San Clemente Real Estate Blog

There were only forty-one properties on the South Area Preview Sheet this week and many were re-previews of listings that have not sold. Since it is not humanly possible to see all of the listings on preview every week, you have to choose, and from my selection, I blog on what was interesting and/or great deals.

In Dana Point this week there is a new listing for a 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo with really great ocean views. This is on the pricey side, but shows like an "artists" getaway. A little funky and you need good knees for all of the stairs, but worth seeing.

For seniors, a new listing in Sea Bluffs at Dana Point has recently come on the market. This two bedroom, two bath unit has wonderful ocean views. This is a single level condo within a full-service retirement community. There is a monthly clubhouse fee of $2,640 which covers utilities, maintenance, housekeeping, two meals per day, insurance, parking, security, transportation, etc.

San Clemente had several new listings that were noteworthy this week. A new listing in Forester Highlands for a 5 bedroom, 2.75 bath home with 3000 square feet. The home is nicely done and has great curb appeal.

There are several new listings in the Vilamoura condo development in Rancho San Clemente. All units that were on the preview sheet this week were 2 bedrooms with either 2 or 2.5 baths. They ranged in price from a low of $499,000 to a high of $749,500 for an end unit with an ocean view.

Another great condo property in Ocean Hills came on the market and this unit has just been redone - it shows like new and has fabulous ocean views for a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath unit.

I previewed two great homes that just have a ton of potential - both in Southwest San Clemente. The first is a 4 bedroom, 3 bath with approximately 3000 square feet that backs onto the coastal canyon with an amazing feel. This property has so much potential for the right buyer who can enjoy and appreciate a part of San Clemente many don't even know exists. The mature trees and creek running by lend a very serene and relaxing atmosphere with wonderful decks to take it all in.

The second noteworthy home is also located in Southwest San Clemente and is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath single level home with 1800 square feet. This home shows like a staged property and the attention to detail is amazing. Behind the detached over-sized garage is a small studio that is detached and would make a great office/studio and playhouse. The large grassy yards, front and rear lend themselves to children or dog play or the house can be expanded. This has loads of potential and feels great!
