Concierge Auctions Announces the Auction of a Beachfront Estate and Buildable Lot Overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Dana Point, California

DANA POINT, Calif., Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A one-of-a-kind beachfront residence and adjacent buildable lot located along the white sands and brilliant blue waters of the Pacific Ocean, known as The Beach House at Dana Point, will sell at auction next month, Concierge Auctions has announced. Bids will be accepted October 3rd–7th at DanaPointAuction.com, with a starting bid of $3.95 million. Originally listed for $10.5 million, the sale of 35851 Beach Road is being conducted in cooperation with listing agents Doug Echelberger and Lisa Adams at First Team Real Estate.

"With both an exquisite residence and an adjacent, buildable lot, The Beach House is quite unique to the Southern California coast. It is rare to have such a large, private estate right on the white sands within Orange County," Echelberger stated. "Moreover, a recent renovation made this already meticulously-appointed residence even more desirable. We are excited to work with Concierge Auctions to offer the highest bidder the opportunity to own this property for their bid price."

Designed by renowned building designer James Glover, The Beach House at Dana Point is a quintessential Cape Cod, architecturally-significant oceanfront property with seafront prominence.  The 4,000-square-foot estate features four bedrooms, five bathrooms and luxurious amenities and finishes, thanks in part to a $1.5 million+ renovation three years ago. The property includes a main floor movie theater, wine cellar, four interior and two outdoor fireplaces, hardwood flooring throughout, a chef's gourmet kitchen and a family room with a separate full wet bar.

Large decks invite the outdoors in and provide panoramic whitewater views from the San Clemente Pier to Dana Point Harbor. The beachfront is a playground with a gorgeous seafront courtyard boasting a stone fireplace, lush landscaping, a sandy fire pit lounge area and a built-in BBQ and glass enclosure. The estate includes two beachfront home sites, making the purchase an incredible opportunity.

"Following our sale of 7 White Water Lane in Dana Point last year, we're excited to return to the southern California real estate market and look forward to another success with this auction," stated Laura Brady, Vice President of Marketing for Concierge Auctions. "Our 'Bid Now' platform offers potential buyers the opportunity to view live bidding activity online, and to place their own bids. This is a rare chance to own an idyllic residence on not one but two lots directly on the beach. It is the perfect blend of location and the ultimate luxury lifestyle."

Located in Southern Orange County, Dana Point is located approximately halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego. It is bordered by the cities of Laguna Niguel and Laguna Beach to the north, San Juan Capistrano to the east, and San Clemente to the south. Dana Point is characterized by nearly seven miles of prominent coastal bluffs and rolling hills along the Pacific Ocean. Most noteworthy of these bluffs is a unique promontory known as the "Headlands" which overlooks Dana Point Harbor, one of the most significant manmade alterations of the Orange County coastline. Dana Point is a popular local destination for surfing.

Buyers can place bids from October 3rd-7th at DanaPointAuction.com. A 2% commission is offered to the buyer's representing broker. The property will be available for preview on Sundays from 1 to 4 pm and daily by appointment. For more information visit DanaPointAuction.com or call 866-605-7287.
