Property is move-in ready.
While built in 1973, the property is in move-in ready condition due to meticulous maintenance and significant recent upgrades. Key systems are excellent, including a new roof (2022), newer HVAC, and full PEX repiping. The interior features fresh paint and brand-new carpeting. Kitchen and baths are functional and well-maintained, though they reflect a slightly older renovation style (approx. 10-15 years).
Elementary School: John Malcom Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Thurston Middle School (9/10). High School: Laguna Beach High School (9/10).
The property boasts rare, unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean, Salt Creek Beach, and the Monarch Beach Golf Links from nearly every room, providing a premium coastal experience.
Extensive recent upgrades including a new clay tile roof (2022), full PEX repiping, and a newer HVAC system provide peace of mind and reduce immediate maintenance costs for the buyer.
While meticulously maintained, the 1973-era architecture and original floor plan may require a significant additional investment to meet modern luxury design standards.
The $662 monthly association fee is a substantial recurring expense that may impact the overall affordability and appeal for some prospective buyers.
