It is rare that a property in a true historic district ever comes to market. Most of these iconic residences are passed quietly from one generation to the next. For only the second time in 53 years, this one-of-a-kind location is now available to the public. Resting on a prominent corner lot directly across from the San Juan Capistrano library and just steps from the Historic Mission Basilica, this extraordinary home places you in the very heart of downtown San Juan Capistrano. From your own courtyard, you can hear the church bells ring—an experience few will ever know. Architectural details reflect the timeless craftsmanship of another era: arched walls, open-beam ceilings, original lath and plaster, hardwood floors, and a classic clay tile roof. The home offers a formal dining room, a separate family room with walls of glass, and a layout designed for both elegant entertaining and everyday living. From nearly every window, the views tell the story of the historic city beyond the glass. The property offers two distinct courtyard settings—one enclosed, where indoor living becomes an outdoor experience, and the other framed by privacy hedges and stone walls, creating a serene and intimate retreat. A truly irreplaceable opportunity in one of California’s most storied locations.
