Overview

This historic Art Deco landmark, recently appraised at $9 million, is located one block from Cress Beach along Laguna's Coast Highway. Originally a boutique hotel, the approximately 8,346 sq ft building has been updated and reimagined, offering possibilities for creative reuse, investment, or redevelopment. Designated under the Mills Act, the property benefits from property tax savings while preserving its architectural charm. The building features eleven 2–3 bedroom suites (nine upstairs, two down), five private offices, a large common area, kitchen, and outdoor patio. Interior corridors connect the spaces, creating flow and flexibility for multi-use configurations such as boutique hospitality, creative workspaces, live/work studios, or a coastal retreat. The property has Coast Highway visibility and proximity to beaches, dining, art galleries, and resort destinations. This is a historic Laguna Beach landmark with creative future potential.
