Description

Welcome to Monarch Bay, one of the premier gated coastal communities in south Orange County. This residence is among the rare remaining mid-century homes in Monarch Bay and was designed by architect Knowlton Fernald Jr. AIA, who is renowned for also designing the original Monarch Bay Community entrance, the Monarch Bay mall, and other significant mid-century homes in Monarch Bay and surrounding premier neighborhoods.

The home’s striking design is set among the highest points in the community providing inspiring Ocean Views down to Salt Creek and the Ritz Carlton. Along with a generous lot and large side yard the property serves well for future desired expansion. The floor plan beckons the ocean breezes and bathes the great room and dining area in natural light while providing a captivating ocean view and an indoor-outdoor lifestyle inclusive of sliding French doors on two sides. This home has been lovingly cared for and regularly maintained during its 58-year history and is now offered for sale for the very first time. Once arriving at the main level, the residence provides a convenient floorplan with a generous ocean view primary suite and full bath, powder room, kitchen and serving bar, with adjacent great room with fireplace and dining area. All these comforts are offered on the same level and open to a large ocean view deck. The lower level offers an ocean view bonus room with office area, vestibule, game area and two additional generous bedrooms, tiled hall bath and inside laundry. The convenient direct entrance from the two-car attached garage and large driveway also provides plenty of parking for guests. Charming outdoor surfer shower, spa area, beach gear storage cubby, garden, and an extra large side yard area that can provide space for an ocean view ADU or expansion. 409 Monarch Bay presents the perfect opportunity to restore or rebuild your dream coastal beach home and offers its residents exclusive membership to the highly sought after amenities at the beach club and additional community amenities.
