It was an amazing day in Laguna Beach this past Wednesday. There were 3 homes that I really wanted to see. The first one was down by 1000 Steps in South Laguna Beach. If you have never heard of 1000 Steps, it is a stair access to the beach that has about 220 stairs to a small, hidden beach. Most people don't know about this place as it is hard to see from PCH. The best thing to do is to park at the hospital and then cross PCH at the light. Walk about 100 yards south and then you will be in front of the steps. The stairs are somewhat steep so you don't want to go on a rainy day as you will slip right down the staircase. I used to work out at 1000 Steps. The first time I went to 1000 Steps I went up and down the stairs 5 times. I thought I was going to die. I had a 7 day burn. After that I kept to 3 rounds. Many people go to the stairs just to work out. You won't feel the burn when you are going up and down, it is later that afternoon when it kicks in. When I became seasoned at walking up and down the stairs, I would switch it up a bit and run the beach. Trust me, this didn't happen right away. Anyway, not to get off on a tangent. I haven't been to the stairs in over a year. Looking at homes in that area reminded me of what a great workout it is.
Anyway, the first house I went to was on Seacliff, this was an amazing home........views from all levels. The community is on a ledge overlooking the ocean This home had a sunken living room, so to speak, and the kitchen overlooked the living room and ocean. Unbelievable views. I thought the home was well priced at $3.65 million. You are not on the beach......but very close.
The next home I went to was very unique. This home is on Victoria Drive. It is a Chris Abel design. If you don't like stairs, this home is not for you. It seems this home had about 5 levels. The bottom level has an apartment with its own kitchen and laundry room. Every level had an ocean view. There were a couple of bonus rooms.....one was used for a piano room. I love the patio off of the living room. There was a fireplace and ledge overlooking the ocean. This home has a lot of character and charm. Again, I think this home is well priced between $4.99 and $5.29 million.
The last home on my tour was on Cress Street. You may know of Cress Street, the Rooftop Lounge is on the corner. The Rooftop Lounge is on the roof of the hotel La Casa Del Camino. This is another cute, charming hotel in Laguna Beach. The Rooftop Lounge has some of the most amazing views of the ocean that you will see in Laguna Beach. Go early as this place fills up quick! Back to the home I was there to see......actually it was 3 newly renovated cottages. They were really cute. Many details that were unique. Buy all 3 for $8.9 million.
My next post I am going to post some great pictures I took of the mountains that are snow capped.
Have a great weekend!
