About this home

Commanding breathtaking panoramas of the Pacific Ocean from nearly every vantage point, this residence seamlessly integrates contemporary, sophisticated interiors with the quintessential outdoor coastal living. Recently reimagined with meticulous attention to detail, the floor plan spans just over 2,800 square feet, offering two bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms. The richly layered finishes create an elevated living environment, with imported Turkish stone, reclaimed wood-plank flooring, handcrafted millwork, and bespoke lighting celebrating craftsmanship throughout. Accessed from the street level via a custom glass elevator, the principal living area features stunning ocean vistas, a main sitting section with a fireplace, and the home’s dining portion set against a picture window. A Dutch door connects this space with one of the numerous outdoor areas. Anchored by a stone-top island, the open-concept kitchen offers every high-end amenity, from bespoke cabinetry, a slab backsplash, and an integrated high-end appliance package inclusive of a professional-grade six burner Wolf range with double ovens and a griddle to a farmhouse sink. Clad in a muted palette, the rear living space on this floor is a quiet retreat that leads onto the backyard: a lush sanctuary with a pool, sitting area, and fountains - truly an oasis in the city. A secondary bedroom with an adjacent bathroom and a generously sized walk-in closet round out this level of the home. Perched atop the residence, the primary suite is a statement of its own. Offering textural depth, its wood-paneled ceiling melds with luxurious wallpaper and contemporary lines of the accordion doors, which span the entire ocean-facing wall of the room, leading onto the private terrace. The ensuite bathroom with double vanities and marble-sheathed shower completes the topmost floor. No surface of this home was untouched during its renovation, and notable highlights include custom lighting, a whole-house audio system, ample garage space, and high-grade, non-flammable material throughout. The combination of enlivened interiors, breathtaking views, and a prime location of this residence is simply irreproducible.

Prime Coastal Location & Unique Access: Situated in the highly desirable Woods Cove area of Laguna Beach, offering quintessential coastal living and unique street-level access via a custom glass elevator.

Cons

Limited Bedroom Count: With only two bedrooms for a 2,826 sqft luxury residence, it may not meet the needs of larger families or buyers expecting more guest accommodations at this price point.
Modest Lot Size: The 4,250 sqft lot is relatively small for a luxury property, potentially limiting expansive outdoor living space beyond the immediate backyard oasis.
Listed Above Estimated Market Value: The current list price of $8.995 million is approximately 8% higher than the property's estimated market value of $8.23 million, suggesting potential overpricing.
