A bedroom with an adjacent bathroom completes the main level.

Condition Rating
Good

Built in 2005, this 19-year-old property falls within the 'Good' category's age range. The kitchen features well-maintained wood cabinetry, stone counters, and stainless steel appliances that are functional and presentable, though not cutting-edge modern. Bathrooms are clean with marble accents and functional fixtures. Flooring is consistently well-maintained hardwood throughout. While the property is move-in ready with minimal wear and tear, the lack of central air conditioning and the absence of recent comprehensive renovations prevent it from achieving an 'Excellent' rating, as some interior elements, while in good condition, reflect the home's original build era rather than a fully updated aesthetic.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 14400, living area = 3300.
Great Schools: Elementary School: El Morro Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Thurston Middle School (9/10). High School: Laguna Beach High School (9/10).
Prime Location: Strategically located just minutes from Laguna Beach's famous Victoria Beach and the Montage resort, offering both seclusion and convenient access to desirable coastal amenities and easy access to Dana Point.
Panoramic Ocean Views: The property is expertly positioned to maximize ocean views from multiple vantage points, including the living room, primary suite balcony, and a wraparound deck, ideal for enjoying sunsets.
Privacy and Exclusivity: Situated behind a private gate, the home offers enhanced privacy and a sense of exclusivity within the desirable Portafina subdivision.
Spacious & Versatile Layout: Boasting approximately 3,300 square feet, the home features a functional layout with 4 bedrooms plus a flexible loft-style den, a large kitchen with an eat-in island, and multiple gathering spaces.
Top-Rated Schools: The property is zoned for highly-rated public schools (all rated 9), making it an attractive option for families.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant comfort drawback during warmer periods, especially for a luxury residence.
Absence of Luxury Outdoor Amenities: Despite a generous 14,400 sqft lot, there is no mention of a pool, spa, or other high-end outdoor entertaining features beyond the deck, which might be expected for a property of this caliber and price point in Laguna Beach.
Potential for Dated Interiors: Built in 2005, and while the kitchen features stone counters, the description does not indicate comprehensive recent renovations throughout, suggesting some areas may retain original finishes that could appear dated to modern luxury buyers.
