Situated in the prestigious Lower Summit Ridge neighborhood near Bluebird Park, this rare approximately 9,988 sq ft homesite presents a stunning opportunity to build a contemporary masterpiece designed by the world-renowned architect Paul McClean. This property is poised to appreciate the serene beauty of Summit Ridge, offering breathtaking canyon and ocean views. Already granted design review approval in September 2019, the included plans are nearly "permit ready," allowing the new owner to commence construction immediately—bypassing the extensive and costly design review process. The proposed residence spans approximately 2,200 square feet with an open-plan design that maximizes views from every room. It includes three-bedrooms, three-bathrooms, spacious view decks, and elevator access from the garage through both levels of the main house. Additionally, an approved accessory dwelling unit (ADU) offers flexibility as a rental income opportunity or as an integral part of the main residence. Located just a short distance from the beach and downtown, and with the city's approved resolution to underground utility lines from Cress Street to Saling Way, this property not only promises a peaceful setting but also enhances its value and appeal. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture the essence of a sophisticated coastal lifestyle in one of Laguna Beach's most coveted areas.
