About 31626 Virginia Way
Welcome to 31626 Virginia Way, a beautifully remodeled historic ocean-view cottage in Laguna Beach that perfectly blends timeless charm with modern luxury. Completely reimagined by renowned designer and contractor Julie Laughton in 2018, this 1,658 SF home features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a dedicated office space. The extensive remodel expanded the primary suite, including a custom bathroom and walk-in closet, while the chef’s kitchen was redesigned with GE Café appliances, solid wood cabinetry, natural stone countertops, and a walk-in pantry. The guest bathroom showcases vintage subway tile with tasteful Carrara marble accents. Additional upgrades include hardwood flooring and all-new wainscot, updated windows and doors, and central heating and air conditioning. Freshly painted in 2024, the home is move-in ready with a crisp, modern feel that can include all furnishings. Perched just steps from Table Rock beach, this charming cottage offers stunning views of the ocean and the lush community garden from the first floor, while the second-floor bedroom and office open onto a full west-facing deck, showcasing views extending all the way to Catalina Island.
