Under contract but taking backup offers: An authentic, updated beach cottage that exudes charm and livability. Turnkey home or ocean getaway. The inviting brick patio, with plenty of room for a dining table, sitting area, and BBQ, leads into a classic 1927 cottage with high ceilings and a remodeled kitchen. Big counters and stainless appliances open to the breakfast bar and the great room. Perfect for chefs and entertaining, while enjoying the California indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Downstairs find three cozy bedrooms and a shower/bath. The upstairs bedroom suite opens to a spacious, two-bedroom floor with views, copious closets, and a master bathroom with a Jacuzzi-type tub. Perfect for a couple with different sleeping habits. Full air-conditioning, (a rarity in Laguna Beach) with separate up & down units. The wide, 2 car garage features cabinets and lots of extra storage space. You’ll find more storage in 2 attics. Only blocks from the world-famous Woods Cove Beach, the HIP district and downtown restaurants, shops, art galleries, etc. Quiet street that deadends at Glenneyre. (Most tourists don’t seem to know it’s there.) The architect measured the property at 1, 603 square feet but it lives much bigger. Here’s the statement from the current owner: “We bought this house as a beach cottage, but made this our full-time home where we raised our three kids: each had their own bedrooms, desks, dressers, and closets.” (Purchaser to verify square footage as that is not guaranteed.)
