About This Home

As of November 2020

"Seastones” is one of Laguna Beach’s most charming oceanfront properties. Located in the very best block of Woods Cove, this impeccably kept seaside cottage is one of four homes above this scenic beach. Resting on one and one-half lots, the property has extensive ocean frontage that affords every room restful ocean views. The circa 1916 shingle-style cottage is spacious and inviting. Though updated, it still retains all of its period charm and details including hardwood floors, a covered oceanfront veranda, and the original stone fireplace with a heart shaped rock inset into the middle. Its large rooms are perfect for entertaining and open to ocean terraces and a veranda on three different levels. Guests arrive through a completely private garden courtyard, with a swimming pool surrounded by high stone walls set in place decades ago. The privacy of the setting is extraordinary, with no neighboring properties looking into the house or gardens. Private gated steps lead to the beach below. The sunny master suite has walls of windows, a sitting room, and a beautiful bath. Located between the Montage and Surf & Sand (and within walking distance of both), the ideal location is quite easily accessible to all of Laguna’s most desirable shops and restaurants.
