About This Property
This is a rare opportunity to lease an extraordinary seaside home with over 80 feet of ocean frontage. Do you ever dream of living in that idyllic cottage by the sea," a perfectly stylish oceanfront home with spectacular light and never-ending panoramas of the sights and sounds of the Pacific? The picturesque Rockledge coastline of Laguna Beach is such a place. It served as the backdrop and inspiration to the original "Plein Air Artists," Edgar Payne, Frank Cuprien, William Wendt, and others, who sought to capture its magnificence in their paintings. An owner seldom takes on the task of painstakingly rebuilding a home with the idea of preservation and integrity, as the current stewards of this home have. With an eye for detail, thoughtful and authentic restoration and replacement of original woodwork, yet rejuvenating the homes with modern classic fixtures, finishes, cabinetry, and top-of-the-line everything, including Waterworks plumbing fixtures, solid brass light fixtures, beautiful furniture and furnishings, and original California art. If you love the vintage character of "Old California" and Laguna Beach, this home will appeal to you. 7 Rockledge, or "Cliffhanger," is designed in the Craftsman style of that era. Constructed in 1923, the inside of the home brims with vintage charm and character with white painted board and batten siding, vaulted beam ceilings, painted hardwood floors, exposed roof trusses, and a substantial rugged fireplace fashioned from local tumbled beach boulders anchor the great room. On the first level is a new kitchen, office space, two dining areas, and a deck that all peer out to the ocean. The elegant primary suite features a tiled bath and overlooks the gardens. The lower level features three seaside bedrooms and two baths. The grounds of the home are equally artful and entered by a natural pathway of local stonework, leading to two comfortable seating areas for small or large gatherings with firepits and gardens brimming with succulents, boxwoods, Citrus, melaleucas, perennials, and Eucalyptus. Best described as having an understated elegance, this cottage offers an extraordinary opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature with friends and family and rejuvenate surrounded by the finest furniture, furnishings, art, and appointments."
