About 26872 Vista Del Mar

A rare opportunity to create your coastal legacy, 26872 Vista Del Mar offers more than a home — it offers a way of life. Perfectly positioned on a quiet interior street in the heart of Capistrano Beach, just two blocks from Pines Park and moments to Dana Point Harbor and San Clemente Pier, this meticulously upgraded DUPLEX invites you to reimagine what’s possible. Unit A is 1333 square feet featuring 2bd/2b and Unit B features 1150 sq ft with 2bd/2ba with no shared walls and no one above or below, ensuring maximum privacy. Whether you're bringing generations together under one roof, crafting a private retreat with room for extended family and guests, or expanding your horizons through creative qualifying with rental income, Vista Del Mar delivers the flexibility to live your beach house dreams without compromise. Each of the two fully independent residences lives with the privacy, autonomy, and comfort of a single-family home - no shared walls, private entrances, separate garages, and separate laundry. One residence features a beautifully modernized open-concept interior with quartz countertops, a remodeled kitchen and baths, and a sleek gas fireplace. The second offers a light-filled open design, updated vinyl flooring, refreshed bathrooms, built-ins, and timeless coastal character, elevated above the surrounding streets to capture gentle ocean breezes, lush palm tree views, and total privacy. Every meaningful capital improvement has been completed with an eye toward longevity and peace of mind: new roof, full repipe, updated electrical, new gas line, dual new water heaters, new ductwork, attic insulation, new AC in Unit A, whole house fan in Unit B, Halo 5 whole house water filtration system and more — all between 2021 and 2024. Property also features 3 electric meters (Unit A, Unit B, and common area), 2 gas meters, and shared water meter. Here, your life unfolds beautifully without the burden of endless projects or costly upgrades. Beyond the walls, the professionally landscaped grounds and undeniable curb appeal set a tone of relaxed elegance, while the vibrant Dana Point lifestyle — parks, beaches, harbors, shops, restaurants, surf and VIBES — are all just outside your door. Properties that blend this level of quality, flexibility, and enduring value are rare. Vista Del Mar invites you to live fully, invest wisely, and create a life and legacy rooted in one of Southern California’s most cherished coastal communities.
