About This Home

As of May 2024

Originally built in 1981 but completely remodeled in 1998, this stunning modern masterpiece is located a short distance from the beach in coveted North Laguna. The home was sited and built to take full advantage of the panoramic ocean views of the coastline and the city lights of Laguna Beach. With approximately 3,450 square feet of living space the open floor plan encourages both casual living and formal entertaining. The upper level of the home includes a living room with inlaid wood floors, fireplace and view deck, dining room, gourmet kitchen, and comfortable family room that opens onto a private rear yard with an in-ground spa. The sumptuous and expansive master suite includes a private deck with beautiful views of Emerald Bay, a fireplace, and two large closets. The luxurious master bath features dual vanities, a sunken tub, and a separate oversized shower all artfully finished with beautiful hardwoods and natural stone. The inviting kitchen will be treasured by the most discriminating chef and is highlighted by custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and built-in appliances. The interior and exterior of this immaculate home have been perfectly maintained by meticulous owners who have upgraded the home with exacting attention to every detail.
