About this home

PRICED UNDER APPRAISAL! Newly offered at $6,680,000 following an $800,000 price improvement. Old World romance. Modern luxury. A compelling new price. Estates like this are not simply listed. They are revealed. There are homes that shelter, and then there are homes that transcend. Château Bella Notte is the latter. Château, French for grand country estate, and Bella Notte, Italian for beautiful night, define this breathtaking modern Mediterranean estate, fully renovated and reimagined with contemporary elegance behind the gates of Hunters Creek, San Juan Capistrano. Set amid expansive private grounds, this 7-bedroom, 7.5-bath masterpiece blends Old World romance with clean, modern design. A grand Cour d'honneur welcomes guests with a sweeping circular drive, manicured landscaping, columned entry and cascading fountain. Step through dramatic double doors into a soaring marble foyer where a sculptural curved staircase rises beneath a breathtaking chandelier. This is not a home. This is an arrival. The chef's kitchen features professional-grade appliances, custom cabinetry and a Cristallo island built for entertaining. Whole-home water filtration, four newer air-conditioning units and solar enhance comfort and efficiency. A dedicated bar room with Old World wine cellar, wet bar and fireplace sets the stage for unforgettable gatherings. The west wing offers a private guest suite with separate living room, bedroom and bath. The crown jewel is an approximately 800 SF detached casita with kitchenette, cantina doors, brick ceiling, indoor BBQ system and fireplace lounge for year-round entertaining. Step outside into your private resort. A dramatic rock pool, spa and three waterfalls anchor an expansive backyard oasis. Italian gardens, sculpted stone terraces and cascading fountains evoke the hillsides of Tuscany, framed by the rolling hills of South Orange County. From intimate evenings by the casita fireplace to celebrations beneath the stars, the estate offers settings for every occasion. Guests can gather poolside, linger over dinner on the stone terraces or retreat to their own private suite. Parking for up to 10 vehicles accommodates gatherings, completing a home designed to be experienced and remembered. And yet the world is right at your doorstep, with Dana Point Harbor, the Riverwalk, exceptional dining and the Pacific Coast nearby.
