The exquisite work of Costa Mesa’s Brandon Architects continues in Corona del Mar at this dazzling 7,376-square-foot abode. Built in 2017, the five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home is highlighted by expert craftsmanship in the form of light oak floors, handcut limestone, imported marble baths and a spectacular two-story glass wine wall in the dining room. The primary suite occupies the entire top floor, where its dwellers will enjoy a dedicated sitting area with a fireplace, expansive terrace and even a mini kitchen equipped with a Miele coffee machine. Entertainment enthusiasts will be equally charmed by the lower-level sports bar and lounge, a gaming and billiards space and a top-notch theater outfitted with a 145-inch screen. Finally, lush landscaping and a sun-kissed pool and spa ensure delight awaits outdoors as well. Rob Giem, Compass, 949.933.7046, robgiem.com; compass.com

While this Newport Beach mansion in the Upper Back Bay is the most sticker-friendly of the three listings, it’s also the largest of the properties, offering the most bang for your buck. Clocking in at a whopping 12,038 square feet, this luxe retreat includes six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, all situated behind private gates for maximum seclusion. Auto junkies will have plenty of room for their hot wheels in the dual garages, which offer space for up to 11 cars, while a gourmet kitchen with leathered granite countertops, top-of-the-line appliances and two islands, featuring scratch-and stain-resistant Kedra countertops, will please the cook in the family. When you’re not relaxing in the soundproof home theater while sipping vino from your private cellar, head to the showstopping backyard to take a dip in the pool, rinse off in the outdoor shower or entertain in the 1,500-square-foot covered outdoor kitchen—complete with a built-in barbecue, rotisserie grill, warming drawer, oversize glass refrigerator and nugget ice machine.
