About 2972 Rounsevel Terrace

Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in Laguna Beach’s Upper Victoria Beach, this beautifully upgraded three-bedroom, three-bathroom home blends timeless beach cottage charm with modern luxury. Enter through a private front courtyard gate, where French doors welcome you into the bright, airy living room. Beamed cathedral ceilings enhance the openness, while natural light creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. Just beyond, a cozy den retreat features a brick fireplace, custom built-ins, and a single glass-paned door leading to the tranquil backyard. The gourmet kitchen is a masterpiece of style and function, featuring Blue Stone countertops, a spacious eat-in island, custom built-ins, and top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, along with the original 1924 fireplace. A generous seating area offers breathtaking ocean views, and the dining area provides the perfect setting for intimate gatherings. The stucco and tile fireplace adds warmth, while a Dutch door opens to the private front courtyard and an approx. 400 sq. ft. ocean-view deck. Ascend a few steps to the primary suite, a true sanctuary with ocean views, built-ins, and an ensuite bath adorned with Italian light fixtures and a large walk-in closet. A stunning copper soaking tub, set behind vintage French doors, is an iconic feature showcased in The Proposal movie. The two secondary bedrooms are equally bright and inviting, with one featuring a charming Dutch door and private entry. Solid vintage barn wood floors throughout add character. Additional features include handmade designer wallpaper, Toto toilets, original solid copper outdoor lanterns, a Navien tankless water heater, and a Pure Elements water filtration system (2022). The home underwent a full electrical upgrade (2014), along with a newer roof and gutters (2019) and enhancements such as Lutron-controlled lighting. Three Rinnai wall gas heaters in the primary suite, dining room, and guest bedroom ensure year-round comfort. Surrounded by lush gardens and ocean views, this rare flat-lot property offers multiple outdoor retreats, including a private front deck, serene grassy yard, and a spacious backyard escape. Located moments from Victoria Beach, The Montage, and local favorites like The Drake and Dizz’s, this home is perfectly positioned to enjoy Laguna’s best dining, art galleries, shops, and beaches. The nearby PCH trolley stop adds convenience. A rare offering in an unbeatable location, this Laguna Beach gem is the ultimate coastal retreat.
