Perched above the heart of Laguna Beach, this one-of-a-kind coastal cottage delivers the kind of views and lifestyle that are almost impossible to find in one property. From Catalina Island and Rancho Palos Verdes to the white water, coastline, and downtown city lights, the outlook is expansive, ever-changing, and truly spectacular. And yet, unlike many of Lagunas hillside view homes, you are still connected to town. Set on a rare street-to-street lot of more than 8,600 square feet, private steps lead directly down to Thalia Street, putting the beach, village, restaurants, galleries, shops, and coffee spots just a few blocks away. Spend the morning watching the ocean from your deck, walk down for lunch or a swim, then come home to sunset over Catalina and an evening soak in the outdoor hot tuball without ever getting in the car. Inside, the three-bedroom, three-bath home has the timeless charm of a classic Laguna Beach cottage, with true craftsmanship and character throughout. Hardwood floors, open-beamed ceilings, paneled walls, a brick fireplace, period details, and abundant natural light create a warm and distinctive setting that feels authentic to Laguna. A remodeled kitchen opens to the main living areas, while AC adds modern-day comfort. The expansive ocean-view deck creates an effortless indoor-outdoor setting for entertaining, dining, or simply taking in the coastline. A detached casita with its own bath offers flexible space for guests, an office, gym, or studio, while a separate den, finished cellar, indoor laundry room, generous storage, and a two-car garage add Perched above the heart of Laguna Beach, this one-of-a-kind coastal cottage delivers the kind of views and lifestyle that are almost impossible to find in one property.

A truly special property, and a lifestyle that is exceptionally hard to replicate..
