You know when it just feels good. Not too big, not too small, tranquil ocean views, magical outdoor spaces, and ample privacy – this lovingly updated cottage is the result of marrying the best of old and new, and placing it between a street named for the goddess of flowers (Flora) and another named for the gem of the seas (Pearl). Behind large privacy hedges, the dutch-door entry of 365 Flora Street leads to an open room, cleverly separated into a living, dining and charming library/media space. The longtime current owners have updated the home with care and consideration – inside and out. The result is a home that makes the most of the California lifestyle – the outside is as appealing as the interior. The three bedrooms fill the upper level, with nostalgic dormer windows lighting the rooms. Surprisingly, the home’s position allows wonderful ocean views without giving up privacy. With a location just blocks from some of the best beaches, restaurants, and retail therapy in Laguna, the home makes for a marvelous place to nest all year round. They always say good things come in small packages – you will love the life you can lead at this very special home.
