About 2529 S COAST Highway
AUCTION! AUCTION! Villa Rockledge is a Laguna Beach treasure nestled into a 25,000 square foot, oceanfront lot. The 5,000 square foot, main house features 8 bedrooms, 7 baths and whitewater views from almost every window and door. Built by Frank Miller, the famed developer of the Mission Inn in Riverside, CA, the estate has been painstakingly restored by the current owner over the last two decades. The Wall Street Journal calls Villa Rockledge, 'A Castle by the Sea,' and exclaims that 'The Estate...appears to float above the private beach, fifty feet below.' (This sandy beach is 120 feet in length). The accompanying four villas can be used for guests, music-art studios, a media room or offices. There are a total of 12 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and private parking for twelve cars. Including the guest-villas, Villa Rockledge boasts over 8,000 square feet of spectacular, ocean-front living space.
