In the heart of Laguna Beach sits one of the finest homes you will ever see ! As you drive up Temple Hills Drive, you turn into the large circular driveway under the canopy of a beautiful tall pine that creates a wonderful introduction. The moment you pass through the Dutch door into the spacious entry with vaulted ceilings and windows of natural light you know this home has been meticulously designed to the smallest detail. Diagonal wide plank oak wood floors, imported German glass mirrors, custom built cabinetry with indirect lighting, custom hardware, wainscoting... no design accent has been missed. The luxurious living room features a Coquina stone work fireplace wall, vaulted tongue and groove ceilings - next is the classic "Chef's" kitchen which features a 48" Viking Range, stainless KitchenAid double refrigerator/freezer, wine frig. granite counters, vegetable sink, custom cabinetry and both rooms open seamlessly to the spacious rear patio with al fresco dining area, Coyote BBQ island and lounge area all of which enjoy Ocean, canyon and fiery sunset views. Below is a generous grass area where you will find the ocean view spa and steps down to the gently sloping fruit orchard that completes this approx. 14,000 sf lot. There are three bedrooms all with en-suite bathrooms, one of the bedrooms has been transformed into a moody lounge with grass wallpaper, custom wood finish cabinetry and back lit bar. The Primary bedroom enjoys a large walk-in closet, resort-like bathroom with Carrara marble counters, tile wainscoting, a steam shower and separate bath tub. Technical features include Lutron lighting, Sonos surround sound system throughout and an electric charging system by the attached two car garage. This is truly a one of a kind must-see for anyone looking for the finest quality available in Laguna Beach.
