Anchored by a classic Laguna ocean view cottage, the triplex at 252 and 254 Chiquita Street offers a rare blend of views, beach and village proximity, wonderful outdoor space, and a special dash of appealing charm. The unit mix is superb - the two bedroom front vintage cottage with coastal views, a spacious two bedroom rear upper with panoramic ocean and prized Catalina Island views, and a one bedroom rear lower unit with incredible rentability. The configuration provides flexibility for an owner-user, a vacation home with passive income, and even delivers a'better-than-most' Laguna Beach cap rate for an investor. Two alley garages, an alley parking apron, and an off-street parking pad in the front provide the critical parking usually lacking in beach-close properties. Recent improvements by the current owner have improved amenities and rentability. 252 Chiquita is a special offering in a prized Laguna Beach locale!
