Description

Tucked away on a tranquil cul-de-sac in South Laguna Village, just moments from the iconic Thousand Steps Beach, this property balances sophisticated 21st-century upgrades with the timeless allure of its 1930s origins. Artfully reimagined to honor its original character, the curated material selection includes white oak, marble, and book-matched quartz, transforming this three-bedroom cottage into a sophisticated coastal retreat. Beneath the vaulted, wood-beamed ceilings of the upper, main living level, the spaces flow effortlessly toward the expansive deck ensuring the ocean remains a constant, luminous backdrop against the home’s historic bones. Elevated to capture panoramic views of the Pacific and the silhouette of Catalina Island, this outdoor sanctuary is a perfect setting for al fresco entertaining or quiet enjoyment. Adjacent to the ocean-facing living area with a fireplace, the designer kitchen features white inset cabinetry, professional Thermador appliances, and a seamless pass-through window that dissolves the boundary between the indoors and the elements. Also on this floor, the tranquil primary suite offers a dedicated space for a private lounge or office, and an adjacent bathroom full of light. An additional living area greets all visitors on the lower level, where either of the ample secondary bedrooms, including one with access to the outside, can function as sleeping quarters or a home office. The exterior is equally distinguished, with a custom mahogany garage door and mature landscaping to accentuate the property’s timeless cottage appeal.
