About This Home

Among the finest unobstructed ocean views available in Laguna Beach, this rare Laguna Beach property presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to create a dream coastal residence in one of Southern California's most coveted communities. Perfectly positioned to capture breathtaking Pacific Ocean views from the main living area and primary suite, this nearly 2,400 square foot home offers a front-row seat to the ever-changing beauty of the coastline. Watch waves break along the shore, enjoy spectacular sunsets, and experience the unmistakable serenity that comes with true oceanfront living—without sacrificing the privacy and charm of a hillside neighborhood. The existing residence is ready for transformation, offering a unique opportunity for those with vision to reimagine, renovate, or create a custom home perfectly suited to its exceptional setting. The foundation is already in place: an extraordinary location, an unobstructed coastal view, and the rare convenience of a detached two-car garage with driveway parking. Imagine opening the windows to welcome the ocean breeze, enjoying evenings beneath the glow of coastal sunsets, and unwinding on the bedroom balcony while city lights sparkle in the distance. The home's connection to the surrounding landscape, the sound of nearby waves, and the familiar charm of Laguna Beach create an atmosphere that is impossible to duplicate. Located in lower Mystic Hills, this property offers an ideal blend of tranquility and accessibility. Walk or bike to Laguna Village, Broadway Street, world-class dining, boutique shopping, art galleries, beaches, and the iconic coastal lifestyle that has made Laguna Beach one of California's most desirable destinations. Whether creating a private coastal retreat, a full-time residence, or a family getaway for generations to come, this is a rare opportunity to transform a remarkable piece of Laguna Beach into something truly extraordinary.
