Strand Dream Home Sold For $23.55 Million, Realtors Get Creative

Local real estate agents have gone to great lengths to showcase some of Orange County's priciest properties and clients are loving it.

DANA POINT, CA — They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but what about a Youtube Real Estate ad campaign? Enter the world of mini-movies by realtors such as Orange County agent Frederick Eklund of Bravo's "Million Dollar Listing."

Perhaps it was his insane client list, or maybe it was the adorable twins having a cook-off on the back patio of this Strand residence, but the house sold for more than the asking price, according to the Orange County Register.

Clever Youtube.com ad campaigns, such as Eklund's adorable twins, are the new mechanism by which Orange County Real Estate agents are getting these properties seen.

Water cascades from the infinity pool onto a lower terrace surrounded by lush grass, contributing to the distinctive profile of the home. The walkout lower level of the home features a state-of-the-art screening room with a 98 viewing screen, bar and wine wall, generously sized gym, and a spa boasting a massage room with sauna and steam functionality. Dual lounges with expansive ocean views enhance the resort-like feel of the property.

A gourmet kitchen is defined by double islands and a backlit blue onyx wall. Step into the upper-level master suite and enjoy a private terrace with a perched vantage point. Dual his/her master bathrooms and lavish closets create an oasis that is equal-parts indulgent and constructive.

Unparalleled detailing throughout the home establishes an elegant and exclusive feel. From Jerusalem limestone to mother of pearl, no detail falls short of pure luxury. Direct beach access makes 33 Strand Beach a uniquely special property.

Or, we could just show you the twins, and how they have a dance party with dad, decorate cookies, and cook at the beach. Over 13,000 watched the video since last summer. After multiple offers, Eklund has finally helped this owner make a deal.
