Tim Smith, a Coldwell Banker Global Luxury Property Specialist affiliated with the Newport Beach office of Coldwell Banker Realty, has broken the home sale record for Seal Beach with the sale of an $11,690,000 custom-built Tuscany villa-style estate. The final closing is $3,090,000 more than the previous highest sale record. Located at 308 Ocean Ave. in Seal Beach, Calif., the approximately 8,646-square-foot residence has six bedrooms and nine bathrooms.
“Resting on a rare double lot on the Gold Coast, this masterpiece personifies refined beach living. Spread over three stories, there are many grand architectural features and fine finishes throughout,” said Smith. “Beyond, the ocean and scenic views from the Seal Beach Pier to Catalina Island serve as an extension of the estate's backyard, making it a magnificent coastal retreat ideal for year-round entertaining.”
With imported elements from France including roof tiles, iron entry gates, antique doors, antique bathroom vanities and new paint throughout, the home encompasses an elevator, 800-bottle refrigerated wine cellar, office space, gym with full bathroom and steam shower, providing the option for a seventh bedroom, and four-car garage with a 220-volt car charger. On the main level, entertaining and relaxation are generously catered to by an ocean-view kitchen fitted with Dacor appliances, two Sub-Zero refrigerators, six freezers and marble countertops with copper sinks and glazed-finished cabinets. The main living and dining areas offer an abundance of natural light from the array of French doors opening to an expansive balcony with views of dramatic sunsets over the sea and pool and spa, the focal point of the property.
Downstairs, a recreation room with a pool table, oversized wine cellar, gym and fully equipped wet bar complete the amenities. Boasting uninterrupted beach views on a grand scale, the verdant and palatial grounds host a serene courtyard and lushly landscaped backyard, complete with a variety of dwarf fruit trees like orange, lime, persimmon, berry and papaya. Other highlights include surround sound and speakers throughout the backyard, an alarm system with monitoring cameras and Homeworks lighting system.
