About this property

California Dreaming ...your own steps to the beach with gas fire pit

Property description

Designed in 1974 by The Architect Charles "Tim " Howell placed perfectly on a bluff above Tablerock beach, positioned with careful attention to the sights and sounds of ocean and beach life. Become part of the atmosphere that surrounds you, partake in the activities or simply sit on the deck and watch the activity of the wildlife, the whales, dolphin, the hummingbirds and the colorful beach goers. Sail boats glide by from Newport Harbor and Dana Point Harbor. Stand up and paddle paddlers meander along in the waves.
Laid back and earthy comfort surround you reminiscent of days gone by.
Beautiful sandstone and rock walls form a beautiful cove holding this special gem of a beach off the beaten path.
Located South of downtown Laguna and just North of Dana Point Harbor.
If you want to adventure out and about you can simply park your car in the driveway and walk to the end of the street for Laguna's free Trolley.

Several nice unique eateries are just a walk away
Restaurants; Like Abba & Coyote Grill.

Beautiful white washed wood floors throughout the house.

Bedrooms
There are 2 bedrooms with ocean viewing through sliding doors of glass, which are mostly left open to the ocean breezes. Sunshine by day and stargazing at night, the stars and moonlight over the ocean is Magical. Just sit and count the falling stars and listen to the waves.

The third bedroom shares the master bath, it has a two twin beds under a skylight, it includes sliding glass doors to the outdoor brick path leading down to a redwood gate, which leads to the small yard and patio. Sit amoung the trees , and relax in a natural hidden hideaway on the bluff itself , a place to forget about the rest of the world . Here you will find an outdoor hot shower and find a great place to hang your wet suite to dry . Fill the little refrigerator with drinks to chill as you become one with your surroundings.
Sun on the wooden bench in the garden , or walk down the steps to the beach. Great Gas Fire pit for evening star gazing.
Soft outdoor light makes it a natural camp like setting at night.

Upstairs above the main floor you’ll find a hideaway loft/ reading room with a twin bed. Open and airy it has open walls to a view the ocean, or look down on the living room and kitchen. You'll find a large desk ,comfortable couch and chair and a small private deck with a Hammock under the palms.
A great place to get out of the sun and read a good book take a nap !

Dream come true
We spent two months in this dream location. What a fabulous house. Amazing location with 24X7 view of the crashing waves on a very unique beach; So beautiful. The house is very charming, casual beach style, with lots of windows, gorgeous views throughout, and an amazing patio garden. The home is filled with art.; we discovered new artifacts every day. I felt as if I was in a treehouse on the beach. We will never forget this trip. Lots of amazing extras. I do not have the words to express how special this place was to us.

Amazing!
This property is the perfect house in the perfect setting. Upstairs living room / kitchen all glass windows (plus fireplace) and large deck overlooking a gorgeous beach, bedrooms downstairs with the same view, direct / private access to the beach, and the front of the home has a very private patio with the most zen, peaceful setting. Susan is the perfect host, we couldn't have asked for more. We stayed 31 days, felt like we were home, and didn't want to leave!

Laguna Beach
I have had the pleasure of staying at this Laguna home for over a month. The view, the access to a spectacular beach and the house are all exceptionally nice. Located on a quiet street yet close to all that Laguna Beach has to offer. The owner, Susan, is yet another reason to consider leasing this property. We were made to feel welcome on arrival. Susan was always available to suggest a great restaurant or answer a question. I have no hesitation in saying I will return to this unique home. It’s perfect in so many ways.

Great home with lots of character on the ocean.
If your looking for the ocean, this is it, great value in comparison to many other properties. Susan is a great host, addresses any issues or question you may have so promptly. She is either onsight or easily reachable. Location is safe and quiet except for the ocean waves and the bright stars. Our family enjoyed private steps down to beach. And steps back up to cook dinner and grill on the beautiful deck. In the evening off to the fire pit to chill and make s’mores. Access to trolly 100 steps from house to get up and down Laguna on PCH.
