The Calle Marlena Residence is a masterfully reimagined coastal retreat, blending modern architecture with warm, organic design. Originally a 1970s home, this approximately 3,800 sq.ft. residence has been transformed by renowned local architect James Glover into a sophisticated ocean-view sanctuary featuring 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. Designed to maximize panoramic ocean views and seamless indoor-outdoor living, the open-concept floor plan is enhanced by expansive pocketing door systems that dissolve the boundaries between interior spaces and multiple private courtyards. The entertainer's exterior is equally impressive, featuring a resort-style spa, multiple terrace levels, and a sprawling ocean-view patio strung with café lights — perfect for evening gatherings under the stars. A dedicated fire pit lounge area and built-in outdoor media wall with seating extend the living space well beyond the interior walls. An upper-level deck with a sculptural bowl fire pit and glass railing captures breathtaking sunset views over the Pacific and out to Catalina and beyond, offering an intimate setting for year-round outdoor living. A private primary suite courtyard — complete with a suspended rope swing daybed — opens directly to the bedroom through sliding glass doors, creating a tranquil indoor-outdoor sanctuary. The chef's kitchen is a standout, showcasing custom walnut cabinetry with integrated panel appliances, dual leathered granite and travertine island surfaces, professional Wolf gas range, Wolf double wall ovens, a built-in wine refrigerator, and globe pendant lighting — all flowing seamlessly toward the outdoors through expansive folding glass doors. Natural materials were thoughtfully curated throughout, including wide-plank wood and limestone flooring, custom walnut cabinetry, leathered granite and travertine countertops, copper accents, stucco finishes, and rich stone elements. Situated behind the private gates of prestigious Cyprus Shore, residents enjoy direct beach access at both gates, community pools, tennis and pickleball courts, and a landscaped park with a serene koi pond. World-class surfing at Trestles is just minutes away, making this one of the most coveted addresses on the Southern California coast. The result is a timeless expression of modern organic architecture — elegant yet inviting, refined yet comfortable — offering an exceptional coastal lifestyle in one of San Clemente's most desirable locations.

Among the most significant oceanfront estates along Southern California’s coastline, this nearly three-acre compound occupies a commanding position atop a bluff within the guard-gated enclave of Cotton Point Estates. Set directly above private shoreline and moments from the legendary waves of Trestles, the property offers sweeping panoramic views, exceptional privacy, and a rare connection to one of the region’s most celebrated coastal landscapes. Originally designed in 2007 by noted architect James Glover, the residence reflects timeless Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean architecture, thoughtfully oriented to capture ocean, sky, and sunset from every principal room. Following its acquisition, the estate underwent an extensive, multi-year transformation that elevated the property through comprehensive architectural renovation, reimagined landscaping, advanced audio-visual integration, pool reconstruction, refined kitchen and bath improvements, custom plasterwork, infrastructure and systems upgrades, and a fully realized interior design program. The result is a residence that preserves architectural character while delivering the scale, comfort, and finish expected of a world-class coastal home. Spanning approximately 13,000 square feet, the compound offers seven bedrooms, seven full baths, and three half baths across expansive formal and informal living environments, complemented by a wine cellar, a prep kitchen, and a separate three-bedroom guest residence. Privately set within its own wing, the primary suite enjoys beautiful views, while every major space opens to gardens, terraces, or uninterrupted ocean horizon. The grounds unfold across sweeping lawns, secluded courtyards, and layered terraces leading to roughly 450 feet of ocean frontage and a striking 55-foot pool oriented toward uninterrupted coastal views. An event lawn and nine-car garage complete an estate designed equally for private retreat and large-scale entertaining. Defined by scale, privacy, architectural pedigree, and extraordinary reinvestment within one of the coast’s most protected oceanfront enclaves, this offering is a truly rare Southern California estate.
