The home

About 827 Buena Vista Way

“Buena Vista,” this home’s street name, just begins to describe the spectacular and endless views, of the ocean from Catalina Island to Palos Verdes, and Laguna Beach’s coastline, white water, Main Beach, downtown and city lights, that can be seen from this fully renovated single-level, Temple Hills home. Completely rebuilt in 2003 and updated again in 2019, this stylish residence features oak hardwood floors, new windows and doors, a gourmet’s kitchen with professional grade stainless steel appliances including 3 convection ovens, a 6-burner gas cooktop and warming drawer, gleaming white-painted custom wood and glass cabinetry, and Brazilian slab granite countertops; additional upgrades include Waterworks tile and Perrin and Rowe Nickel plumbing fixtures throughout, new electrical and plumbing, new HVAC with air conditioning, and new awnings. Almost as showstopping as the view are the richly layered gardens surrounding the entire home with stone pathways and varietals of citrus, succulents, fruit trees, specimens, and flowering perennials. The sights and sounds of Laguna Beach are yours for the taking from this turnkey, “lock and go” home; an ever-changing panorama of sunrises, blue ocean, crashing waves, beach activity, sunsets, and city lights that never ceases to amaze and inspire. In addition, Temple Hills benefits from a new city sidewalk that makes the town of Laguna with its great restaurants, beautiful beaches, farmer’s markets and nightlife just an easy walk away.
