The adjacent dining room faces the ocean with an arched picture window and exudes the warmth of a cozy fireplace. The living room also nestles around the ambiance of a fireplace, with prominent views from statuesque windows and glass doors. The vast interiors seamlessly unite to paver pathways that meander between such alfresco destinations as a custom firepit, pergola gazebo, and multiple settings that savor an eagle-eye ocean view. Exquisite landscaping, including fruit-bearing trees, create a sumptuous backdrop with an exclusive air of privacy. This historical Doheny home in Capistrano Beach is known as Palisades Home #1. Built in 1928 and perfectly exhibiting the significance of post-WWI architecture, the home was commissioned by Ned Doheny. With such a rich and cultured history, this home is a symbol of the area's most famous family who gave 3.5 miles of beachfront land to the state which is now known as Doheny State Beach.
