About This Home

As of May 2025

Perched above the crashing waves with commanding views stretching from Three Arch Bay to Palos Verdes, 31703 Seacliff is a rare opportunity to own a piece of coastal history in one of Laguna’s most coveted enclaves. This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom charming seaside bungalow has evolved through thoughtful updates, including a stunning third-story addition by renowned architect Carl Iverson in 1990. The home offers approx. 2,424 square feet of interior living space on a 4,436 square foot lot, with a versatile layout ideal for multi-generational living or guests. The lower-level apartment enjoys its own private exterior entrance and lives like a single-level residence—perfect for visiting family or added privacy. Upstairs, a full-floor primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, complete with a cozy fireplace, sitting area, spacious bath with walk-in shower and in-unit laundry, and an oversized private deck. Both decks are approximately 950 square feet that captures panoramic coastal vistas. Mitered windows frame scenes of the sea, the cliffs, and beyond. Additional highlights include private access to Table Rock Beach, ample storage beneath the home near the apartment, and a unique sense of place that only this location can offer. This one-of-a-kind residence captures the essence of Laguna Beach living—timeless, artistic, and intimately connected to the sea.
