Curb Appeal: California Chateau by the Ocean

Inspired by the extraordinary chateaus found throughout France, this home in Newport Coast, Calif., is the picture of warmth and elegance. With panoramic views of the ocean, white water and rolling hills -- not rooftops -- the 6,988-square-foot estate really soaks in the beauty of its surroundings.
