Views meet fully reimagined mid-century modern showpiece. Perched high, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, 33042 Palo Alto has 180° panoramic views stretch from the mountains to the Pacific Ocean. On an expansive 13,620sqft hillside, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers approximately 1,939sqft of design-forward living, meticulously remodeled with designer finishes in every direction. The moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal sets the tone: a chic, modern color palette, rich wood garage doors, and manicured landscaping create a warm, architectural welcome. Inside, the entry way is distinguished by rotating dark oak Wood Slat Room Dividers as sunlight pours through nearly floor-to-ceiling windows, framing the flat brick fireplace with terrazzo hearth and illuminating the home’s seamless flow. Recessed LED lighting showcase wide-plank white-oak engineered wood flooring that runs throughout the living spaces, delivering a cohesive aesthetic. Designed for effortless entertaining, the open-concept living area transitions beautifully into the remodeled kitchen. Featuring dark-oak inspired cabinetry, Copa high quality quartz countertops, and clé tile backsplash, a generous center island, and premium all new Café appliances. Stylishly, integrated hood wrapped modern dark oak with custom shelves keep the lines crisp and the focus where it belongs: on the architectural design. The heart of the home, a signature open-air atrium anchors the floorplan, bringing sky, light, and calm into the everyday. Down the hall, two bedrooms enjoy backyard exposure and views that reach for miles, conveniently located near a renovated hall bath with a dual-sink vanity, elegant lighting, and a tiled tub/shower surround. The primary suite is a retreat, offering a custom oversized walk-in closet and an editorial ensuite dressed in pebble-inspired, large-format tile, curb-less walk-in shower with rainfall shower head, dual sinks, and bespoke pendant lighting. A slider welcomes in natural light and connects the suite to the atrium’s serene ambiance. And then, la crème de la crème, the backyard, embrace the unobstructed, endless horizons: sweeping mountain-to-ocean backdrop that transforms morning coffee, golden hour, and evenings under the stars into a daily ritual. Completing the package the home has, all double pane windows & sliders, solar panels, new AC & smart thermostat, ring doorbell and a tankless water heater. This is Dana Point hillside living at its most unforgettable.
