        <title>Most Expensive San Clemente Homes Sold In 2022</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The San Clemente real estate market has still seen monumental sales even with the shifting real estate market this year. nbsp;The majority of the highest sales took place earlier this year in March and April was well as the summer months June through August, all of them located in the desirable Southwest San Clemente area. nbsp;Often times, the highest sales are dealing with cash buyers who are not effected by the higher interest mortgage rates that we have seen this year. nbsp;For the most part many properties in the San Clemente area did see a slow down with some price reductions necessary in order to get a home sold while other well positioned properties still saw multiple offers. nbsp;Even with the shifting market the number of homes on the market is still very low which has helped maintained real estate prices. nbsp;Its not sure what will happen in 2023 with higher mortgage rates on the horizon and looming talks about a slow down in the real estate market. nbsp;In any case, there will always be opportunity for those who know where to look.


4070 Calle Isabella, San Clemente was the highest sale in 2022 which sold for $14 million in March of this year. nbsp;This was a very large estate property with an approximate 14,999 square feet of living space with a total of five bedrooms in this beautiful Spanish style home. nbsp;This works out to $933.40 per square foot which is a pretty good average when considering the total number of square feet that the home had to offer. nbsp;The home was newly built in 2008 and located in the exclusive double gated community of Cotton Point Estates which was home to the former Nixon White House was located. nbsp;The interior featured its own theatre, wine cellar, fitness center, spa and outdoor pool with ocean views. nbsp;The property was originally listed in June of 2021 for $15,500,000 and was on the market for a total of 182 days.





1820 Calle De Los Alamos, San Clemente was a unique property located on the bluff in Southwest San Clemente. nbsp;I originally had gone through an open house of this property when it was being advertised for lease at $35,000 a month. nbsp;I thought it was odd to have an open house for a rental property when this is normally only done for a property that is listed for sale. nbsp;Well, I guess that paid off for the real estate agents who did this since they ended up selling the home for $8.7 million dollars in June of this year, not too bad for a rental listing turned into a sale. nbsp;Walking though the home it was clear that the home needed some updating. nbsp;The location was an A+ with unobstructed ocean views with the famous T-street beach just located to the north. nbsp;Probably one of the biggest selling features was the huge lot that featured an approximate 15,625 square feet of living space. nbsp;I would imagine if this property was ever torn down there might be the possibility of having this re-zoned for two properties and who knows this might happen in the future.





4018 Calle Isabella, San Clemente was the third highest sale selling at $8,275,000. nbsp;The five bedroom home was located in the gated Cyprus Shore community in San Clemente and offered an approximate 4,145 square feet of living space and stunning ocean views. nbsp;Finding a property in this community with an ocean view is very hard to find so its not surprising that this home sold before it even came on the market. nbsp;The two level home was built in 1998 and featured a 3 car attached garage. nbsp;The interior of the home was just stunning with a wide open floor plan with a Contemporary style wood ceilings, large center island, dining and living spaces that captured this incredible view. nbsp;Cyprus Shore is very popular for those in the surf community as its a private community this is just a short walking distance to one of the best surf breaks in California known as Trestles. nbsp;If you are thinking about buying a home here I highly recommend reaching out to us as some of the best homes located here seem to find a buyer before it hits the market.

        <title>Most Expensive San Clemente Homes Sold in 2021</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
One year after the global pandemic has shown has resilient the real estate market can be in Southern California. nbsp;I think a lot of people were really surprised how strong the market was in 2021 during the summer and fall months and really couldnt imagine it becoming any stronger than it did. nbsp;In fact, 2021 was one of best real estate markets we have had in the last 20 years with many properties selling in just a matter of days of being on the market with multiple offers on a lot of homes. nbsp;San Clemente was no exception as we saw the most expensive home ever sold in San Clemente history for over $33 million dollars. nbsp;Here is a quick rundown of the most expensive homes sold the year up to this point. nbsp;4130 Calle Isabella was the highest sale this year which closed escrow for a record $33,868,480. nbsp;Its located on one of the most prized lots in San Clemente within a gated community called Cotton Point Estates. nbsp;The seven bedroom home featured over 12,000 square feet of living space and came with a 9 car attached garage which was truly amazing. nbsp;It was on the market for a total of 287 days and sold under the original asking price of $38,000,000 on 09/01/2021.





The next highest sale took place at 300 Avenida De Las Palmera in the Southwest San Clemente area in the gated community of Cyprus Shore. nbsp;The eight bedroom home featured over 8,000 square feet and sold for $9.5 million, just under the original asking price of $10 million dollars after being on the market for only 17 days. nbsp;As the photo shown below the home offered wonderful ocean views and located within walking distance to the beach.





