About This Home

As of July 2021

Located in one of the most sought-after gated communities in North Laguna, this lavish coastal estate captures style, sophistication and every essence of coastal living. Entering the property through the private front courtyard, you’ll enjoy the relaxing sound of an extensive water feature complimenting the inviting fire pit area. The property boasts soaring vaulted ceilings and a spacious floor plan allowing an abundance of natural light to flow through the home, offering a peaceful and calming energy in every room. The kitchen, dining, family, and backyard entertaining areas flow together seamlessly, maximizing living space while allowing one to take in the ocean breezes. The main level opens through lanai style doors to a beautiful outdoor living space showcasing a resort-like pool and spa. The oversized master suite offers a dual-sided fireplace and opens to a spacious, private terrace overlooking the property and surrounded by lush greenery. Not only does this unique residence capture the elegance of contemporary coastal living, but it sits in a prime location just steps away from the breathtaking ocean cliffs from which it gets its name. Expansion opportunities and a rooftop ocean view deck serve as additional property features. With close proximity to world class shopping & dining in downtown Laguna, world-famous Montage Resort just minutes away, and surrounded by incredible beaches, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Laguna’s coveted coastal estates!
