About This Home

As of June 2025

Located in the heart of Laguna Beach, 1744 Del Mar is a cozy, move-in-ready two-bedroom, one-bath home with breathtaking ocean views from both the living room and the rear of the property. The home features beautiful natural ceilings and great light, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Current plans to expand the home into a spacious three-bedroom, three-bathroom layout (within the existing footprint of the home to avoid design review) are in progress, offering future owners a great opportunity to personalize and grow the space.

The property also boasts a nice private yard that opens up to nearby hiking trails, providing a seamless connection to the natural beauty of Laguna Coast Wilderness Park.

Laguna Beach is known for its vibrant village atmosphere, just minutes away from the property. With art galleries, shops, restaurants, and world-class beaches, it’s the perfect place to enjoy coastal living. You’ll also have access to beautiful parks like Laguna Coast Wilderness Park, offering hiking and outdoor activities right at your doorstep.

This property is a fantastic opportunity for both investors and owner-occupants. Investors will appreciate the potential for growth and value in a sought-after location, while owner-occupants can enjoy the charm of Laguna Beach with room for expansion. The top-rated Laguna Beach Unified School District adds to its appeal. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence or an investment, this home offers the best of both worlds.
