A true Coastal gem, this home welcomes you to Niguel Shores, the incredible guard-gated community with direct access to Salt Creek Beach, Strand Beach and the Ritz Carlton!  This is a lovely property that has a spectacular panoramic view from the backyard and angled ocean view from the living room.  This darling property has endless beach charm!  When you enter the gate, you walk into a serene and sunny brick courtyard.  Once you enter the home, you are welcomed by a warm and inviting floor plan which includes the kitchen, dining area, living area and powder bath on the first floor, and 3 bedrooms on the second floor.  The home is very light and bright and there is an adorable kitchen, coastal dining room area and ocean feeling living area with a fireplace.  The two-car garage is detached, and has been a fun space for the current tenant to pursue "crafting" for good causes!  The views are lovely! During the day, you will enjoy an incredible 180 degree view which includes ocean vistas, Catalina Island and Palos Verdes as well as the neighborhood and the hills in the distance.  Lights sparkle on the hills in the evening.  You enjoy lovely sunset skies every single night!  You are near the Selva gate, so it is quick and easy to get in and out of the community.  It is also incredibly easy to go down to Strand Beach either from within the community, or down Selva.  You can hop on your own golf cart and ride it to the Community Center where you will find a huge Olympic sized pool, sand volleyball courts, tennis courts, pickle ball courts, a clubhouse, fire pits and many other amazing amenities.  It is so fun to see the various groups gather at the clubhouse and enjoy the facilities!  The neighborhood also has so many fun clubs and activities for the residents to enjoy:  Bridge club, book club, golf groups, you name it!  There is even a private 4th of July parade just within the community!  You can ride your personal golf cart or car to the beach-side parking lot that lies WITHIN the community, and join neighbors for a bluff-top Happy Hour.  That is why Niguel Shores remains one of THE most popular gated communities along the Orange County Gold Coast!  There is never a lack of fun things to do and ways to meet your lovely neighbors!  The Waldorf Astoria is practically across the street from one gated entry, and the Ritz Carlton resort is next to another gated entry.  You are in the heart of Monarch Beach in Dana Point!
