    What's special

    An entertainer's dream! This charming cottage in South Laguna has 3 bedrooms plus study and 2.5 baths. With exceptional ocean views and a short distance to West Street and Thousand Steps beaches, this house will make you feel like you are on vacation every day! The home was originally built in the 1930s on a double lot. The current owners carefully restored the cottage in 2013 with exceptional attention to detail. There is a large deck for entertaining and watching the sunsets over Catalina Island, and two additional decks at the front and rear for quiet relaxation. The kitchen, breakfast bar and dining room all have ocean views. The front garden was professionally landscaped, and the rear garden has a large flat grass area with a built-in BBQ and additional entertaining space. This beautiful home provides a peaceful retreat, yet is located just a few blocks from amazing beaches, local shops and restaurants.
