Perched above South Laguna's coastline just moments from Thousand Steps Beach, this custom Craftsman-style home embraces the best of Southern California coastal living. Designed to take full advantage of its elevated setting, the upper level features panoramic ocean views, refreshing coastal breezes, and 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. Built in 2000 and spanning approximately 2,490 square feet across three levels, the home offers three bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a thoughtful floor plan designed for everyday living and entertaining. A flexible bonus room with custom built-ins is currently enjoyed as a media room and offers a dedicated space for movie nights. The kitchen features maple cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a Viking oven with six-burner gas range, and opens seamlessly to the dining area and living room. A fireplace with granite surround adds warmth and character to the main living area. The primary suite offers private outdoor access, a walk-in closet, and a spacious bath with a walk-in shower and jetted tub, complete with an ocean-view window above. Multiple patios, sandstone decks, and mature landscaping create inviting outdoor spaces throughout the property, while the fully fenced grassy backyard provides a rare expanse of usable outdoor space. 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. Additional highlights include an oversized driveway with parking for five cars in addition to the attached two-car garage, along with many other well-considered details throughout the home. 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.
