About This Home

As of May 2022

Embracing a grand lifestyle is even better than you can imagine in this bright and contemporary residence, where panoramic ocean views are enjoyed from 4 levels of stylish indoor/outdoor living space. Unobstructed views of the ocean, coastline, sunsets and city lights are welcomed from a trio of decks that are accessed by French doors, and a private patio is perfect for entertaining. Extending approx 1,950 square feet, the 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home reveals a long driveway and 2-car garage with ample room for parking and storage on the 1st level; a 2nd story that is ideal as a bedroom or home office; a main level with living room, large dining room, and sleek kitchen with custom cabinetry, a built-in stainless steel refrigerator, and granite countertops with full backsplash; and an upper level reserved for the master suite, complete with dramatic open-beamed natural wood ceiling. Designer touches include skylights, high-grade carpeting, recessed art lighting, plantation shutters, a granite fireplace, and an interior laundry room. Pristine coves, sandy beaches including Victoria and Woods Cove, and cliff-top parks are within close distance, and the restaurants, shops and galleries of downtown Laguna Beach are all easily accessed from home.
