This setting is beyond description, its beauty so profound that words can hardly capture its essence. It must be experienced in person. Imagine the finest oceanfront view in Laguna Beach, where miles of coastline stretch before you, reminiscent of the French Riviera in both landscape and allure. By day, vibrant colors blend into a stunning panorama, and at night, the coastline glows with flickering lights that seem to stretch endlessly. Located on the coveted Marine Drive in north Laguna, this property features an oversized lot—exceptionally wide, gently sloping toward the sea, and with a rare south-easterly orientation that offers sweeping views and abundant light. A private staircase leads to Shaw's Cove below, one of Laguna's most picturesque and swimmable spots. This is 1041 Marine Drive, offered at land value but including a charming seaside cottage—over a century old and 432 square feet in size—that serves as a perfect interim retreat while you plan your dream home. The lush, garden-like atmosphere creates a sense of tranquility, broken only by the gentle breeze and the soothing sound of waves on the shore. This is where you belong.
