Taking full advantage of its commanding hilltop location, the residence features a dramatic ocean view living room with sit down views, presented through a wall of large windows and dual sets of sliding glass doors. A whitewashed, coastal-themed interior ensures that nothing distracts from the alluring, dynamic hues of the sea and sky; a spacious covered terrace makes it possible to relax outside and enjoy the ocean breezes, even when rain is in the forecast. Entering from the terrace, the dining room allows for ocean view entertaining. Rough-hewn vaulted ceilings and new wood floors balance the deep blues of the ocean and sky; a bespoke gourmet kitchen, a primary suite with a seamless corner window and a unique, well-conceived floor plan are further examples of the attention to detail that went into the renovation of this inviting home. Multiple skylights create a cheerful atmosphere in the open concept family room/kitchen. Separated by a large center island, the kitchen offers granite counters, custom cabinets with glass insets, a stylish tile backsplash and new high-end SS appliances, including dual ovens and a gas range. Along with endless ocean views, the primary suite has a large closet with built-in dressers and a soaking tub. Generous secondary bedrooms, an updated secondary bathroom with stone counters and a spacious walk-in shower, an expansive lower-level rec room/office/fitness center and an attached two-car garage add versatility to the floor plan. Other highlights include two spacious lower-level storage rooms and a fenced-in yard/dog run. With a peaceful yet convenient location a short drive away from Victoria Beach and Treasure Island, which has a protected cove and an array of facilities partially maintained by the Montage, plus easy access to award-winning schools, the scenic hiking trails at Moulton Meadows Park and the amenities of Laguna Beach via Laguna Local, a complimentary ride service, this home offers a lifestyle many are dreaming about.
