About This Home

As of August 2024

Live the coastal lifestyle that is iconic to Laguna Beach in this pristine, ocean view luxury home, located in the Hip District in walking distance to the Moss Cove beach access, a secret hidden cove that is preferred by locals searching for solitude. Set a short drive away from the galleries, restaurants and nightlife options that have made Laguna Beach a world-renowned destination, the home includes a beautifully renovated, designer-quality interior with new flooring and a sleek modern kitchen with quartz counters. New French doors allow for captivating ocean views from the living area as well as the primary bedroom. The private balcony is certain to be a favorite, as it is a relaxing place to feel the ocean breeze and watch the sunset. An elegant open living area refined with superior attention to detail presents a welcome retreat after a long day spent enjoying what Laguna has to offer. Features include a statement-making TV wall with an electric fireplace and a built-in 85” flat screen from Sony. The adjacent, newly renovated half bath and the open kitchen are equally appealing. The half bath has a new vanity and a stone backsplash likely to remind the viewer of a favorite artwork in one of the nearby galleries; the kitchen includes a marble backsplash and European custom cabinetry. New crown moldings, new baseboards and new lights, fans and hardware make this a perfect investment property, full-time residence or vacation home. Other features include shared bike/surfboard storage, a gated assigned parking space, access to a shared laundry room, and a courtyard grilling area for hosting BBQs and/or meeting the neighbors. All the furniture is available for purchase, making this upper level home completely turnkey. With a convenient yet quiet location, along with the chance to walk to Moss Cove, which has new stairs and walkways, this ultra-sophisticated coastal home is the opportunity of a lifetime.
