This Lower Bluebird Canyon, Laguna Beach, home was remodeled and expertly re-imagined to a stylish “Modern Farmhouse” with a local coastal flair. Oozing with cosmopolitanism, the house is a perfect blend of modern amenities, an open floor plan, thoughtful details, and handsome finish materials, including painted shiplap paneling, engineered white oak flooring, Quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, mosaic tiled baths, and “ultra-cool” details like a sliding barn door. Designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home is entered from a covered veranda and large brick patio into a great room with a dining area, skylights, new LED lighting, and a big sliding glass door leading to an oversized rear deck with a fire pit and entertaining spaces. The galley kitchen features stainless steel appliances, painted cabinets with self-closing drawers, and a counter-bar seating area. The home has a luxurious master suite with his and her closets, a large shower bath, laundry, and doors leading to both patio spaces; in addition, there are two bedroom suites and a hall bath. The elevated oversized lot has serene hillside views, and the house is flooded with natural light. All of the fun of Laguna Beach is out your doors; walk to Bluebird Park, the beach, or the city’s vibrant village and “Hip district” with its fine retail shopping, art galleries, award-winning restaurants, and nightlife.
