About 31847 8th Ave
Experience luxury paired with the unmistakable Laguna Beach charm of a bygone era in this meticulously reimagined cottage. Constructed in 1938 and now a chic sanctuary, the home boasts breathtaking ocean, Catalina Island views, and tasteful modern updates. Mullioned windows fill all rooms with light, while the thoughtful yet practical layout offers privacy. The main level features an exceptionally well-equipped kitchen with fully integrated Fisher & Paykel and SubZero appliances, a stone-topped peninsula, bespoke cabinetry, and a brass fixture atop the farmhouse sink. An adjoining living-dining space is anchored by a fireplace with custom millwork, including a reading nook, setting an elegant tone. On the upper level, the primary retreat is all charm, with a balcony, built-in wardrobes, a cathedral ceiling, and an en-suite bathroom. A bedroom on this floor could easily function as a home office, a gym, or a massive walk-in closet. An expansive ocean-facing rooftop deck features sitting areas and a fire pit, creating a space for year-round enjoyment. The remaining secondary bedrooms on the lowest level afford privacy, with one opening onto a patio. This cottage is enveloped by mature landscaping: the meticulously maintained hedges and olive trees create a sophisticated setting. Nestled within a quiet South Laguna enclave, this refined haven is mere minutes from dining destinations and the area’s famed beaches.
