About 20431 Sun Valley Drive
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to own a piece of
Laguna Beach history at a charming two bedroom, two
bathroom cottage. Built in 1932, this home was originally

Located on an expansive lot of almost one third of an
acre, the garden offers a variety of fruit trees. A pathway leads to a magnificent shade tree that cools the cozy
