About This Home

Live in Emerald Bay—Laguna Beach’s most exclusive gated beachside community. This rare opportunity offers the perfect canvas to build your family's custom dream home in a location that embodies privacy, prestige, and panoramic ocean views.

Situated on one of the most tranquil and child-friendly one-way streets in the community, the property boasts a desirable orientation that captures coastal breezes and sunlight throughout the day. The existing 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home provides comfortable living with multiple private outdoor spaces—all showcasing views of the Pacific. However, the true value lies in the long-term potential to rebuild and create a legacy home tailored to your vision.

Emerald Bay is more than just a neighborhood—it’s a lifestyle. As a resident, you’ll enjoy access to a private white sand beach, an oceanfront pool complex, six tennis courts, sand volleyball, basketball courts, a clubhouse, lush parks, and year-round community events and children's programs. The Mediterranean-style charm and unmatched security of this gated enclave offer a sense of tranquility rarely found on the California coast.

Just a short stroll from Palm Tree Circle and moments away from Laguna Beach’s world-class dining, art galleries, and surf, this is a generational opportunity to create lasting memories and long-term value in one of Southern California’s most sought-after coastal communities.

Emerald Bay is where luxury meets lifestyle—and your dream home awaits.
