About This Home

As of August 2022

This meticulously maintained 1926 Craftsman home is the ultimate definition of cottage charm. Located in the highly desirable "Tree streets" of North Laguna, the home is close to downtown and is just two short blocks to the beach, restaurants, famous Heisler Park and Laguna's Gallery Row. The quaint front porch swing and sitting area makes for a warm and inviting welcome. The custom Dutch doors and multiple windows in each room, many of which are original, bring the beauty of the stunning landscaping right inside and add to the warmth and open feeling throughout the home. The hardwood floors throughout, the double hung windows, fireplace and mantel, interior doors and hardware are all original and help create this designer's dream interior. A large formal dining room with the original custom cabinetry is entered through a beautiful arched doorway. Each of the two bedrooms has it's own remodeled bathroom, while the kitchen boasts a charming area for informal dining and conversation, lots of storage and a hidden full sized washer and dryer. The high roof lines of the home creates the advantage of an easily accessible huge attic with very high ceilings for storage or a possible extra room. The charm of the interior is only exceeded by what's outside. While all the mature plantings and multiple fruit trees were retained, in 2019 the exterior of the entire property was recreated and transformed by renowned landscapers Roger's Gardens to create both a new front yard and an incredible back yard that is perfect for both family relaxation and grand entertaining. The entertainment areas in the back yard feature a spacious two level Flagstone patio and fully equipped cooking island, complete with a Wolf rotisserie grill barbeque and a two drawer Sub Zero refrigerator. Also located in the rear yard separate from the main house is a charming family retreat or extra space for guests or in-laws. This lot is zoned R-2 and will legally accommodate a second dwelling unit. The landscape and patios have been designed to accommodate the second unit without interfering with the beauty and integrity of the landscape design.
