About 1238 Anacapa Way
Sky Meets Sea — Chris Light Architectural Estate with Panoramic Ocean Views Welcome to a home where the sky truly meets the sea. Perched above Laguna Beach’s treasured coastline, this architectural estate by renowned architect Chris Light captures sweeping ocean and sunset views from nearly every room. Beautifully reimagined with sophisticated contemporary finishes including a Lutron lighting and shade system and Savant Smart Audio, this home embraces effortless indoor-outdoor California living. Walls of glass open the main living spaces to an expansive upper deck, placing the Pacific at center stage—from brilliant blue days and dramatic sunsets to the sound of waves crashing at night. The main level features open living and dining spaces, a beautifully appointed kitchen with integrated refrigeration, wine chiller, a walk-in pantry, and two bedrooms. The ocean-view primary offers a king bed, direct deck access, and a spa-inspired bath, while the second bedroom features a queen bed. The lower level offers a private living experience of its own, with a second living area featuring shuffleboard, a second kitchen and wine cooler, two additional bedrooms, two full baths, laundry, and another ocean-view deck. One bedroom features two twin beds; the other doubles as a private ocean-view office with a queen Murphy bed. Peaceful and private yet just minutes from downtown Laguna Beach and Main Beach, this home offers the best of both worlds—a coastal retreat with the restaurants, galleries, shops, and beaches of Laguna moments away. 4 Bedrooms | 4 Baths | Sleeps 8 King • Queen • Two Twins • Queen Murphy Bed Two Ocean-View Decks • Two Kitchens • Two Laundry Areas Private Ocean-View Office • Shuffleboard • Parking for Two Cars *FOUR MONTH MINIMUM, LEASE TERMS NEGOTIABLE* A rare union of architecture, privacy, and place—where every day begins and ends with the Pacific.
