About this home
From its perch in Upper Victoria Beach, where Catalina Island and the Pacific unfold in full panorama, this fully reimagined residence captures the quiet drama of Laguna Beach coastal living. Framed by sweeping 180-degree views, this two-bedroom plus bonus room, two-bath home offers appx. 1,245 square feet of living space, where whitewashed beam ceilings, warm white oak, sculptural lighting, and expansive black-framed windows create a refined expression of modern coastal living. Custom lime wash walls, 10.5-inch wide-plank white oak floors, custom millwork, solid-core doors, tailored white oak trim, and linear ceiling lighting create a cohesive architectural language throughout. Alabaster chandelier and sconces add sculptural softness, balancing crisp lines with organic coastal texture. In the kitchen, custom white oak cabinetry, Bellagio quartzite leather countertops, Miele and Thermador built-in appliances, and an induction, all-electric layout deliver understated function and style. Spa-like baths continue the curated palette with white oak vanities, micro-cement walls, handmade Zellige tile, Kohler Purist fixtures, 3-way showers, and bidet toilets. Every major system and surface has been thoughtfully rebuilt. Outside, the home features a new spray-foam-insulated flat roof, full exterior flat stucco, Milgard black-frame thick-glass windows, new exterior finishes and detailing, refinished balcony waterproofing, and two white oak front doors with custom surround trim. Flexible by design, the third bedroom includes a built-in Murphy bed and sliding glass door framing direct panoramic ocean views, making it ideal as a bedroom, office, studio, or guest retreat. Additional storage not included in the stated square footage adds valuable utility, while the rare 2-car garage provides desirable convenience in this sought-after coastal enclave. With the gas line permanently removed, the residence is fully all-electric and supported by new plumbing, upgraded electrical infrastructure, Cat 6 wiring, 4-zone climate control, high-efficiency heat pump systems, a 10kW solar system, and two Enphase backup batteries. Combined with a complete insulation envelope, the home is energy-neutral and designed for efficiency, comfort, and functionality during outages. Just five blocks from Victoria Beach and moments from the Montage, village dining, galleries, coves, and the best of Laguna’s coastline, this design-forward ocean-view retreat captures elevated Laguna Beach living.
Upper Victoria Beach, located between Victoria Drive and the Pacific Coast Highway, is a coastal and residential Laguna Beach neighborhood with blufftop ocean views and a stair-stepped street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Victoria Drive corridor near the iconic Pirate Tower, where beach stairs, surf checks, and camera-ready viewpoints set the daily rhythm. Landmark homes lean into mid-century lines and contemporary rebuilds, with pockets of classic beach cottages tucked along the slopes. The Montage Laguna Beach grounds and coastal trails frame the south edge with manicured paths and lookout points. Moulton Meadows Park adds open fields and courts above the shoreline. The scene reads quiet and design-forward, with the ocean as the constant backdrop.

Residential Low Density Zone
This zone is intended for low-density, single-family residential areas, which will provide a suitable environment for family life for residents.

All new development in this zone shall be compatible with the immediate residential neighborhood with respect to scale, mass and height. The purpose of this zone is to allow low-profile, single-family residences that preserve existing public and private views and minimize building mass and bulk in a manner that is sensitive to their terrain and to environmental constraints.
