Just moments from Thousand Steps Beach, this custom Craftsman-style home is perched above South Laguna's coastline, offering one of the most compelling settings on the market; panoramic ocean views, coastal breezes, and the kind of relaxed indoor-outdoor living that defines the best of Southern California.
The upper level was designed to make the most of its elevated position, with an open great room that flows effortlessly onto expansive sandstone decks. From Catalina Island and the Palos Verdes Peninsula to unforgettable sunsets and moonlit ocean views, the ever-changing Pacific becomes part of everyday life here . . . not just a backdrop, but a constant presence.
Built in 2000 and spanning approximately 2,490 square feet across three levels, the home offers three bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms in a layout designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A flexible bonus room with custom built-ins is currently enjoyed as a media room, offering a dedicated space for movie nights and downtime.
The kitchen features maple cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including a Viking oven with a six-burner gas range. It opens seamlessly to the dining area and living room, where a fireplace with a granite surround adds warmth and character to the main living space; making this an easy home to gather in, whether it's a quiet weeknight dinner or entertaining guests.
The primary suite offers private outdoor access, a walk-in closet, and a spacious bath complete with a walk-in shower and jetted tub, plus an ocean-view window above the tub, so even a soak becomes part of the view.
Multiple patios, sandstone decks, and mature landscaping create inviting outdoor spaces throughout the property, while a fully fenced, grassy backyard offers a rare expanse of usable outdoor space in this coastal setting; ideal for pets, play, or simply stretching out in the sun.
Thoughtful upgrades throughout the home include a low-maintenance copper roof and rain gutters, Hardie fiber cement siding, bamboo flooring, and a newer tankless water heater. Practical touches like an oversized driveway with parking for five cars, in addition to the attached two-car garage, round out a home that's as functional as it is beautiful.
Located mere steps from Laguna's renowned coastline, restaurants, and trolley stops, this home offers the opportunity to experience the relaxed coastal lifestyle that makes South Laguna so special, all while enjoying the quiet, elevated privacy of its hillside setting.
This is coastal living at its best: panoramic views, thoughtful design, and a location that puts you close to everything without ever feeling like it.
