Exquisitely finished ocean-view home in the coveted Tree Streets of North Laguna Beach. This rare location combines the charm of a true neighborhood with wide, tree-lined streets—something not often found in Laguna Beach—along with convenient access to downtown, Main Beach, Heisler Park, and all the coastal lifestyle has to offer. Inside, the light-filled modern Craftsman design showcases vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and multiple skylights, creating a bright and airy atmosphere throughout. Enter through a fully fenced, grassy front yard and a welcoming Dutch door into the expansive great room. Here, the kitchen takes center stage with stunning marble surfaces and wide-plank natural wood floors that strike the perfect balance between clean modern lines and warm, inviting comfort. Three sets of French doors seamlessly extend the living space onto a spacious outdoor deck, featuring a built-in grilling island and generous room for dining, lounging, and entertaining under the ocean breeze. Upstairs, the elevated primary suite offers a luxurious retreat with a spa-inspired bath adorned in elegant stonework and breathtaking ocean views from both the bed and the private balcony. A second primary suite is conveniently located on the main floor, offering flexibility for guests or multi-generational living. The fourth bedroom features its own private entrance and kitchenette—ideal as a guest suite, in-law quarters, or income-producing rental. In back, you'll find a few other highlights: a two car garage, a carport, outdoor shower and vegetable garden All of this is set in one of Laguna Beach’s most desirable neighborhoods—just steps from world-famous beaches, award-winning restaurants, boutique shopping, and a short drive to Newport Coast, Corona del Mar, Newport Beach, John Wayne Airport (SNA) and premier shopping at Fashion Island or South Coast Plaza.
