The home
About 31232 Palma Drive
Breathtaking, unobstructed coastline, white water ocean views from this fabulous single-level home in highly desirable Monarch Summit I. The views from this street are unbelievable! On a clear day, you can see the San Clemente Pier, San Diego, and La Jolla coves. Plus, you'll see sparkling city lights at night and incredible mountain views. Enjoy vast ocean views on one of the best streets in Monarch Summit I, the Crown Jewel (on 54 acres of tranquil land). Originally built as a 2 BR/2 BA with a den, the owner opened the living room by removing the wall for the den to create a more expansive, open living and dining space where you can enjoy the incredible ocean views. Brand new, high-quality, luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, plus new Berber carpet in the two bedrooms. This home has been meticulously painted with new baseboards and is beautiful! This property is exceptionally light and bright. A private courtyard at the front of the home has room for outdoor seating and dining. Enjoy your panoramic view patio off the dining and living area, which spans the entire south side of the home. The roomy primary suite, with stunning coastline views, has two large closets (plus a smaller closet by the bathroom), and an en-suite bathroom. The other bedroom at the end of the hall is perfect for a guest bedroom and/or office. This is a great floor plan! This is a quiet, idyllic, highly coveted cul-de-sac street. This area of Laguna Niguel, called Laguna Summit, is treasured for its ever-changing scenery and views depending on the marine layer and the sun (it has its "own" microclimate). Plus, it has access to many parks and amenities in each neighborhood and close access to Dana Point, downtown Laguna Niguel, Laguna Beach, Aliso Viejo, transportation, shopping, and restaurants. Monarch Summit I has two clubhouses with beautiful pools, spa areas, and an onsite manager. This street had several of the model homes for the community, and the original owners of several homes on Palma personally selected these very best lots for their unobstructed and incredible views. Minutes to Salt Creek Beach, The Ritz Carlton Laguna Niguel, the Waldorf Astoria, Monarch Links Golf Course, Strands Beach, and Dana Point Harbor (which is undergoing a $400 million dollar renovation). Just to the north is Laguna Beach and the world-renowned Montage Resort and Spa, adjacent to Treasure Island Beach and Park. Laguna Niguel and Dana Point are the jewels of South Orange County.

In cities, the fire zone line follows the State Fire Marshal's 2025 map; each city adopts its own map and may add areas. These lines are not a Natural Hazard Disclosure. Check the official maps and the seller's disclosures before you rely on them.
