About This Home
As of November 2024Step through the doors of 394 Pinecrest and be transported back to the golden days of Laguna Beach, where the coastal charm of yesteryear meets timeless mid-century design. Crafted by renowned modernist Knowlton Fernald, this home evokes an immediate sense of excitement and invites you to relive an era when Laguna was the secret hideaway of artists, dreamers, and visionaries.Perched above the iconic Laguna Beach coastline, this home offers postcard-perfect white water views stretching from the shores of Main Beach to the distant Dana Point Headlands, and every point and cove along the way. As you walk in, floor-to-ceiling glass walls allow natural light to flood the open-concept living space, blurring the line between indoors and the untamed beauty outside. You have your choice of three outdoor spaces—a shaded front patio, a side patio perfect for zen relaxation, and an expansive ocean-facing deck that wraps around the front of the home and is perfect for outdoor dining and hosted gatherings.Nestled in a private enclave, yet minutes from the heart of Laguna’s art galleries, beaches, and renowned restaurants, 394 Pinecrest offers not just a home but an experience—one where time seems to slow, and the magic of Laguna Beach’s storied past is ever-present.
