Perched in the hills of North Tustin, this extraordinary Early California Spanish-style estate boasts breathtaking 180-degree views stretching from Newport to Palos Verdes. A true hidden gem, this historic property has only been publicly listed once in 75 years, passing privately between owners who have cherished its rich heritage.
Set on nearly an acre, this gated sanctuary spans 4,705 square feet, featuring a 4,145-square-foot main house over a 2 car garage and a 560-square-foot casita complete with a kitchen and bath over an additonal 4 car garage. Designed for both elegant living and grand entertaining, the home offers the potential to expand its footprint by incorporating an additional 900 square feet of storage space on the ground level.
The main house exudes timeless charm, seamlessly blending classic architecture with modern comforts. Inside, four spacious bedrooms and three beautifully appointed bathrooms provide a luxurious retreat. A dedicated wine tasting and storage room, along with a butler's kitchen, enhance the home's functionality. The dramatic formal living room, anchored by a striking fireplace, is lined with walls of glass that frame the spectacular scenery. Adjacent to the kitchen, the formal dining room is perfect for intimate dinners or larger gatherings.
The chef's kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, featuring custom cabinetry, an industrial oven, dual sinks, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine refrigerator, and dual dishwashers, all complemented by authentic tile accents and expansive countertops. Access to all levels is effortless with an elevator and two staircases.
The impressive exterior of 1681 La Loma is a testament to its grandeur. The sprawling .93-acre lot offers endless outdoor possibilities, including a 470-square-foot pavilion with a built-in kitchen and BBQ area, lush lawns, and meticulously manicured drought-resistant gardens. The six-car garage provides ample space for vehicles and storage.
Ideally located just 15 minutes from John Wayne Airport, pristine beaches, and top-rated Tustin schools, this rare offering presents an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying the finest modern conveniences.
The 4,145 sqft main house will be available for lease starting March 15, 2025, at the listed asking price. The detached casita may be included in the lease upon request, with one month's notice and subject to negotiation.
