The home

About 23 San Mateo Way

Perched atop the prestigious Spyglass Hill community, this extraordinary residence commands one of the most coveted lots in all of Corona del Mar. With unobstructed, panoramic views stretching across the Pacific Ocean, the sparkling coastline of Corona del Mar, the serene backdrop of Catalina Island, and the famed 8th hole of Pelican Hill Golf Course, the setting is nothing short of breathtaking. By night, the dazzling city lights sparkle below, and with no rooftops in sight, every vista is pure and uninterrupted. Set above a private hillside with no homes directly behind, this estate offers both seclusion and grandeur. The expansive, over 100ft wide backyard is a rare find — an outdoor haven with ample space for entertaining, relaxing, or simply soaking in the endless vistas. Step inside to discover timeless elegance, highlighted by a sweeping spiral staircase and soaring vaulted ceilings that create a dramatic sense of space. The thoughtful floor plan features a main-level bedroom, while upstairs you’ll find four additional bedrooms—three of which boast private balconies to fully embrace the spectacular coastal scenery. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with its own private office wing, a spacious walk-in closet, a beautifully tiled spa-like bathroom, and a view balcony that showcases the very best of coastal living. Homes of this caliber, in this location, are exceedingly rare to find on the market—offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Spyglass Hill’s finest.
