The resort-style backyard features a sparkling saltwater pool and jacuzzi, Ipe wood deck, poolside bar, outdoor kitchen with BBQ, alfresco terrace with firepit and multiple lounging areas. Ivory travertine walkways connect spacious patios framed by teak-capped black iron railings, mature and native landscaping. Ambient landscape lighting and soft music from outdoor speakers create inviting ambiance. Inside, the main level boasts an airy, open-concept layout with euro hardwood floors, open beam ceilings, and a smooth plaster fireplace. Built-in white oak entertainment center and wet bar with wine and beverage fridges. Sunsets and ocean views fill the living room, primary bedroom, and kitchen with golden light, while expansive bi-fold doors open onto a raised deck overlooking the pool and serene greenbelt canyon beyond. The main kitchen and ADU are equipped with Thermador Professional appliances, stunning quartzite countertops, Rohl faucets, and elegant designer lighting by Blueprint, Visual Comfort, Worley, and Cedar & Moss.

Additional spa-like features include Watermark brass fixtures, a Toto wall-mounted toilet, and a freestanding Victoria & Albert soaking tub. A private side door provides direct access to the pool and outdoor shower—ideal for late-night swims. Additional features include a stylish office with built-ins, spacious guest quarters with a walk-in closet, and a designer guest bathroom adorned with Zellige tile, Watermark fixtures, and a Toto wall-mounted toilet. Two beautifully appointed powder rooms add convenience and charm. The lower-level ADU serves as an expansive guest suite or entertainment space, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Positioned poolside, it includes limestone flooring, a large island, and bi-fold windows that open to form a poolside bar. The ADU bathroom offers Zellige tile, Watermark fixtures, Toto toilet, and a custom white oak vanity—creating a serene escape all its own. Perfectly located near the pristine beaches, dining, and shopping of South Laguna, this exceptional home offers the ideal blend of privacy, luxury, and lifestyle—whether as a family retreat, multi-generational living space, or entertainer’s haven.
