About this property

A rare expression of Bauhaus architecture, 401 Ledroit is a distinctive 1954 residence set within the coveted Emerald Terrace neighborhood of North Laguna Beach. Designed around its spectacular natural setting, the home unfolds across two levels, capturing panoramic ocean views that stretch from the Palos Verdes Peninsula toward Catalina Island. The upper level is devoted to dramatic views and effortless indoor-outdoor living. A light-filled living room is anchored by an impressive custom-built Swedish fireplace, while expansive windows frame the ever-changing Pacific beyond. Just off the main living area, a 424-square-foot view deck creates an exceptional setting for sunset gatherings, morning coffee, or simply taking in the coastline. Two bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level. The lower, main level offers a more intimate connection to the surrounding gardens. A generous family room opens to an approximately 520-square-foot deck with sit-down ocean views, creating another inviting space for outdoor living and entertaining. The primary suite, accompanied by a dedicated home office, and an additional ensuite bedroom provide privacy and flexibility, all surrounded by lush gardens and a sense of seclusion. All utilities at this home have been undergrounded so the landscape and view are unspoiled by utility wires and poles. Elegant in its simplicity, 401 Ledroit is a timeless nod to mid-century modern living—where clean architectural lines, thoughtful spaces, expansive decks, and an extraordinary coastal setting come together in quintessential Laguna Beach fashion. Camera and Audio equipment on premises.
