The oceanfront Spanish Colonial Revival-style house is one of the original Doheny family homes along Capistrano Beach.
A trio of double French doors open to the beachfront patio. The actor Anthony Edwards has put his longtime Capistrano Beach home in Dana Point on the market for $6.5 million. A low cement wall separates the property from the beach. Actor Anthony Edwards of “Top Gun” and “ER” fame has put his historic Dana Point beach house of more than two decades on the market for $6.5 million.
The five-bedroom, 2,166-square-foot Spanish Colonial Revival style with five bathrooms is part of the Capistrano Beach development initiated by the Dohenys, the prominent Southern California oil family for whom Doheny State Beach is named.. The oil tycoon’s son, Ned, then set out to develop a community of Spanish-style houses, but tragedy cut the project short. Ned was killed in his Beverly Hills mansion in 1929 by his secretary, Hugh Plunkett, who then turned the gun on himself.
Completed in 1928, the house sits behind a wall on nearly a third acre. A low cement wall separates the backyard from the sand. Edwards, identified by the listing agency Compass as the homeowner, purchased the house in November 1998 for $1.525 million. Marketing materials describe it as “reminiscent of a Mediterranean courtyard villa” enclosed by covered arcade walkways and patios.
Natural wood-beamed accents embellish the vaulted and half-vaulted ceilings throughout the interior, except for the kitchen. Tile covers its barrel ceiling and countertops.
