A “Trophy Property” in the truest sense, this irreplaceable Newport Beach family compound, masterfully redefined by the one-and-only Skout Interior Design, is sited on nearly an ACRE of private gated land just steps from the Back Bay. The result is a mid-century modern sanctuary designed for the highest level of tranquility, entertainment, and privacy. The heart of the home is a stunning open-concept kitchen and family area, where walls of glass dissolve the boundary to the outdoors, overlooking an expansive living space shaded by magnificent trees. A grand gated entrance opens to an immense driveway, offering extensive parking for multiple cars and recreational vehicles. The mid-century modern architecture, artfully set at an angle upon the lot, creates a home where air and light travel effortlessly through vaulted ceilings and massive, floor-to-ceiling glass walls. The residence thoughtfully accommodates family and guests with 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, an office, a family room, a den, and a newly constructed 620 sqft. bonus room ideal for a gym or media lounge. Bespoke finishes like custom fabricated terrazzo, basalt tiles, leather granite and custom white oak cabinets are perfectly layered throughout the home . A newly built 3-car garage is a showcase in itself, featuring epoxy flooring, custom hex lighting, specialized cabinetry, a laundry area, and a sink. The harmonious landscape architecture, curated by Garden Studios Design, envelops the residence in natural beauty, over 43 mature trees creating a lush, private canopy. The sprawling grounds are a private resort unto themselves. A lazy river pool with a waterfall meanders under a bridge and wraps around a secluded spa island. Adjacent to the pool is huge play area or potential ADU/pool house site with underground utilities. Entertain year-round with a built-in BBQ bar with a sink, a putting green, and a large dirt track offering future possibilities for a pickleball court or other amenities. Simply put, 2301 Santiago Drive is a fully-realized world of sophisticated style and unparalleled luxury—a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a true family compound in Newport Beach.
