$1,000 off first month special! Among the rarest opportunities ever offered for lease is this meticulously restored Doheny property designed by architect H. Roy Casey. In the 1920s, the Doheny family played a central role in the development of Dana Point, including the eventual conveyance of the harbor lands to the public-an act that helped shape the city as it exists today. The Doheny family is inseparable from the history of Dana Point. It is estimated that fewer than 12 Doheny family-owned properties remain standing today, making this thoughtfully restored offering an exceptionally rare and enviable opportunity. This restoration was undertaken with the guiding principle that a home which has stood for 100 years should be prepared to endure for another century. With that mindset, the property was extensively modernized and structurally reinforced while carefully preserving its historic integrity. Improvements include updated electrical systems, plumbing and drains, central heating, retaining walls, and roofing, along with extensive wood restoration and replacement. Original wood-framed windows were meticulously restored, as were the hardwood floors, which now reflect their original character and craftsmanship. Unit B is a charming and private two-bedroom, one-bath residence that blends historic character with thoughtful livability. The home features multiple secluded courtyards that extend the living space outdoors, creating a peaceful and versatile setting for entertaining, dining, or quiet relaxation. Inside, the living room is highlighted by hand-carved wood ceilings-a rare and striking architectural detail that anchors the home's historic charm. Well-proportioned bedrooms, abundant natural light, and the sense of separation afforded by a fully detached cottage make Unit B feel more like a single-family home than a typical rental. This is a unique opportunity to lease a residence with true architectural pedigree, privacy, and a tangible connection to Dana Point's early history.
