About This Home
Miles of glittering coastline and an uncompromised panorama of the Pacific unfold before this one-of-a-kind respite. Originally designed by J. Lamont Langworthy, the residence is an exceptional representation of his notable and resilient designs, beautifully balancing function with the natural surround. The remarkable four-bedroom (one currently fashioned as an office), three bath home, with its unique orientation and layout, offers an enhanced feeling of privacy, while a two-level ‘wall’ of glass and a ‘two-story’ open environment affords breathtaking views from nearly every living area. The property was recently refined to complement the home’s efficiency and distinctive architectural detail, including the addition of Lutron automation; installation of Fleetwood windows; new skylights, heating, piping, Azek decking and Viewrail system, roof and rain gutters; along with kitchen and bath renovations incorporating fine finishes and materials with designer fixtures and appliances. Further distinguishing this extraordinary offering – three ocean view terraces to entertain and enjoy the sights and sounds of this picturesque, sought-after location, as well as optimal proximity to regional amenities and the treasured lifestyle of Laguna Beach. The adjacent lot of approximately 3,485 square feet is included in the offering.
