Description

Experience the rare privilege of vacationing in a timeless S.H. Woodruff coastal estate (one of only 35 completed), masterfully built in 1929 and impeccably restored to the highest standards of luxury. Known for creating the iconic Hollywoodland development and the original Hollywoodland sign, Woodruff’s architectural legacy is on full display in this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence, where historic character meets contemporary elegance. Set in Dana Point’s prestigious Lantern District, the home captures expansive ocean views and offers an irresistible blend of Old Hollywood romance and refined coastal sophistication. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to honor the home’s storied past—original hardwood floors, custom millwork, hand-shaped plaster, and the signature one-of-a-kind arched doorway that exemplifies Woodruff’s artistry. The restoration elevates the estate with discreet modern luxuries, creating a seamless balance between heritage and comfort. Sunlit living spaces, period-appropriate architectural lines, and bespoke finishes elevate the ambiance while preserving the home’s historical soul. Its remarkable curb appeal evokes the charm of early California coastal architecture, framed by mature landscaping and ideal positioning along one of the Lantern District’s most desirable streets. A short walk leads you to Dana Point’s vibrant downtown, boutique dining, surf cafés, and the soon to be reimagined Dana Point Harbor—making this residence not only a sanctuary but a lifestyle. This extraordinary estate is more than a home—it is a showcase of California history, craftsmanship, and luxury coastal living at its finest.
