The story
- Pool
Welcome home to 15 La Paloma Embrace the quintessential coastal lifestyle in this beautifully reimagined, ground-level end unit within the prestigious gated community of Encantamar. Offering approximately 1,200 square feet of light-filled living space, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom residence delivers exceptional privacy with two private patios and unique access to adjacent community space. The home showcases an upscale Farmhouse-meets-Coastal Cottage aesthetic, featuring natural Bristol Rustic Oak hardwood floors, premium Stanton carpeting in both bedrooms, and custom shiplap and woodwork throughout. New dual-pane windows and sliding glass doors (2024) enhance energy efficiency, with extra-thick acoustic glass on the Camino Del Avion side for added serenity. The newly updated kitchen pairs quartz countertops with a tile backsplash, Shaker cabinetry, LG appliances, and a custom-fit Whirlpool microwave. Both bathrooms are spa-like retreats with quartz counters and Shaker cabinets, and a striking rustic barn door marks the entry to the primary suite. The spacious primary bedroom enjoys private terrace access, and its closet was professionally redesigned by Closets by Design within the past year. Outside, custom non-slip tile was expertly installed across both patios and the main entryway in 2025. Parking is covered by a detached 2-car garage with epoxy flooring (2025), a workbench, and extensive built-in cabinetry. Ideally located, the home is just a 5-minute walk from Ocean Ranch's shopping, dining, Trader Joe's, and Cinepolis Luxury Cinemas, and a quick 10-minute drive or bike ride to the beach and Dana Point Harbor. Residents also enjoy resort-style amenities, including a fitness center, clubhouse, and an ocean-view terrace with a fireplace, spa, and a recently resurfaced community pool amid extensive common area upgrades.
