Welcome to the heart of Laguna Beach

Looking for a newer cottage in the village, a couple blocks away from Laguna Beach’s favorite restaurants, shops and beaches? Welcome to 361 Cress. Built in 1994 with interiors fully renovated in 2009 by Jeannette Kyser, it’s nestled in a private location with parking for up to 4 cars! Honored by the Laguna Beach Architectural Guild for “the best little house” designed by architect Lance Polster, this jewel emulates the bungalows of early California craftsman style. Carefully designed for today’s lifestyle needs, it boasts dual master suites, one per level, a light & bright great room with a central fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases and a spacious open upstairs hallway, a perfect sleeping area for young guests. A light-capturing stair tower with accent windows and rich, wood beams showers the living areas with sunshine while providing a beautiful architectural element. The fully equipped kitchen with deluxe appliances showcases Zimbabwe granite counters, classic white cabinetry, authentic Shaw farm sink and bevel-edged Carrara marble backsplash. Additional highlights include a dining area with built-in seating, a “jewel box” powder room, convenient dry bar, built-in home office area, custom Thoemmes cabinetry throughout, smooth interior walls, hand-scraped solid oak wood floors, wool carpeting, classic divided light windows, travertine bathroom finishes & more.
