About this property
Perched on a quiet street in Laguna Beach’s coveted Arch Beach Heights, this home captures sweeping ocean views from Catalina and up the coast to the Palos Verdes Peninsula, with waves rolling in along the shoreline visible from almost every room. Set on a double lot, the home offers 3 bedrooms, a main-floor office/den, and a flexible media room ideal as a 4th bedroom or home gym. The kitchen opens to a family room, and a separate, generously sized living room features a fireplace. High ceilings throughout create a bright, open feel that frames the panoramic scenery. Rebuilt between 2008 and 2014, the residence provides a rare opportunity for a buyer to complete the finishing touches and create a premier Laguna Beach home. Practical features include a large walk-in laundry room, abundant storage, a two-car garage, and driveway parking for two additional vehicles.

Payment calculator
Explore a fixed-rate loan scenario. The price comes from this listing; a 20% down payment and 30-year term are starting assumptions, not requirements. Enter your own interest rate—not APR—and estimated costs.
Illustration only—not a rate quote, preapproval, lending offer or affordability determination. Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
