Description

Architectural sophistication sets the stage for a contemporary retreat amidst the natural beauty of the Canyon paired with vast ocean views. In addition to capturing the essence of its vibrant Bluebird locale, the owners created a design that celebrated the home’s existing heritage and architectural features with a refreshed modern overlay. The resulting reinvention of the space involved injecting a combination of lighter tones with art and textiles to establish a dialogue between contemporary design with the historical elements of Laguna. While entering the property, a runway of reclaimed wood leads you directly to the wall of windows. Here you'll be immersed in the lush beauty of the canyon landscapes, while also taking in striking panoramic ocean views. By opening up the interior to the outdoors, daily functions spill outward across the threshold, further enhancing the available floor space. An island kitchen featuring newly installed two-tone cabinetry, high grade appliances, and a hidden built-in pantry acts as the entertainment core of the home. The residence merges effortlessly to host three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a generously sized “office / art studio” with a separate access point completely isolated from the main living space. Unlike many properties in the city, the home offers a comfortable parking situation with its sizable updated garage and full length driveway area. Below, the owners took inspiration from stays at their favorite seaside resorts while creating the primary suite. Encircled by mature vegetation, the room acts as the home's true private enclave. As you continue you’ll notice the principle ensuite was completely overhauled by the owners. Understanding the importance of the surrounding views, they chose to place a free standing bathtub prominently in the suite while also protecting its privacy. This position creates an intimate moment to savor the picturesque scenery. While connecting to the moods, textures and hues of coastal living, this Bluebird residence offers a sense of escape. The result is a dynamic, contemporary family home that perfectly responds to its beachside locale.
