Set behind the gates of the coveted Castaways, 47 Cape Andover offers an exceptional opportunity to secure one of the neighborhood’s most compelling view properties within a beloved, Eastern Seaboard–inspired enclave. Elevated and ideally positioned along the Castaways Nature Trail, the home captures sweeping panoramas that stretch from the glittering nightlights of Fashion Island, across the Back Bay and Pacific Coast Highway bridge, to Newport Harbor, the open ocean, and the distant coastline beyond.
Spectacular sunrises, dramatic sunsets, and the rhythm of morning crew workouts become part of the daily backdrop—an ever-changing canvas of water, sky, and coastal life. The property has recently been refreshed with new carpet, paint, and staging, yet its true value lies in the extraordinary setting and the potential to reimagine or enhance the residence to suit a buyer’s vision.
The upper level is anchored by a spacious primary suite with fireplace, view deck, and a generous bath featuring granite countertops, Jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and large walk-in closet. Two additional bedroom suites share a Jack-and-Jill bath, complemented by an upstairs laundry, elevator, bonus room, and flexible living spaces.
The main level offers a library/den, a downstairs bedroom suite, powder bath, formal living and dining rooms, and a family room with fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with double ovens, black granite countertops, six-burner cooktop, dishwasher, and built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator. A two-car attached garage completes the home.
Arguably one of the best lots in the Castaways—rare, irreplaceable, and ready for its next chapter.
