About this home

A Seacliff Masterpiece within the Seacliff private community | Nearly Oceanfront with Private Beach Access - four years to design and remodel- Architectural brilliance meets coastal elegance Welcome to one of the most breathtaking and thoughtfully designed homes along the Laguna Beach coastline. Located in the coveted Seacliff enclave, this nearly oceanfront gem is a refined reimagining of a classic Laguna Beach Craftsman Cottage—where timeless style meets modern luxury. Just beyond a private entry gate, a stunning outdoor living space blends seamlessly with the interior, creating the perfect setting for alfresco dining, morning coffee, or sunset cocktails with the Pacific as your backdrop. Perched on an elevated lot, the home offers unobstructed panoramic views from Three Arch Bay to Catalina Island. With direct deeded beach access just 30 feet from your front door, the ocean is truly at your feet. Daily sunsets, rolling waves, and ocean views from nearly every room bring coastal living to life. The main level is designed for entertaining, featuring a spacious living room, dining area, and open-concept chef’s kitchen—all capturing expansive ocean views. The kitchen includes Bertazzoni appliances, Blanco sinks, and imported Dekton countertops, with a walk-in pantry, wine fridge, and hidden laundry area nearby. A generous guest suite with a spa-style bath, walk-in closet, and private patio access sits on this level, along with a chic powder room. Upstairs, the entire floor is devoted to the stunning primary suite—an indoor-outdoor sanctuary with walls of glass, a private ocean-view deck with Spa, fireplace, wet bar, and a luxurious bath with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. A second deck offers the perfect spot to relax under the stars. Additional features include a rare side-by-side three-car garage with EV wiring, rich sapele mahogany woodwork, wide-plank white oak floors, hand-laid dry stack stonework, copper gutters, smart home automation, and custom designer finishes throughout. Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac, yet minutes from Laguna’s best dining, beaches, and boutiques—this Seacliff stunner isn’t just a home, it’s a legacy.
