Property Description
Perched at the end of an elevated, single-loaded cul-de-sac shared by just four homes, this rare Mystic Hills estate presents an extraordinary opportunity to create a private coastal retreat or showpiece entertainer’s residence. Set on a 22,000-square-foot, half-acre point lot, the property captures sweeping 180-degree ocean, whitewater and hillside views with exceptional privacy, open sightlines and no rooftop visual clutter. Offered for the first time in over sixty years, the residence has been fully cleared on the interior and is ready for a complete custom remodel. Seller has secured January 2026 Design Review Board approval for a major three-level transformation of approximately 6,800 square feet, offering a remarkable head start for the next owner’s vision. A once-in-a-generation Laguna Beach offering, this property combines scale, privacy, views and location in a setting that simply cannot be replicated. All remodeled and furnished images are digitally created to illustrate the home’s potential; the property is currently vacant, unfurnished and ready for renovation.
