Gracefully set within the exclusive guard-gated community of Big Canyon, 7 Oakmont is an exceptional French-inspired custom residence that brings timeless European elegance to one of Newport Beach’s most coveted enclaves. Built entirely from the ground up and completed in 2020, the home encompasses approximately 6,466 square feet across a generous 14,170-square-foot homesite, offering five bedrooms and seven baths with an extraordinary attention to scale, craftsmanship, and detail. A stately limestone-framed entrance creates an elegant first impression, opening to a grand entry hall with a sweeping custom iron staircase finished in petit granite flooring and illuminated from above by a dramatic skylight. Beyond, soaring ceilings create a remarkable sense of volume throughout the residence, with heights of approximately 12 feet across much of the home and a spectacular great room rising approximately 20 feet. Three custom limestone fireplaces lend warmth and architectural distinction, while a thoughtful collection of luxury finishes carries the home’s refined French sensibility from one space to the next. The thoughtfully considered floor plan balances grand entertaining spaces with exceptional everyday livability. The main level features a serene primary suite, a dedicated home office, and a private guest suite with its own exterior entrance and direct side-yard access. The guest suite offers exceptional versatility, with convenient access to the pool and the ability to be secured separately from the main residence for enhanced privacy. Three additional ensuite bedrooms are located upstairs, creating a comfortable and private retreat for family and guests, while an expansive upstairs bonus room provides flexible space for recreation, media, fitness, or other lifestyle needs. Designed as beautifully for entertaining as it is for everyday living, the residence extends effortlessly outdoors to one of its most inviting features: an expansive 400-square-foot-plus covered loggia conceived as a true extension of the living environment. Equipped with ceiling fans and heaters, this gracious open-air living space is designed for year-round enjoyment, creating an idyllic setting for lingering dinners, relaxed afternoons, evenings watching television, or gathering for cards and conversation. Completing the outdoor space, a heated five-foot-deep lap pool and separate spa create a private, resort-like retreat, complemented by a built-in bar and BBQ that make poolside entertaining effortless. Adding to the home’s exceptional entertaining credentials is a climate-controlled wine cellar, providing an elegant setting for the collection and display of fine wines. Together with the generous kitchen, expansive great room, covered loggia, and resort-style pool setting, the residence offers a seamless progression from intimate gatherings to sophisticated entertaining. Modern comforts include six-zone HVAC, with the roof, water heater, and HVAC systems all dating to the home’s 2020 construction. Life within Big Canyon is equally distinguished, offering two guarded entrances, regular security patrols, and beautifully maintained community amenities. Residents enjoy two community parks featuring children’s play equipment, a sand volleyball court, half basketball court, and baseball field. Beyond the gates, 7 Oakmont enjoys an enviable Newport Beach setting close to the world-class shopping and dining of Fashion Island, famed beaches, and award-winning schools, while convenient access to John Wayne International Airport places business and leisure travel within easy reach. Grand yet inviting, sophisticated yet wonderfully livable, 7 Oakmont presents a rare opportunity to experience the romance of French-inspired architecture, the ease of contemporary construction, and the enduring appeal of one of Newport Beach’s most prestigious gated communities.
