Villa Sirena, aka "the House of Mermaids", is a charming Italianate-style villa graciously sited up on a South Laguna Beach hillside, overlooking the Pacific. A curving stone stairwell descends to wrought-iron gates that open onto the walled entry courtyard and the meticulously manicured grounds that surround the home. The 3 bedroom, 4 bath residence is offered fully-furnished for short-term (30+ day) terms, ranging from one month up to 6 month terms (pending availability). Two of the bedrooms are downstairs while the Master Suite occupies the entirety of the upstairs in the home, giving it a private, studio-like feel. All of the bedrooms have private, ensuite bathrooms. Sweeping ocean & neighborhood views from the Master suite and private balcony that overlook the backyard and the luxe pool. The sparkling salt water pool is a rare thing for the area and is ideal for summer days with friends. The exterior landscape is worthy of its own description - expansive green lawns, manicured hedges, sago palms & olive trees, roses & camellias, cascading rosemary & plumeria all come together to make a delightful setting that feels somehow both luxurious and carefree. Villa Sirena so named for the numerous mermaids found throughout the home is truly a lovely home. For those who enjoy cooking, the open Kitchen has all the amenities a chef would expect - dual dishwashers, touch faucets, expansive counter space and a gorgeous La Cornue oven/range. The Family room features a 55-inch LCD television with surround sound and plenty of comfy seating. The home also offers a formal Living room with a beautiful fireplace for evening ambiance that opens onto the backyard. Come enjoy Villa Serena soon! Offered fully-furnished for short-term (30+ day) terms, ranging from one month up to 6 month terms (pending availability).
