17 Muir Beach

Positioned on one of fewer than twenty true custom-home parcels in Spyglass Hill, 17 Muir Beach Circle occupies an elevated setting on the neighborhood’s most prized single-loaded hillside street — defined by privacy, separation, and unobstructed view corridors. Of the approximately 346 residences within Spyglass Hill, only a select handful were originally offered as custom lots. Muir Beach Circle represents that rare tier. This parcel stands among the most advantaged — delivering true rear-yard living, meaningful distance from the street, and exceptional openness rarely found at this elevation. From its commanding vantage point, panoramic ocean and coastline views unfold by day, transitioning to harbor lights and a glittering city skyline by night — a perspective widely regarded among Newport Beach’s finest. Yet Fashion Island is just minutes away, with Corona del Mar Village equally close. Rebuilt and comprehensively re-envisioned in 2025, the residence reflects a full-scale reinvestment into both aesthetics and infrastructure. Major systems — Heating and AC, plumbing, electrical, windows, doors, and life-safety integration — were modernized to meet the expectations of contemporary luxury living. The primary show kitchen is anchored by dual professional AGA ranges and complemented by a fully equipped catering kitchen with Viking Pro appliances, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Wolf cooking, and multiple Miele dishwashers. Custom cabinetry with integrated power, Dornbracht and Kallista fixtures, bespoke brass detailing, and curated stone surfaces underscore a no-compromise approach to materiality. Walls of glass frame the horizon, supported by architectural Lutron lighting and Bang & Olufsen whole-home audio. Outdoor living is anchored by an elevated backyard with pool and water features, a private courtyard with fireplace, and terraces rebuilt in custom stone and imported cobblestone. A temperature-controlled 1,000-bottle wine cellar, concealed speakeasy-style bar and theatre lounge, intimate sitting room, and multiple indoor-outdoor entertaining environments complete the offering. Security and privacy are discreetly integrated with gated motor court entry and monitored systems. In this market, views, elevation, and irreplaceable land define enduring value. 17 Muir Beach Circle delivers all three — fully modernized and positioned to serve the next generation of ownership. Most of us will experience about 80 summers. Only a few will live them elevated.
