About 1179 Katella Street
1179 Katella claims an enviable front-row location - hosting a picturesque 270 degree view of Laguna Beach whitewater and Catalina Island, spanning all the way on to the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Sitting on a 10,000 square foot lot, this offering is substantial. The vacant lot adjacent to the pool, was recently purchased by the Seller, and is now included in the sale of this home. Largely flat with a gentle slope, the added parcel creates a magnificent yard with view. Ocean view decks and outdoor areas are numerous, and lead to the crown jewel of the property – a magnificently large pool jutting out into the unobstructed view, offering the ultimate tranquil privacy you have been searching for. Nearly all rooms have an ocean view. This home has a three car garage with additional parking on the driveway, which is a rare bonus for hillside homes. The location is ideal – a short cul-de-sac frequented almost entirely by residents. Katella has the benefit of being considered one of the few front-row streets that share this incredible coastline vista. Stunning views, ample outdoor space, and an ocean view pool - 1179 Katella presents a rare opportunity to create the home you have been dreaming of.
