About This Home
Commanding one of Laguna Beach’s most breathtaking vantage points, this rare mid-century modern estate unfolds with sweeping white-water vistas that stretch beyond Catalina to San Clemente Island. A secluded hillside setting elevates its presence, while appx. 2,430 square feet of inspired design and modern comfort create a coastal retreat of uncommon distinction.
Upon entry, a private lower wing reveals two spacious bedrooms, a shared lounge, direct patio access, and a beautifully designed bath where vintage-inspired tile meets contemporary elegance. Ascend to the main level and discover a gourmet kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and custom cabinetry that flows seamlessly into the dining area, enriched by a striking colored glass window. Floor-to-ceiling windows and soaring ceilings frame the living room, where a dramatic wood-burning fireplace anchors the space and glass doors open to an expansive terrace with unforgettable ocean panoramas.
Outdoors, resort-style living awaits with a sparkling pool and spa, lush lawn, and multiple terraces designed for sunset dining, entertaining, or quiet reflection. The upper terrace presents potential for an ADU, adding flexibility for a private guest suite or detached office, all set against extraordinary coastal views. Mature landscaping, tree-lined privacy, and a spacious two-car garage complete this timeless mid-century modern sanctuary—an estate that embodies the true essence of Laguna Beach living.
