The home

About 1404 Buena Vista 1

Charming ground-level coastal cottage living just steps from the sand in the heart of San Clemente’s North Beach. This freshly painted 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom condo offers convenient step-free living with no interior or exterior stairs and is located approximately 30 seconds from the 204’s Beach access and the San Clemente Beach Trail. From the moment you arrive, the Dutch-style front door sets the tone for a home that is bright, welcoming, and full of character. Inside, classic beach cottage charm is complemented by an open floor plan and thoughtful updates, including laminate flooring throughout the main living areas and an upgraded kitchen with quartz countertops. A beautiful brick fireplace anchors the living space, adding warmth and character that perfectly fits the home’s beachside setting. Both bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled with tile flooring and classic subway tile surrounding the tub and shower. One bedroom offers the privacy of an en-suite bathroom, while the other features a spacious walk-in closet. Open the windows and doors and enjoy the fantastic ocean breeze that comes with living this close to the water, or step outside to the private patio for a quiet place to relax and enjoy the coastal air. Two detached single-car garages provide exceptional parking and storage, an increasingly rare find this close to the beach. What truly sets this home apart is the lifestyle outside your front door. Within moments, you can be on the sand, checking the surf, walking the San Clemente Beach Trail, or heading toward the pier. North Beach is one of San Clemente’s most charming coastal pockets, with the Miramar Food Hall, local coffee, dining, recreation, and the North Beach train station all nearby. Follow the coastline south and you’re minutes from Avenida Del Mar and the heart of downtown San Clemente, where local restaurants, boutiques, cafés, and the pier capture everything people love about this beach town. Dana Point and the revitalized Dana Point Harbor are also just a short drive up the coast. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, a weekend beach retreat, or simply a place where the ocean becomes part of your everyday routine, opportunities like this are hard to replicate. At 1404 Buena Vista, you’re not just buying a home near the beach. You’re stepping into the quintessential San Clemente coastal lifestyle.
