Property Description
This Craftsman cottage in Laguna Beach is a rare historical gem with preserved character and modern refinements. Registered under the beneficial Mills Act, which can provide significant property tax savings, the home was originally built in 1917 and cherished by a lineage of creatives and meticulously restored to highlight its authentic redwood walls and original Douglas fir flooring, seamlessly blending history with contemporary comforts. Recent improvements, including a new roof, new landscaping, and upgrades throughout, have all been completed within the guidelines of the Mills Act, thoughtfully enhancing the property while preserving its architectural integrity and historic character. Inside, thoughtful upgrades maintain the home’s rich heritage while infusing artistic influences. A vintage Noguchi lantern graces the living space, while a tatami mat and antique Japanese wood boxes add subtle nods to timeless design. The kitchen and bath feature hand-patinated copper finishes, and a teal handmade tile fireplace surround pays homage to classic Batchelder craftsmanship. While the home's historical designation ensures its architectural integrity, modern enhancements maximize livability. Custom shoji-style shutters provide an elegant solution for privacy, and restored pocket doors create a seamless flow throughout. The property’s charm and provenance, coupled with its carefully curated interiors, offer a serene retreat just moments from Laguna’s pristine beaches, art galleries, and vibrant cultural scene.
