288 Chiquita St, Laguna Beach, CA 92651

Don't just dream about a Laguna cottage-live there. A remodeled classic beach house, sits within a short distance from beaches and downtown, yet just far enough away to avoid the noise and crowds. To the north (if you have to commute) Newport Beach is just six miles away. Close your eyes and you'll hear the surf from the master suite of this inviting, clean lined 2 bedroom 2ba home. Awake each morning to a stunning ocean view from your front deck that extends the entire width of the home and functions as a large,completely covered open air living room.At the back of the house a companion sun deck overlooks the full-sized, landscaped rear yard that has privacy and view of Catalina Island. Adorned with open beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, custom French doors, an intelligently upgraded kitchen, using Viking gas stove surrounded by limestone and wood counters and an ingenious laundry slyly hidden way in what appears to be an ordinary hall closet. Plenty of extra storage under the house is a plus, (just the place for surfboards or kayak) and highlights the fact that this is a residence that clearly more than the sum of its parts. The two car garage and large driveway are perfect for vising family or guests. So pack your swimsuit and sunscreen, bring your toothbrush and start living the California dream. Here's a tip: 4th of July fireworks, viewed from the back deck are the best seats in town!
