Settled on a prime corner lot in the heart of Laguna Village, this home is just a few blocks from the very best of Laguna Beach and the coast. From the vibrant energy of downtown shops and local dining to the salt air of the many nearby beaches, everything that makes this coastal community iconic is just steps from your front door. Originally reimagined through a comprehensive remodel by Tim Nichol in 2004 and cherished by the current owner since 2010, the residence is defined by its comfortable coastal charm. A Dutch door with beveled glass welcomes you into a home that perfectly balances Laguna Cottage, Craftsman architecture, and modern refinements. Rich wood floors and a gorgeous stairway in the two-story entry, includes a hand-cut geometric leaded window that beautifully sets the stage for the entire home. The main level offers a European kitchen with elegant marble countertops, a living room anchored by a timeless brick fireplace, a sun-drenched dining room, and an entertainment room featuring beautiful custom built-ins. This level is crowned by soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, while divided-lite windows and multiple French doors infuse the interior with the verdant landscape. The aesthetic is warm, tactile, and inviting featuring rich architectural millwork and details that bring character and carefree comfort to every space. Completing the downstairs are two generous bedrooms and a full bathroom with classic mosaic tile flooring and a vintage clawfoot tub. The upper level is dedicated entirely to a spacious primary suite featuring genuine ocean views, fine shiplap paneling, a fireplace, a large walk-in closet, and two private decks that offer elevated perspectives of the ocean and the Village - perfect for watching the sunset. The primary bathroom is thoughtfully designed with dual sinks, a large soaking tub, a separate shower, and a private water closet. Outside, the property is ensconced by Ann Christoph's timeless native landscape design, creating a private, verdant haven. Multiple private seating areas offer the ideal backdrop for morning coffee or hosting a group of sandy friends straight off the beach. This home captures the charm and rich history of the Village while offering a carefree coastal lifestyle.
