About 1947 Rim Rock Canyon Road

On the market for the first time in decades, 1947 Rim Rock Canyon offers a singular opportunity to own an ultra-private 1.8-acre compound with expansive ocean and canyon views. This largely flat parcel in a prime Temple Hills location features incredible panoramas from nearly every corner - an ideal canvas for those looking for an opportunity to build a dream estate. As secluded as it is tranquil, this property is accessed via a gate at the end of a long, gently sloping driveway. Beyond it, the terraced lot offers meticulously manicured grounds with several lookout areas, creating the ultimate tranquil haven. The main structure exudes charm, with cottage architectural details and weeping mortar accents. Landscaped with care, the vast grounds feature multiple stone patios and gravel walkways, creating an idyllic setting for enjoying nature. The front English-style garden, with a maze of precisely maintained hedges, is anchored by a central fountain. While removed from the bustle of the city itself, this one-of-a-kind estate offers easy access to Laguna Beach’s renowned galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and beaches.
