About This Home

As of December 2019

Floating above picturesque Laguna Beach, the awe-inspiring views of Catalina Island, the azure blue Pacific Ocean, white water waves and canyon views from this coastal paradise will take your breath away. Views stretch from Laguna Beach to Palos Verdes. The premier, front row location maximizes the opportunity to capture all the views throughout the generous living spaces and perfectly situated decks.
Enter the home through the private courtyard and open the front door to a thoughtfully designed sanctuary for entertaining and coastal living with a gorgeous vaulted ceiling, skylight and open living and dining room floor plan. Day time light glints off the ocean horizon and evening lights sparkle from the surrounding hills, displayed in stunning fashion from spacious windows in the dual living rooms and master suites. Beautifully done, the 2-bedroom design includes two full baths plus two half-bathrooms. MAIN FLOOR MASTER
Laguna Sur, in which this home resides, is a resort-like guard gated community offering pools, tennis courts and access to some of the best ocean view hiking anywhere. The home’s prime location is within close proximity to the Gold Coast’s desirable beaches – 1000 Steps, Aliso Beach and West Street Beach, resort hotels Ritz Carlton, Monarch Beach Resort and the Montage, as well as the area’s notable eateries, boutique shopping, and cultural entertainment venues.
