About This Home
As of October 2014Quintessential Laguna Beach cottage in highly-desirable lower Three Arch Bay. First time on the market in 40+ years, this bright, beautiful home retains the original charm and character from a bygone era. This exceptional beach cottage enjoys huge ocean and Catalina Island views, including waves crashing on famed Whale Rock, and is just steps away to the beach access and TAB amenities. One can even see Palos Verdes on a clear day. An adorable and inviting home that has been freshly painted throughout and features restored hardwood flooring, original paneled walls, built-in cabinetry and bookcases, wood-beamed ceilings, and an abundance of windows to take in the magnificent ocean vistas from the main rooms of the residence. There is also a rare opportunity to purchase the vacant lot next door (see MLS #LG14142308 for 66 South La Senda). Three Arch Bay is a guard-gated community with tennis, sports courts, clubhouse, park/playground and 2 private beaches. Truly vacation living every day!
