28821 Drakes

Property Overview
Tucked away in one of the most coveted locations within Hillcrest Estates, 28821 Drakes Bay offers a rare combination of privacy, luxury, and breathtaking natural beauty—backing directly to Aliso Creek/Wood Canyon with no rear neighbors and unobstructed sit-down canyon views from both levels. This expansive residence showcases the largest floor plan in the community, enhanced with a builder-option 5th bedroom and a thoughtfully designed custom bonus room—ideal for a home office, media space, gym or playroom. A grand foyer welcomes you with soaring ceilings and a striking circular staircase, setting the tone for the home’s elegant interior. Thoughtful upgrades throughout include custom craftsman doors, crown molding, designer baseboards, central vacuum, and integrated sound wiring. The gourmet kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring dual sinks, a center prep island, and a distinctive wood breakfast bar, all opening to a light-filled breakfast nook with French doors that frame the stunning canyon backdrop. The adjacent family room offers warmth and sophistication with a stone fireplace and custom built-ins. A highly desirable main-level en-suite bedroom provides flexibility for guests or multi-generational living. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a dual-sided fireplace, sitting area, and sweeping canyon views. The spa-inspired primary bath includes dual vanities, a soaking tub, separate shower, and an oversized walk-in closet. Additional upstairs bedrooms include a versatile expanded bonus/playroom. Step outside to a resort-style backyard designed for unforgettable entertaining—featuring a saltwater PebbleTec pool and spa, cascading waterfalls, built-in BBQ island with bar seating, fire pit, and beautifully curated landscaping—all set against panoramic sunset views. Additional highlights include repiping and numerous custom upgrades throughout. Solar panels are all paid off! This is a rare opportunity to own a premier view property in one of Laguna Niguel’s most desirable communities.
