Laguna Beach

Laguna Beach oceanfront Mark Singer A.I.A.-designed residence with expansive ocean, Catalina Island and sunset views set atop a bluff in Victoria Beach - one of the most desirable enclaves of Southern California. Sited with intention to fully capture the endless Pacific vistas, this contemporary five-bedroom offering spans approximately 5,342 square feet of living area and multiple outdoor spaces. Down the floating staircase just beyond the private entryway lies a dramatic double-height great room framed by a wall of windows. Anchored by a standalone fireplace, a sitting area, a large dining section, a discreet wet bar, and the home’s kitchen with super-grade finishes as well as an oversized island create a harmonious entertaining space. Positioned to capture ocean views from every angle, this sun-drenched level extends to the outdoors via a courtyard patio on one end and a spacious terrace on the other. A bedroom currently used as an office completes this floor. The upper level is comprised exclusively of the water-facing owner’s quarters, with the primary ocean-view bedroom, bathroom, balcony, and dual closets occupying its entirety for ultimate privacy. The lower portion of this residence presents a secondary gathering area with a wet bar and a large oceanfront patio with a fire pit. Serene ocean vistas can be enjoyed from two of the three guest bedrooms on this level. Featuring the highest-end elements, including steel, poured concrete, and natural stone, this dramatic modern home features an elevator, smart home automation, and a two-car garage. An iconic yet convenient location within Laguna Beach with the city’s restaurants, golf courses, boutiques, world-class resorts and beaches just a stone’s throw away.

Nestled among some of the most valuable oceanfront estates in California, this prime bluff-top gated property combines an understated beach elegance with a bit of classic Laguna artistry. Originally conceived by one renowned California architect (Fred Briggs, recognized as an Architectural Digest Top 100 architect) and more recently updated and expanded by another (Christopher Light), ‘Greenstone by the Sea’ is a masterful combination of disappearing glass, vast ocean expanses, and tremendous outdoor decks and terraces. The vast view frontage and a comfortable, eminently livable open floorplan provides ocean views and outdoor terraces and decks from almost every room in the house – a rarity for oceanfront homes. A gated drive and motor court lead to an oversized three car garage entering on the primary mid living level. A stunning two story glass-enclosed staircase and an artisan-crafted beveled glass door highlight views through the home to the ocean beyond as you approach the entry. The living level, finished in a soothing combination of luxurious textures and colors, highlight the oceanfront location. Dining and a bespoke kitchen with all top-line appliances are each distinct from the living area but visually open presenting an incredible ocean view sweep from this level. The lower-level hosts four of the bedrooms including the primary suite - a generously sized retreat unto itself. With walls of glass and phenomenal design detail, the results of the architectural pedigree are on full display. The fifth bedroom, along with an office or gym space, spa bath with steam and sauna, and a ‘sky terrace’ finish the upper level of the home, with separation from the remainder of the living spaces (for a home office, or living quarters nicely set apart). As remarkable as the interior spaces are - it is the terraces and view decks that take the estate to another level. With space for large scale entertaining, the outdoor spaces also lend themselves to very intimate vignettes – coffee off the kitchen, a private area off the primary suite, a wonderful fire feature that invites you to enjoy a slow sunset. Natural landscape from the edge of the terraces to the blufftop provides a beautiful frame for the Pacific view. A substantial estate, usable as a primary residence or a secondary home with many features to facilitate part-time residency. Rarely does an oceanfront estate with such an architectural provenance, stunning locale, and gracious livability come to market.

Coastal southern California has its share of special homes in special places. Rarely, though, does a property have the ability to transport and transform, to foster the sense of wonder that can add joy to everyday living. 400 Ashton Drive in Laguna Beach, situated on an estate-sized parcel of land above the sands of Victoria Beach, sparks the kind of joy that is only possible when a perfect beach-close location combines with a home that delights at every turn. Entering up the curving drive reveals terraced gardens and a marvelous towering home. Once the home of a renowned local artist, the grounds and the home itself have been rejuvenated and reinvented across years by the current owners. A stately rustic outdoor fireplace and living room invites conversation while the terrace above holds a substantial outdoor kitchen. The gardens beckon exploration – view terraces and quiet spots abound, a maturing fruit tree grove and installations by local artists share the spaces in a unique alchemy. But, it is once you get to the home itself where the full magic is revealed. The panoramic Pacific Ocean and coastline views are stunning, and the house is like no other – carefully preserving the architectural nods to its history, the owners have updated the home into a coastal masterpiece. The main level is wrapped with glass and expansive ocean view decks, and is finished magnificently… hitting the right mix of organic design and luxury. A main level bedroom opens to the rear gardens including raised planter boxes and, of course, a producing chicken coop. With a nod to the home’s history, elements of the old home have been repurposed inside and out. The vast ocean views are not lost on the lower bedroom level. From the private primary suite, complete with wet room and copper soaking tub, to the guest suites, media area and wrap-around covered decks, the lower level of the home delivers the same ‘wow’ factor as the main level. Though the home feels worlds apart from any neighbors, it is just three blocks from the sand. Gated at the street, the estate has abundant parking behind the gate and off-street outside the gate. 400 Ashton Drive is a property to be savored and explored, a property that defies duplication in coastal real estate.
