Set on an approximately 9,180-square-foot lot with a wide frontage that commands the coastline, the property offers the rare combination of an established residence and the canvas to reimagine it entirely, a prospect that rarely presents itself at this location or caliber. The existing residence encompasses approximately 2,633 square feet across two separate structures, offering five bedrooms and five bathrooms in total. The main residence features three bedrooms and three bathrooms, while a detached guest residence offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, each capturing the coastal character and effortless elegance that defines life in Woods Cove. The property carries a sense of place that is increasingly rare on the California coast, where the ocean is not a backdrop but the defining force of everyday life. The setting itself is the defining asset.

Whether one envisions a thoughtful restoration or an entirely reimagined estate, the bones of this offering, the lot, the location, the views, represent the foundation upon which something truly exceptional can be created. Situated along one of Laguna Beach’s most prized coastal stretches, and moments from celebrated dining, boutiques, galleries, and the iconic Montage Laguna Beach, the property offers the rare privilege of oceanfront living at its most refined, where privacy, beauty, and the rhythms of the Pacific converge. Opportunities of this nature, oceanfront, wide frontage, with the freedom to envision, are among the rarest offerings on the California coast.
