Property Description

Set upon the finest non-oceanfront lot in the unparalleled enclave of Irvine Cove, this legacy home is on the market for the first time in nearly 50 years. Timeless mid-century architecture sets the stage for this design-driven property with interiors conceived by famed designer Fari Pakzad, with 4,524 +/- s.f. of interior spaces that feature clean lines & flowing natural light. Perched on an elevated bluff, this home commands exquisite white-water views of the Pacific, making it a rare gem, in an exclusive community. The elevated, oversized corner lot rises above street level, capturing the cool spray of salt air and provides a private vantage point where stunning sunsets become the backdrop of an extraordinary lifestyle. Expanses of glass look out on rugged cliffs & ocean swells in the living & dining rooms, and the kitchen connects to an immense lounge area with wet bar, where oversized skylights create the feel of a luxe atrium. Four spacious bedrooms include 2 rooms that open to a spa patio, an additional guest room and a master suite in a separate wing that offers whitewater views, incredible closet space & an ensuite with natural light. An outdoor entertaining space with sweeping views has covered seating, a bar & BBQ kitchen, and a gated motor court securely accesses garaging for 5 cars. The crown jewel of Laguna Beach ocean bluff communities, Irvine Cove is guard-gated, with exclusive access to tennis courts, and a pristine private beach a short distance from the bluff.
