Experience the rare combination of space, views, and opportunity in this expansive ranch-style coastal retreat. Set on a nearly 10,000 square foot lot, this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence offers 2,500 square feet of living space — an exceptional find for buyers seeking room to grow in a premier coastal setting. Wake up to sweeping hillside and peak ocean views, with the potential of stunning ocean views with a little help from your friendly neighbor trimming their trees. The generous lot size opens the door to incredible upside potential: envision a resort-style pool, expanded living areas, or a detached guest house to create a true private compound. Inside, the home has already been thoughtfully upgraded with a new kitchen cabinets, partially renovated bathrooms, new flooring, and fresh interior paint. The flexible floor plan includes a fourth bedroom and bath addition, while the existing primary suite offers the unique advantage of functioning as a potential ADU, complete with a separate entrance and kitchen — ideal for multigenerational living, guests, or rental income. For buyers looking for a larger coastal property with immediate comfort and long-term value-add potential, this is a rare opportunity to create a custom Laguna compound tailored to your vision — all while enjoying breathtaking views and the best of coastal living.
