THIS 4,069-SQUARE-FOOT “ modern masterpiece ” sits on a half-acre lot , which is five times bigger than most in Laguna Beach , according to John Stanaland , owner of his eponymous John Stanaland Group , part of Villa Real Estate . The street-to-street lot offers extensive privacy from its cul-de-sac positioning , as well as two garages , unimpeded views from two balconies and the surrounding garden . The home also has a private guest suite complete with a kitchenette on the lower level , which could be used as an office , gym or theater .
“ It ’ s unique to have such privacy in Laguna — a lot of the homes sit a lot closer together ,” Stanaland says . “ This legacy estate feels like you have a section of cliff side all to yourself .”
The four-bedroom , six-bath hillside estate underwent a full remodel in 2015 , and features high ceilings , glass fireplaces , many windows and sliding glass doors to take full advantage of the expansive views . The three-story home features a spiral staircase and elevator , providing options for accessing the various levels , and the main living area extends onto an ocean-view terrace . The open-concept kitchen is highlighted by a center island , beautiful cabinetry and countertops as well as Miele stainless steel appliances .
“ The Laguna Beach housing market offers a rare opportunity to purchase a dream estate in a small , highly sought beach community ,” Stanaland says . “ Laguna is so highly sought that it will always hold its value and the demand remains to be very high .”
