About 895 Manzanita Drive
Quintessential Laguna Beach charmer. Enter the inviting Dutch door into this 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage comfortably situated on an adorable garden lot and enjoy ocean views from most living areas. Local architect James Ward Henry II did some remodel work when the current owners bought the home helping to create an intelligent floor plan & smart use of space. The home has recently undergone a top to bottom refresh. Original Douglas Fir wood floors were refinished & new carpeting installed in both bedrooms. An updated master bathroom features quartz counter tops, subway tile shower enclosure, and cement (encaustic) flooring. The gourmet kitchen features soapstone counter tops; newly refinished cabinetry; and Subzero, Wolf, Bosch, and KitchenAid appliances to make cooking in your ocean view kitchen a true delight. A gas fireplace insert was added to the original rustic stone fireplace to allow heating your living room with the touch of a remote. Step out the kitchen Dutch door onto the large deck to enjoy sunset ocean views: perfect for entertaining. The front and side European-inspired garden areas offer just enough room for creativity for those with a bucolic spirit. This home is a C rated historic property and is listed on the Laguna Beach historic register. This special cottage is a perfect example of what defines the original Laguna Beach village character. These well-maintained gems don't come available very often.
