IT IS ALL ABOUT THE VIEW!! For the first time EVER, this San Remo property in Laguna Beach is available after being lovingly held by the same family that built it decades ago. A true hidden gem with extraordinary potential, the home offers sweeping views of Main Beach, the Hotel Laguna, Catalina and the coastline. Its prime location and dramatic vistas make it an extraordinary canvas for creating a dream coastal retreat. Just minutes from Laguna’s world-famous beaches, art galleries, and vibrant village life, this property is a rare chance to reimagine a home in one of Southern California’s most treasured seaside communities. Make no mistake, the property is in original condition. It needs cosmetic love. But the upside is incredible!!! The Upper/Main floor currently features 3-4 bedrooms. Downstairs (adjacent to front door) is another area which was part of the original construction that is currently used as a separate/small 1 bedroom. This has not been formally permitted as a separate ADU but would seem to qualify as such as it was part of the original home and within the footprint/envelope of the house. Interested parties should check with the City. And... it also has remarkable views. Or, if desired, the original doorway between this area and the rest of the house could be easily restored.. PROPERTY SOLD AS IS.