The third highest sale took place at 322 W Avenida Gaviota in Southwest San Clemente. nbsp;This was a premier ocean view property that was originally listed at $8,450,000 and sold for $8,100,000 on 7/1/2021. nbsp;If you are familiar with this street then you know the homes are almost considered ocean front even though there are some homes located in front of them but at a much lower elevation so not to block most of the views. nbsp;The home featured a total of seven bedrooms with over 7,900 square feet according to our multiple listing service. nbsp;One of the record sales this year for the area near T-street beach.





As like the first sale, 4095 Calle Isabella, San Clemente was located in the exclusive Cotton Point Estates community which sold for $6,700,000 on 04/20/2021. nbsp;The home was originally listed at $7,500,000 and featured a total of 4 bedrooms with over 6,100 square feet of living space according to our multiple listing service. nbsp;The unique part of this property was its unique Mediterranean design that looks like it came direct from the Tuscany area of Italy. nbsp;This is the same gated community where the famous Nixon White was located as well. nbsp;





The last sale was an ocean front home located in the Cyprus Cove gated community in Southwest San Clemente area. nbsp;3820 Vista Blanca, San Clemente sold for $6,650,00 on 11/10/21. nbsp;The views from this home were truly amazing with an approximate 7,300 square feet of living space with four bedrooms and attached three car garage. nbsp;I had the pleasure of representing this buyer who is truly excited to live in this great home. nbsp;Amenities here include the gated community entrance, community pool, spa, tennis courts, clubhouse and direct walking path down to the beach.





The San Clemente area is really a great price to buy due to its mild climate and proximity to the cities of San Diego and Los Angeles without being too close. nbsp;For information on selling or buying home in the San Clemente area please contact our local San Clemente Real Estate agents at 949-204-5110 today.

        <title>Most Expensive San Clemente Homes Sold in 2020</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
The year 2020 will remembered for a variety of reasons and was surprisingly a good year for real estate in San Clemente, California. The market was good for the first couple of months at the beginning of the year and slowed down dramatically due to the nationwide shut down that occurred in March and April. nbsp;Of course, that didnt last long as COVID19 caused many home buyers the urgent need to find another home that was more suited for staying at home. nbsp;We experienced a lot of buyers coming from the big cities looking to own a home with more land and more interior space. nbsp;Low mortgage interest rates also helped increase the buying power and we started to see multiple offers on many properties in the summer and fall months. nbsp;There were three large sales that occurred in San Clemente which all of them were over the $5 million dollar price point and all located in the Cyprus Shore area of San Clemente. nbsp;This a very popular community located in the very end of the Southwest San Clemente area filled with 4 different gated neighborhoods.


Two of the top 3 sales for 2020 where actually located next to each other on Vista Blanca street in San Clemente. nbsp;3824 Vista Blanca was originally listed for $5,777,8888 and was on the market for only 46 days and closed escrow on 11/23/20 for $5,400,000. nbsp;This property had a lot of interest from multiple buyers due to its bluff front location and attractive price point. nbsp;The home featured five bedrooms, six and a half baths with an approximate 6,907 square feet of living space on two different levels and came with an attached three car garage.





The other sale that was located next door was located at 3822 Vista Blanca. nbsp;This home was on the market for $6,450,000 and sold after being listed for sale for 11 days. nbsp;This was a large home of the two with a total of six bedrooms, five and a half baths with an approximate 8,004 square feet of living space. nbsp;This was also located in the gated community of Cyprus Cove and was located on the bluff front with spectacular ocean front views. nbsp;The video link below shows how spectacular this home is and the wonderful ocean views that can be seen from this location.





The highest sale in 2020 in San Clemente was located in the gated community of Cotton Point Estates which is located within the Cyprus Shore gated community. nbsp;4085 Calle Isabella sold for the full asking price of $6.6 million and closed escrow on 11/23/20 while being sold off market . nbsp;This often happens when a real estate agent knows of a potential seller who wants to sell and a potential buyer who wants to buy and pairs the two of them together and procures a sale. nbsp;This was a six bedroom, five and a half bath home with an approximate 7,152 square feet of living space. This unique thing about this location is that its super secure as you have to go through one 24 hour guard gated entrance then through a second gated entrance to get to this home. nbsp;If you are a surfer then the world class Trestles surf break is also just minutes away as well.

