The kitchen and master suite, the focal points of many homes, have been given utmost attention. The kitchen features professional-quality stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, Rohl fixtures and Carrara marble countertops. The master suite hosts a luxurious spa-like bathroom appointed with Carrara marble, and featuring a sumptuous soaking tub, large glassed-in shower, Rohl fixtures and dual sinks. There are two additional bedroom suites. Paramount among the many amenities and features of this home are some of the most spectacular views in Laguna Beach. Beyond the professional landscaping, with its olive and fruit trees and drought-resistant vegetation, these world-class vistas are reminders that this is a shining jewel among Orange County homes.
