Property Description
Offered for the first time since 1966, this single-level Emerald Bay residence presents a rare opportunity to own a legacy coastal property with extraordinary ocean views. Once owned by a Hollywood actress during Laguna Beach's storied creative era, the home offers timeless character, privacy, and an irreplaceable setting. Situated on an approximately 8,100-square-foot lot, the home spans just over 2,300 square feet with three bedrooms and a study, all on one level. Panoramic views extend over Emerald Bay's private beach to the Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island beyond, complemented by the sound of crashing waves. A large front courtyard and expansive ocean-view deck provide ideal spaces for entertaining and outdoor dining. The property is conveniently located just above a community stairway with direct beach access and only a few homes from the south gate for easy entry and exit.
With significant potential to remodel, expand, or build new, this is a rare opportunity to create the ultimate Emerald Bay beach retreat in one of Laguna Beach's most coveted communities.