        <title>Most Expensive San Clemente Homes Sold in 2018</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
San Clemente is a small beach town filled with many great neighborhoods and homes. nbsp;For the most part real estate tends to be less expensive the neighboring cities to the north like Dana Point amp; Laguna Beach. nbsp;In years past we have seen some pretty big sales that have sold for over $7.5 million dollars with home located in upscale ocean front communities like Cotton Point Estates, the former neighborhood of the Western Nixon White House. nbsp;In 2018, real estate sales have gone up to $4.1 million dollars as the highest sale this year here in San Clemente. nbsp;The sale occurred 4008 Calle Marlena which closed escrow on 08/19/2018 and located in the guard gated Cyprus Shore community in the Southwest San Clemente. nbsp;


The home was situated on Calle Marlena street which is the second street back from the ocean front and offered panoramic ocean views as well as being able to see Catalina Island on a clear day. nbsp;The home was originally listed at $4,199,000 and sold very quickly after being on the market for 5 days for $4,100,000. I heard through different real estate agents in San Clemente that multiple clients were interested in this property and not surprised that is sold very quickly. nbsp;The home featured a total of four bedrooms, three baths with a reported 2,900 square feet of living space. Even though the home was built in 1979 it was recently renovated in 2016 and offered a beautiful gourmet kitchen with a huge center island equipped with granite counters and top of the line stainless steel appliances. This was a multi-level property which means the upper floors offered the best panoramic ocean views. nbsp;The Cyprus Shore community offers a private neighborhood pool, tennis courts, clubhouse and a 24 hour guard gated entrance and direct walking trail to a private beach.





The second highest sale also occurred in the Southwest San Clemente area near T-Street Beach. nbsp;250 Esplanade sold for $3,750,000 and closed escrow on 7/13/2018. nbsp;The home was originally listed at $3,999,000 and sold for $249,000 less after being on the market for a total of 129 days. nbsp;The five bedroom, five and a half bath home featured 4,035 square feet and located high on a hill with panoramic ocean views. nbsp;I have shown this home before to clients who were impressed with the size of the home and the four car attached garage. nbsp;Its really hard to find a home this size this close to the beach while offering ocean views. nbsp;it obviously checked all of the boxes for the buyer who ended up buying this home in a location that is just a couple houses away from the bluff front. nbsp;The T-Street area is on the southern most point of the Southwest San Clemente area which has a walking bridge that goes over the rail tracks and leads directly down to the beach. nbsp;Its an easy walk to the San Clemente Pier from this area too.





Below are the most expensive homes sold in San Clemente in recent years. For more information about buying or selling a home in the San Clemente area feel free to reach out to any of our San Clemente Real Estate agents at 949-204-5110 today.

        <title>Cyprus Shore Ocean View Homes</title>
    <description> <![CDATA[ 
Its hard to beat living in a private gated community by the beach in Southern California. nbsp;Thats the story of the ultra-exlcusive Cyprus Shore ocean front community that offers a prime location thats within walking distance to world famous Trestle surf break. nbsp;Of course, not everyone can afford an ocean front estate home that currently starts at just under $16 million dollars. nbsp;For those buyers looking for a good deal with homes still offering a view of the Pacific Ocean are in luck as real estate prices are much lower. nbsp;Here is a quick guide on where to look at how much ocean view homes will cost in the Cyprus Shore community.


First, the neighborhood is very small with homes located on the ocean front street of Calle Ariana and Calle Alicia. nbsp;There are a total of four streets behind this that offer a wide range of ocean view and beach close homes. nbsp;Properties in this area are graded slightly higher on the hill which offers more ocean view homes in this community. nbsp;Once you get to the last several streets the hillside levels out so homes will have limited amount of views. Some of the more popular ocean view streets are Calle Lisa which currently offers two ocean views homes listed at $4,295,000 and $4,790,000. nbsp;Both of these homes span over 4,000 square feet with 4 and 5 bedroom floor plans. nbsp;More affordable streets like Calle Louisa offer ocean view homes in the mid $3.5 million dollar range. nbsp;


My favorite street is Calle Marlena which is one street back from the ocean front. nbsp;Its elevated high enough to offer wonderful ocean views and tends to be the most expensive amongst all of the ocean view properties expect the ocean front. nbsp;Homes rarely come on the market here with only one rental home available on this street at $7,500 a month. nbsp;Homeowners association dues are very low and average $310 a month which includes the community community, spa, tennis, clubhouse and 24 hour guard attendants. nbsp;There are also two neighboring neighborhoods that offer slightly lower price points and share the same gated entrance. nbsp;For those looking for homes in the mid $1.5 to $3 million dollar range should consider the Breakers and Cyprus Cove neigborhoods. nbsp;Our team of skilled and local San Clemente Real Estate agents can answer any questions you may have. nbsp;Please reach out to us anytime at 949-204-5110 today.
