Located at one of the highest points in Laguna Beach’s Mystic Hills enclave, this masterfully maintained and carefully improved Mid-Century Modern showplace is a testament to the architectural ingenuity of Vivian Iris Rossen. Known for her diverse portfolio that even includes designing the Pope's vestments for his services during his Australian visit and architectural contributions to the Anglican community in Western Australia, Rossen's craftsmanship shines through in this residence. The home offers sweeping vistas of sit-down whitewater, coastal, Laguna Canyon, hill, and evening-light views. Beyond a gated entry courtyard, complete privacy and an exceptionally bright living space await. In classic Laguna Beach fashion, the indoor spaces are just the beginning for this Mystic Hills residence. Located only a half-mile from the beach, the home is perched on a generous 10,000-square-foot lot, offering a variety of outdoor gathering spaces ideal for al fresco entertainment. Walls of floor-to-ceiling low-e glass flood the home with natural light, allowing for seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor areas. Sliding-glass doors open to patios and a wraparound homesite, which features a stunning 121 feet of view frontage. The great room serves as the heart of the home, anchored by a honed-travertine fireplace and a soaring ceiling. Light wooden floors create an inviting sense of warmth, complemented by honed travertine in select rooms. A dining area flows directly into an upgraded kitchen outfitted with Carrara marble countertops, a turquoise glass-tile backsplash, and stainless-steel Viking appliances. Custom built-ins, custom interior doors, and recessed lighting add to the home's elegance. The primary suite offers ocean and North Laguna views, opening directly to one of the outdoor patios and featuring ample closet space, double sinks, and a marble countertop. An attached two-car garage and a stone driveway provide convenient off-street parking for guests. Laguna’s Main Beach, village shops and restaurants, and top-rated schools are all within easy reach, making this extraordinary Vivian Iris Rossen-designed residence the epitome of coastal living.
