202 Del Gado Road, San Clemente, CA 92672
Positioned close to the coast, this thoughtfully updated mid-century modern bungalow sits in San Clemente's architecturally significant Vista Del Gado community. Designed by renowned architect Chris Abel and limited to only 54 residences, the neighborhood blends iconic design with a laid-back coastal lifestyle. Residents enjoy being up the road from the beach, downtown San Clemente, and Dana Point via a paved trail along Pacific Coast Highway, with coffee shops, dining, and surf close at hand.
Inside, the 912 sqft home has been tastefully remodeled and features wide-plank white oak LVP throughout, installed in 2024 and enhancing the home's warmth. Gently vaulted ceilings with exposed beams create the signature "floating" effect found in Abel's designs, while French doors open to a private front patio with views of the neighborhood and distant mountains.
The open kitchen features white shaker cabinetry, quartz counters, stainless appliances, and a large peninsula with bar seating, illuminated by mid-century inspired globe pendants. The primary bedroom, accented by a classic brick wall, opens to a tranquil back patio with composite decking, also accessible from the secondary bedroom via sliding glass doors.
Additional features include central A/C (rare for this neighborhood), a cool roof, tankless water heater, dual-paned windows and doors, upgraded electrical panel, and a detached one-car garage nearby. The private community evokes the calm of a Palm Springs hideaway, complete with a solar-heated saltwater pool and lush, well-kept landscaping.
Vista Del Gado homes rarely hit the market. This is a unique opportunity to own a true piece of California architecture near the coast in one of San Clemente's most coveted enclaves.
