EMERALD BAY | LAGUNA BEACH | Built ground up in 2007, this iconic Emerald Bay estate is perched on the exclusive north point, showcasing commanding unobstructed and direct facing views of Irvine Cove, Catalina Island, and unforgettable Pacific sunsets. Encompassing approximately 7,000 square feet, the residence offers five bedrooms—each with an en suite bath and walk-in closet—along with two additional half baths. Designed for both elegance and livability, the home includes formal living and dining rooms, a chef’s kitchen with adjoining family and casual dining areas, and two private offices. The luxurious primary suite serves as a true retreat, complete with a spa-inspired bathroom, oversized walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual walk-in closets. Indoor and outdoor living flow seamlessly. The grand entry courtyard features a fireplace and dining area, while the main-level terrace offers panoramic ocean views and an inviting lounge with a second outdoor fireplace. The lower level is an entertainer’s dream, with a private rear yard that includes an outdoor kitchen, dining space, built-in barbecue, heated spa, fire pit seating, and a putting green—all set against the backdrop of dramatic white-water vistas.
FUTURE | A visionary transformation is on the horizon. Final-stage approvals are underway for a full-scale renovation, including the addition of a 759-square-foot ADU and a stunning new infinity-edge pool and spa. Designed by renowned Laguna Beach architect Rory Foubister, the reimagined estate embraces a sophisticated soft-contemporary aesthetic, with refined finishes and modern elegance throughout. Architectural plans and renderings are available upon request.
