Buffalo Bills’ star quarterback Josh Allen is the owner of a 2,808-square-foot house in Dana Point’s guard-gated Monarch Bay.
According to a person familiar with the July 5 deal who asked not to be identified, the six-foot-five NFL player bought the house for $7.2 million, paying 4% less than the initial $7.5 million asking price.
The single-story beach house completed in 1962 and updated, sits on a flat, quarter-acre lot. It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and floor-to-ceiling glass walls.
Even as they extend the open, airy floor plan to the outside, the house is secure from prying eyes.
Large pavers cut a path to the front glass door inside the gated courtyard.
The foyer forks off to different areas of the home, including the dining room to the right. Behind the foyer is the family room with a black brick fireplace and built-in cabinets. The kitchen is small and streamlined.
A large lawn dominates the backyard, with ample room for a future pool or home expansion. As the listing reads, you can “enjoy this amazing beach home the way it is or design your future dream home.”
The Monarch Bay neighborhood surrounds a members-only beach club with resort-style amenities such as tennis and golf nearby.
Philip Immel and Ryan Immel of Pacific Sotheby’s International Realy held the listing. Andy Stavros of Douglas Elliman of California represented Allen.
Allen, 27, is among the elite quarterbacks in the NFL. In August 2021, he signed a six-year, $258 million extension that puts him under contract with the Bills through 2028. He is also an avid golfer.
