Moments from the renowned beaches and coves of North Laguna, this historic residence charms at first sight, blending Eastern Seaboard sophistication with California casual. A classic white picket fence, brick hardscape, and beautifully landscaped grounds surround the home and an open floor plan interior invites with a grand staircase at entry. The fully remodeled kitchen includes clean-concept shelving, breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances and adjacent pantry/utility space which opens to the formal dining room with living room beyond. Tastefully appointed with timeless architectural details, brick fireplace for cooler evenings, paned-glass windows and French doors, the living room leads to the front porch and yard. A first floor family room with wrap-around windows offers the perfect place for cozy, sunny mornings as a library, home office or fourth bedroom. Upstairs, three bedrooms include the master suite with fireplace, ocean views and sea breezes, and a private west-facing deck for sunset magic hour and July 4th fireworks. Rare in Laguna, a nearly 500-square-foot basement offers substantial space for storage, hobbies, and laundry. Outside, the expansive front and rear yards, side brick patio, and full-size porches are ideal for entertaining and relaxing alike with mature landscaping, grassy areas and plenty of space for summer barbecues. Bliss awaits at this Tree Street gem.
