Dreamy Three Arch Bay beach cottage--READY FOR SUMMER! This enchanting sun-filled & naturally bright single-level residence is just steps away to the private beaches & all of the amenities this special community has to offer. Charming front brick courtyard welcomes you home. Spacious outdoor living spaces, lovely gardens + waterfall fountain are perfect for outdoor entertainment/dining with an ocean view. The open living room has a romantic wood-burning F/P. 2 large bedrooms (en suite master) + a separate den or office (could be 3rd bedroom if needed). Lovingly cared for cottage in a very quiet location. Built-in cabinets & shelves throughout + storage basement + A/C. Fabulous community/holiday events throughout the year. 24-hour guard/gated. Great opportunity to own & experience the lifestyle of Laguna Beach! 1st time on the market in 40 years.
