About This Home

As of March 2015

Perched on a promontory over the ocean, this iconic Laguna Beach estate offers a rare opportunity to experience the ultimate Southern California lifestyle. A "landmark" residence, this stunning 3-level home was meticulously rebuilt with extraordinary attention to detail, superior construction and contemporary conveniences. It neighbors Ruby Street Park and boasts unobstructed views from virtually every room. The sands of Woods Cove are below, accessed by a private staircase. A gated drive leads to a 2-story rotunda foyer and amenities including beamed ceilings, original wood floors, an elevator, 3 fireplaces, a steam shower and an open kitchen with vaulted ceilings, skylight, nook, marble counter tops and Viking range. The lower level includes a second kitchen, HDTV with surround sound and a circular slate patio with gas BBQ and built-in seating. A master suite of sumptuous proportions enjoys ocean views from three sides.
