Property Description

Behind the gates of The Estates at Rancho Niguel, 14 San Rafael is a commanding corner-lot residence defined by architectural scale, refined detailing, and elevated coastal living. Encompassing approximately 3,403 sqft, this four-bedroom, three-bathroom estate blends grand proportions with livability in one of Laguna Niguel’s most established gated communities. A dramatic double-door entry opens to soaring two-story ceilings, formal living and dining rooms, and a sweeping wrought-iron staircase that sets the tone for the home’s craftsmanship. Marble flooring, crown molding, custom millwork, and a built-in wet bar create an elegant and inviting atmosphere. The family room, anchored by a fireplace and wired for sound, flows seamlessly into the kitchen, forming the heart of the home. The kitchen reflects European influence and enduring quality, appointed with custom cabinetry, marble countertops, a farmhouse sink, center island, walk-in pantry, and professional-grade appliances including a Wolf range and Sub-Zero refrigerator. A breakfast nook framed by French doors opens to the backyard, extending everyday living outdoors. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the primary suite offers impressive volume, its own fireplace, and access to a private balcony capturing hillside views. The primary bath evokes a spa experience with marble dual vanity, a custom-tiled walk-in shower, a jetted tub, and dual walk-in closets. The backyard is composed for privacy and presence, wrapped in balustrade walls and enhanced by landscape lighting. Covered and open seating areas allow for effortless entertaining beneath mature palms and open skies. The residence reflects meticulous care and investment, including windows, A/C system, front door and patio doors, Cove dishwasher, and landscaping drip system, along with a prior full re-pipe — offering aesthetic refinement and meaningful system upgrades. A three-car garage with epoxy flooring and built-in cabinetry completes the property with scale and polish. Residents enjoy exclusive access to The Club at Rancho Niguel, offering lighted tennis courts, heated lap pools, spa, gym, volleyball and basketball courts, clubhouse facilities, and community programming. Beaches, resorts, championship golf, premier dining, and highly regarded schools are nearby. A refined estate within a gated enclave designed for those who value space, privacy, and enduring quality.
