The Cameo Shores community in Orange County’s Corona Del Mar in California is a sea of multimillion-dollar estates—most of which cover their lots with living space.
An exception is this Provencal-inspired ocean-view residence, which sits on a park-like half acre. The extra elbow room created by this two-parcel setting adds an oasis of green that can be used to toss a football around or simply enjoy.
An expanse of landscaped wall shelters the site from the curb and adds a veil of privacy. Flagstone walkways lead through a courtyard to the entry.
Once inside, it’s the backdrop of the ocean that first commands attention. A base of green hedges gives way to a vast horizon of blue water and the sky above. An expansive terrace also takes in the views.
The high-ceiling open-plan great room is a light-filled space connected to a formal dining area, a wet bar and the kitchen. Topped by a vaulted and beamed ceiling, the room is softened by arch-topped windows and a curved stone fireplace hearth.
Venetian plaster walls, reclaimed wood floors and limestone masonry are among the details. Kitchen features include an eat-at center island, multiple refrigerators, a walk-in pantry and a pizza oven.
There’s another bar off the step-down media/family room as well as a home office.
The 6,867 square feet of living space contains a total of four bedrooms and five bathrooms.
Citrus, olive and melaleuca trees surround the lawn. A saltwater pool and spa complete the terraced grounds. An outdoor fireplace sits near the swimming pool.
