Here you will find a charming ocean view beach cottage with a separate legal guest house located on the 400 block of the coveted “Tree Streets” in North Laguna. (1658 sq. ft. includes 1172' for the front house plus 486' for the back house). The first thing noticed is the natural light pouring through the high ceilings and abundant windows illuminating the welcoming space. Classic features include original and refinished hardwood floors, original casement windows, traditional board-and-batten walls, built-ins that are not only unique and useful, but with a personality that speaks of yesteryear. The living room is the heart of the home, anchored by a stone fireplace and a large picture window opening to the back yard. Behind the main cottage, accessible by the side yard or from the back alley, is a separate guest house with a bedroom, bath, kitchen, wood burning stove, and a sizeable ocean view deck. This property has many wonderful extras including a one-car garage for the front house plus a one-car garage for the back guest unit, and lots of storage for this era home. It’s perfect for California outdoor living due to abundant outdoor space, enclosed added flex space for an artist studio/office or workout (173.5' not permitted an not included in the total sq. ft. ), an outdoor shower and more. Too much to describe, this is a house you need to see! Please note, per City of Laguna Beach, there is no original building permit on file. Per City property file, a 1940 zoning map shows a single family and a single family dwelling; year on MLS taken from an appraisal.

R1
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. The zone is intended to provide a quiet living environment free from rooming and boarding houses, commercial and industrial activities, and, to the greatest degree possible, free from other than local vehicular traffic. 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.
