A level above the rest. Every once in a while, a special Laguna Beach property becomes available ? superb finishes, delightful design details, a feeling that makes that property stand out from the ?same-o?. 1336 Terrace Way is one of these exceptional properties. Set graciously for indoor/outdoor living, glowing ipe wood decks surround the house and a generously sized pool ? ALL with ocean views. The kitchen is nothing short of spectacular ? designed by and for the restauranteur owner, a massive vintage butcher table provides the functional and visual heart of the abundantly outfitted kitchen. The ocean view great room, dining room, and kitchen flow together creating a welcoming open space ? with numerous French doors extending the living space to the outdoors. Updated thoroughly by the current owners for their own use (NOT a flip), there is not a space or surface that was not re-imagined resulting in a beautifully cohesive design statement ? this is a home to be both treasured and enjoyed. The entry is behind a gate with steps to the house, but the living is all on a single level. Once on the property, the feeling is of a private retreat and the sense of neighbors melts away. A beautiful ocean view primary suite is complemented by two additional bedrooms ? one currently outfitted as a wonderful office. Though located high enough to provide coastal views, the property is just above village level and, with the completion of the Temple Hills sidewalks, very accessible to the beaches and shopping that make Laguna famous. 1336 Terrace Way is a lifestyle as much as a home ? enjoy a beautiful life.
