About 1101 Marine Drive
‘TWIN POINTS’ is a landmark 2.28 acre oceanfront estate on the coast of Southern California. Majestically situated, its 1,400’ of waterfront includes two massive landforms projecting into the ocean. These ‘twin points’ shelter its private cove that lies between. Magnificent tropical gardens and lawns contrast against the buff-colored cliffs and azure waters, creating an enchanting setting. Specimen palms dot the bluffs and define the open expanses. Multiple exposures capture endless panoramas of the ocean, Catalina and sunsets. At night, the entire coastline of Laguna is alight.‘Twin Point’s privacy is unmatched. Behind its gates, improvements include a motor court, a Polynesian-themed main residence + guest house. A pool and terraces await repose. Meticulously kept, these elements complement the setting and subtly bring order to an environment directed to the out of doors. A cove with private access further distinguishes the estate and adjoins a lagoon. Situated amid picturesque coves often referred to as “the most beautiful mile of coastline anywhere,” this property is the centerpiece. Held in the same lineage since 1930, Twin Points’ history is a storied past of seaside days, stylish parties and summer evenings spent overlooking the ocean and sunsets.
