About 34240 Camino El Molino

Reminiscent of the iconic architecture in Palm Springs & the Eichler’s, this mid-century-modern home awaits in the heart of southern OC's best-kept-secret pocket known as ‘Capo Beach’ within Dana Point. Upon arrival via the one-way camino, the single level sits elevated off the street up a large driveway with comfortable parking for five cars, plus a two-car garage. Upon entering, several generous living spaces draw you within. Large clerestory windows, high ceiling plates finished in Knotty Pine planks, newer vinyl wood floors throughout most of the home, two updated bathrooms, and an updated galley kitchen make it clear that since its construction in the early 1960’s, the property has been maintained and updated in period-correct fashion. The kitchen features stainless appliances and newer improvements including plumbing, cabinetry, and fixtures. Off the kitchen, light-filled informal dining with fitting George Nelson saucer light fixture and two major living spaces - the living room (optional formal dining) with gas fireplace and the family room with high ceilings and large-scale picture windows frame the outdoor spaces beyond. Notable values include newer vinyl windows, French doors, re-roofed (less than 10 years ago), some new plumbing, custom window treatments, new heater & A/C condenser, new water softener, added RO drinking water system, newer tankless water heater, and added saltwater jacuzzi. Recent removal of the rear pergola opened up the patio and mature golden rod bamboo was added at the rear for major privacy. Olive trees were planted at the front to enhance curb appeal and privacy. In addition to three bedrooms, this single-level beach house also features dedicated indoor laundry room and home office. An additional half-level above the back bedroom & office space offers ample overhead storage. A centered atrium patio just off the major living spaces is perfect for outdoor dining or lounging, in addition to the two rear patios with private above-ground spa. Located near the intersection of DP, SJC, & SC - this location is central to the variety they offer: The large-scale $600MM revitalization at the DP Harbor, great nearby beaches and access, Sprouts & Trader Joes, Sunset & Pines Parks, all nearby. The historic downtown of SC and world-class surfing. The historic downtown in SJC and the popular new River Street Market. Discover Capo Beach, one of the one of the most desirable places to live in Orange County.
