Gracefully set atop a secluded, oversized 11,622 square foot corner lot within the prestigious guard-gated enclave of Crystal Cove, 52 Twilight Bluff offers an extraordinary blend of refined design, privacy, and breathtaking coastal views. A long, stately driveway creates a grand sense of arrival and sets the tone for this beautifully reimagined residence spanning approximately 4,188 square feet. Recently remodeled with high-quality finishes throughout, the home showcases premium marble kitchen countertops, new wood flooring, custom glazing, updated lighting and plumbing fixtures, full HVAC system and condensers replaced, and fresh interior paint throughout that enhances the light-filled interiors. Thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and elegant entertaining, the residence features three spacious bedrooms, including a guest casita, four baths, a dramatic third-story tower with stunning 360-degree views, and a versatile bonus room or flex space - ideal for guests, a studio, or extended stays. Sweeping ocean, Catalina & San Clemente Island, and sunset views enhanced by swaying palm trees create a spectacular backdrop from both the interior living spaces and the outdoor entertaining areas. The private rear yard with refreshed landscaping is designed for effortless indoor and outdoor living, highlighted by a stunning raised glass-tiled infinity-edge pool overlooking the coastline. A rare four-car on-grade garage with a distinctive layout further enhances the home’s exceptional functionality. Residents of Crystal Cove enjoy access to the community’s exclusive amenities, including the 2.5-acre Canyon Club with swimming, tennis, pickleball, basketball, and gathering spaces, along with parks, greenbelts, and scenic hiking trails. Ideally located walking-distance from Crystal Cove State Park and the Crystal Cove Promenade’s renowned dining and shopping, and within convenient reach of Fashion Island and John Wayne Airport, this remarkable coastal residence captures the very best of Southern California living. (Should more space be needed, the owner has preliminary plans available for an expansion/addition. Inquire for details.)
