Listed for sale in Monarch Beach (Dana Point) and relatively new to the market is a home for sale with a sleek contemporary style and ocean views.

Actually, it’s almost oceanfront, but not quite.

Located at 325 Monarch Bay Drive, the home is listed for $4,995,000 and has 3 bedrooms, 3.2 bathrooms and 3,000 square feet of living space on a 7,030-square-foot lot.

That breaks the price down to $1,665 per square foot.

Here’s the listing description:

Artistically designed for a modern lifestyle. The massive great room completly opens to an extra large lanai with firepit and the unmatched view over the Pacific.

There aren’t a whole lot of oceanfront living opportunities in Dana Point – you have The Strand and the Beach Road community and some homes on Breakers Isle in Niguel Shores and not much else other than that. This home isn’t oceanfront, but it’s close and doesn’t have the bothersome Amtrak train running behind or in front of it.

This home has no Mello-Roos taxes and two quarterly HOA fees: one is $674 and one is $595.
