Property Description
8 Rockledge Road is an oceanfront masterpiece, a crown jewel of Laguna Beach, unmatched in beauty and atmosphere. Sprawling across a generous 10,400 sq.ft.+ parcel, this Spanish-revival estate is rich in history. Originally designed by celebrated architect Garrett Van Pelt in 1930, the property was painstakingly renovated over a three-year period, ending in July 2024. Modern elegance meets ultimate luxury with spectacular white-water views from nearly every room. A massive 50-foot balcony overlooks Rockledge’s beach, perfect for viewing sunsets and dolphins. The home comes fully furnished (Italian furniture by Cantoni). This is a Mills Act-approved property, which recognizes the historic significance and provides property tax relief. Current annual taxes are only $25,477.
The latest design is paired with the best of natural materials, such as stunning Calacatta marble and 12-inch wide European white oak flooring throughout. The gourmet kitchen features a spectacular island with room for six, Leitch cabinets (Germany), and Miele appliances, including a 48-inch gas range, separate fridge and freezer, speed oven, and coffeemaker. The home theater, arguably the best in Orange County, turns cinema into reality with a 4K laser projector, 176-inch screen, 18 speakers, and 26,000 watts custom-made amplifiers. There are 3 Sony 77-inch QD-OLED TVs and 18 speakers throughout the house programmed and controlled by Savant's latest system.
This 5,000 square foot trophy home is a smart home and allows you to effortlessly control your lifestyle with your fingertips. Other features include a 3-car garage, wine cellar, outdoor shower, 6-zone Mitsubishi high efficiency HVAC system, state-of-the art security, alarm system with 4K cameras, and an elevator that accesses all three floors.
Outside, a generously sized and beautifully landscaped backyard stands between you and the ocean. The City of Laguna Beach Design Review Board recently approved an infinity edge pool, hot tub, and fire pit. The large backyard, infinity edge pool, and private beach access are a rare combination for an oceanfront property in Laguna Beach.
The house meets new building codes and structural requirements, and the structure has extensive use of steel beams and columns. It features all-new electrical and plumbing. The entire house has spray foam insulation, making it extremely quiet, well insulated, and pest/termite resistant.
