1 San Mateo

This exceptional Georgian estate, sited on over an acre in Corona del Mar, offers unparalleled privacy and panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean, Newport Harbor, Catalina Island, and city lights. Unassuming and privatized from the street, one will be amazed at what lies beyond the gated entrance. Down a flagstone pathway amidst a sprawling lawn and lush gardens of hydrangeas, roses, and citrus, the main residence welcomes you with a dramatic two-story foyer. Immaculate millwork and fine craftsmanship lend a timeless elegance to the interior, from the coffered ceilings defined by dentil molding to the wainscoting and decorative trim. Impeccably designed with the finest materials including statuary white marble checkered with black granite in the foyer, a pine-paneled library, antique wallpapered dining room, and oak wood flooring. While taking advantage of breathtaking views, the living and family rooms lead to a picturesque veranda with a soothing fountain. Treat the home chef to inspirational cooking in the gourmet kitchen where professional-grade appliances, marble countertops, a butcher block island, and an oversized walk-in pantry await. All five luxurious bedrooms are spacious and include a relaxing spa-like bath. The primary suite is highlighted by a bay window framing the view and a fireplace, perfect for unwinding and watching the sunset over the Pacific from your bedside. Attached to the primary is an additional room, ideal for a home gym, office, or nursery. Down the hall, a spacious media room is accompanied by a sunroom to take in all angles of the view. The lower level was built for entertaining with a large-capacity wine cellar and English-style pub bar. Completing this stunning gem is an entertainer's backyard with an outdoor fireplace, a pool with spa, and a two-bedroom guest house above the four-car garage. Convenience is yours with Fashion Island, Newport Harbor, shops and restaurants of Corona del Mar, and top-rated schools nearby. Don't miss out on the opportunity to own one of the finest estates on one of the largest lots in Corona del Mar.
