Set on an expansive 16,000+ sq. ft. lot tucked against the hillside in Meredith Canyon, this extensively renovated 4-bedroom, 3-bath mid-century residence offers a rare combination of architectural character, modern upgrades, and exceptional outdoor living--with no HOA. Thoughtfully transformed since 2015, the home was completely reimagined with an open-concept floor plan designed for today's lifestyle. Hand-stained, resin-sealed concrete floors flow throughout the main level, while a custom glass-railed staircase creates a striking architectural centerpiece. The redesigned chef's kitchen features a large quartz island, stainless steel appliances, custom pantry, and opens effortlessly to the living and dining spaces. A fireplace anchors the family room, while a second fireplace creates a relaxing retreat in the spacious primary suite. A dramatic 14-foot sliding glass door creates seamless indoor-outdoor living. The resort-style backyard is the showpiece of the home, featuring a beautifully retiled and replastered pool and spa, expansive concrete entertaining areas, multiple gathering spaces, and a lush hillside backdrop that provides exceptional privacy. The finished three-car garage is an extension of the home, complete with glass-panel garage doors, epoxy-coated floors, built-in cabinetry, overhead lighting, a workbench, storage drawers, and two 220V EV charging outlets. Professional landscaping and illuminated entry steps enhance the home's curb appeal. All three bathrooms have been remodeled, including the redesigned upstairs guest bath (2025) and primary bath (2021). Significant infrastructure improvements include a fully paid 16-panel solar system, new PEX plumbing (2021), upgraded 220-amp electrical panel, dual-zone HVAC with all new ducting and wireless controls, Renewal by Andersen windows throughout, and California Deluxe sliding doors across the rear of the home. Ideally located just minutes from Dana Point Harbor, Doheny State Beach, shopping, dining, and convenient I-5 access, this exceptional home blends timeless mid-century design with thoughtful modern improvements in one of South Orange County's most desirable coastal communities.
