitchen pairs a 72-inch commercial refrigerator and 60-inch Thermador range with a dry bar and breakfast nook overlooking the kitchen garden, embracing hacienda living. Three remodeled ensuite guest bedrooms occupy the main level, each with a private balcony and full bathroom.
