Description

SHORT SALE opportunity—without the typical headaches of a standard short sale! Perched atop one of Laguna Beach’s most iconic ocean-view bluffs, 802 Rembrandt Drive is an extraordinary Spanish Colonial Revival estate that seamlessly fuses timeless architectural character with modern luxuries. Capturing UNINTERRUPTED 180-degree views that sweep from Catalina Island to Palos Verdes and the shimmering LA skyline, this legacy property epitomizes coastal California living—refined, effortless, and steeped in beauty. Set on an oversized street-to-street lot, the estate enjoys a remarkable sense of privacy and scale. Inside, classic details—arched doorways, artisan ironwork, and hand-painted tile—blend gracefully with thoughtful updates including owned solar, central HVAC, and split-zone climate control. The main residence offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, while a detached 1-bedroom, 1-bath casita provides the perfect retreat for guests, a private office, or a creative studio. The chef’s kitchen is both functional and beautifully designed, complete with premium appliances and a charming pass-through window that opens to a secluded front patio featuring a built-in wood-fired pizza oven. Whether hosting intimate dinners or lively gatherings, this private outdoor courtyard sets the stage for warm and memorable moments. At the heart of the home, the open-plan living and dining areas flow effortlessly to a spacious rear balcony, blurring the line between indoors and out. Over 1,000 square feet of view terraces invite you to savor ocean breezes and vibrant sunsets year-round. The resort-caliber pool and spa deck lies just below a shaded loggia adorned with elegant tiled arches, surrounded by lush mature landscaping that provides both beauty and seclusion. A palapa-style cabana and built-in fire pit with curved seating complete the outdoor living experience—ideal for everything from lazy summer days to starlit coastal evenings.Located just above Laguna’s coveted Hip District, the home’s private lower gate allows for walkable access to world-class beaches, acclaimed restaurants, galleries, and the Surf & Sand Resort. Homes with this rare combination of architectural pedigree, panoramic views, expansive lot size, and walkable village location seldom become available. A once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of Laguna Beach’s signature estates.
