Located atop a commanding hilltop promontory in historic San Juan Capistrano, Casa Grande at Coral Farms is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity encompassing 42.75 acres with sweeping 360-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, surrounding mountains, city lights, golf courses, and the San Juan Capistrano Mission. Rarely does a property of this scale, location, and entitlement flexibility become available in coastal Orange County. The estate is anchored by a Spanish Mission Revival 21,500 sq. ft. multi-use building featuring three residences with nine bedrooms and eight bathrooms, office and conference facilities, and garages with parking for up to sixteen cars. Paved roads, underground utilities, gated entries, and abundant storage provide a strong infrastructure foundation for future vision. Entitlements include permitted plans for a nearly 39,000 sq. ft. Mission Revival primary residence with seven bedrooms, twelve baths, six fireplaces, and unmatched ridgeline views— exempt from the city’s Ridgeline Ordinance. Additional approved uses of the property include guest villas, employee residences, pools and spas, sports courts, barns, stables, and greenhouses. With no architectural review, no permit or plan check fees, and guaranteed, expedited approvals, the property offers development advantages rarely found in California. Beyond its residential potential, Coral Farms is a thriving agribusiness with existing avocado, citrus, and agave production. Expansion plans and feasibility studies for large-scale agave planting and a boutique distillery are available, presenting opportunities for a farm-to-table estate or a branded agricultural enterprise. The property also benefits from its enrollment in the Williamson Act, preserving its agricultural open space while dramatically reducing property tax liability. Based on current valuations, annual savings are estimated at more than $660,000, and the contract transfers seamlessly to the next owner. Located less than 20 miles from John Wayne Airport, five miles from Dana Point Harbor, and minutes from San Juan Capistrano’s train station and equestrian trail system, Casa Grande at Coral Farms combines privacy, accessibility, and heritage. This is more than an estate site—it is a generational acquisition with the ability to create one of Southern California’s great legacy properties.
