About This Home
As of August 2020Beautiful custom built "Cottage Style" home completed in the year 2000. Never before on the market. The current owner tore down the old cottage and replaced it with this amazing home. Large lot with over 10,000 square feet of property this home boasts an open floor plan with large state of the art kitchen with dining room and breakfast counter. Spacious living room and master bedroom all with panoramic ocean views. Large wrap around ocean view decks also feature Catalina and beach views as well as charming gardens surrounding the home. This home is the ultimate privacy, as it sits below the street and is on the turn of Monterey Street, positioned into the canyon slightly so that it gets very little highway noise, a "One of a kind" location... Privacy wall and gate opens to the home's entry with a charming garden surround. Formal entry with wood floors throughout, two fireplaces, high vaulted ceilings, cozy den with fireplace and separate master bedroom and bath upstairs. Downstairs are two more bedrooms and large bath, one of the bedrooms is large enough to be a living room or large office with a kitchenette and a separate entry. The downstairs also boasts a private ocean view deck and ocean views from the bedrooms. There is a walking path down to the beach and the underground tunnel, if you are a walker it just takes minutes to reach the sand. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own one of the prime ocean view locations in Laguna Beach.
