Property Description

Historic 1929 Victorian-Style Cottage with Ocean Views & ADU Potential in North Laguna Beach. Nestled just 0.2 miles from Crescent Bay Beach and Shaw's Cove, and under a mile from Main Beach, this two-story Victorian gem built in 1929 offers a rare coastal blend of charm and modern livability. Step back in time and experience the enduring romance of this Victorian-era jewel, perched just moments above Laguna's legendary Crescent Bay. With its gabled rooflines, classic detailing, and rich architectural heritage, this cherished residence stands as a rare testament to Laguna Beach's early coastal charm--lovingly preserved and thoughtfully updated for modern living. Originally built when craftsmanship reigned supreme, this two-story, ocean-view home offers three bedrooms and two baths across a warm, inviting layout that honors its past. Original hardwood floors, a character-rich fireplace, and period woodwork reflect the grace of a bygone era. 2 bedrooms upstairs plus an office/den with ocean views offer flexible living space, and a main-level bedroom and bath complete the layout. The kitchen appointed with granite countertops and open to the dining area balances old world character with present-day functionality. Recent upgrades include a newer split-system HVAC serving both levels, fresh interior paint and a new driveway that blends seamlessly with the home's historical charm. Outdoors, a generous, flat backyard provides a rare expanse of usable space in this coveted neighborhood--ideal for garden parties or future expansion. Above, a spacious deck reveals panoramic views of the Pacific, echoing the serenity and beauty that has drawn generations to Laguna's shoreline. Zoned R2 and brimming with potential, the property invites possibilities rarely found in homes of this caliber. With the addition of an ADU, the home could legally comprise up to three distinct units, making it ideal for extended family, guest quarters, or income-producing use. The detached two-car garage is perfect for conversion to a charming guest cottage, creative studio, or in-law suite. The Laguna Beach Trolley stop just one block away offers effortless access to the galleries, cafes, and cultural institutions. Rarely does a home of such historical distinction and coastal proximity become available. Whether you're a preservationist, a romantic, or simply someone who values authenticity, this is a timeless sanctuary waiting to be cherished for generations to come.
