Exquisitely reimagined in 2025, this French palatial manor designed by acclaimed architect David Pierce Hohmann pairs timeless European elegance with fresh, modern sophistication. Set on a 13,155+- sq. ft. parcel in the prestigious guard-gated enclave of Pelican Crest, the 8,367+- sq. ft. residence commands sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, Newport Harbor, and the famed Pelican Hill Golf Course. Behind its stately facade, every detail has been elevated with the finest materials and craftsmanship: natural limestone and white oak herringbone floors, hand-brushed Venetian plaster, Moka Creme honed stone in all wet areas, and bespoke solid brass hardware in oil-rubbed bronze or polished nickel. The two-story foyer with antique chandelier leads to a grand staircase, gracious formal living and dining rooms with custom fireplaces, a richly appointed wood-paneled library, and a sun-filled family room with fireplace that adjoins the gourmet kitchen. A culinary showpiece, the kitchen featuring Calacatta Vagli marble surfaces, custom cabinetry, dual refrigerators, professional-grade appliance, and a built-in upholstered ocean-view banquette with custom breakfast table. The opulent primary suite offers a fireplace, spa-inspired bath with an ocean-view soaking tub, architectural glass-block accents for natural light, and a custom-designed closet. Additional amenities include five secondary suites, a tiered theater room, activity/fitness spaces, sauna, steam room, and a subterranean 7-car garage. Additional upgrades include a new roof, new HVAC system, all new plumbing connectors and two new water heaters. Outdoors, new stucco and roofing frame lush entertaining areas with a saltwater pool/spa and BBQ/kitchen with natural stone countertops -- all set against a backdrop of endless coastal beauty. This is Newport Coast living at its most refined -- where architectural artistry meets modern luxury in a rare, view-rich estate.
