A private sanctuary in the heart of Laguna Beach is found at this remodeled and extensively upgraded home in the desirable enclave of Summit Ridge. The top level offers an ocean view suite, while most spaces overlook a canopy of mature trees accented by a seasonal natural creek and waterfall. This hidden oasis of greenery recalls the tropics on a spacious street-to-street homesite that features meandering pathways, a bridge over the creek, an open-air fireplace, shimmering lights, and beautiful areas for outdoor entertaining. Indoors spaces are equally enchanting, showcasing a recent remodel and premium upgrades throughout the four-bedroom, four-and one-half-bath design of approximately 3,600 square feet. The entry level impresses with a vaulted open-beam ceiling, six skylights, fireplace, and bi-fold glass doors that open to a travertine-finished balcony with backyard views. Floor-to-ceiling picture windows capture views of the lush backyard canyon, while the stunning new kitchen displays marble countertops, an inlaid marble backsplash, custom wood Shaker cabinetry, and a suite of high-end appliances including a Lacanche free-standing range with pot filler, a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator with cabinet-matched doors, and a dishwasher and built-in coffee station from Miele. Wide-plank white oak flooring is featured throughout the home, which also reveals a top-floor ensuite with ocean and backyard views, and office with built-in shelving. Personal luxury is elevated in a the primary suite with serene views of the backyard oasis, a travertine-finished balcony, his and her closets with high-caliber built-ins, a walk-in steam shower with dual shower heads, separate sinks with LED mirrors, a sit-down vanity, and a freestanding tub with views. Across the hall, a secondary ensuite bedroom is complete with connected office and built-in banquet seating. Downstairs a ground-floor guest suite presents a bonus living area which leads to the patio, and a separate entrance creates the ideal setting for multi-generational living or as an income producing unit. While seemingly away from it all, this private haven is merely moments from Laguna’s world-famous beaches, Bluebird park, unique galleries, tennis and pickle-ball courts, shopping and dining attractions, and abundant recreation.
