About This Home

As of November 2021

Nestled on one of the best blocks of one of the storied tree streets in North Laguna Beach, 430 Myrtle Street epitomizes gracious California beach living. The original 1928 cottage, expanded to a ‘just-right’ size, exudes a peaceful charm from the garden gate to the spectacularly large master suite. All on a single level, the home offers four bedrooms, a classic original living room with fireplace, formal dining room, kitchen with a sunny breakfast room, and an oversized family room with soaring vaulted ceilings. Expanded in more recent years with a nod to the home’s historic roots, the clever update results in an amazingly comfortable home with modern comforts. The gardens are as much a part of the living space as the house itself – beautifully integrated with courtyards and water features. An added bonus – as a registered historic structure the home offers significant Mills Act property tax savings that carry with the property. The location is prime – just blocks to the best beaches and shopping/galleries/restaurants of Laguna Beach. The street-to-alley parcel allows for a rear entry two car garage with a significant set-back in the front for gardens and patios. For those who aspire to have a comfortable, laid back Laguna Beach lifestyle, you’ve found your forever home.
