Description

Step through the doors of 394 Pinecrest and be transported back to the golden days of Laguna Beach, where the coastal charm of yesteryear meets timeless mid-century design. Crafted by renowned modernist Knowlton Fernald, this home evokes an immediate sense of excitement and invites you to relive an era when Laguna was the secret hideaway of artists, dreamers, and visionaries.

Perched above the iconic Laguna Beach coastline, this home offers postcard-perfect white water views stretching from the shores of Main Beach to the distant Dana Point Headlands, and every point and cove along the way. As you walk in, floor-to-ceiling glass walls allow natural light to flood the open-concept living space, blurring the line between indoors and the untamed beauty outside. You have your choice of three outdoor spaces—a shaded front patio, a side patio perfect for zen relaxation, and an expansive ocean-facing deck that wraps around the front of the home and is perfect for outdoor dining and hosted gatherings.

Nestled in a private enclave, yet minutes from the heart of Laguna’s art galleries, beaches, and renowned restaurants, 394 Pinecrest offers not just a home but an experience—one where time seems to slow, and the magic of Laguna Beach’s storied past is ever-present.

  • Kimi
    "Overly crowded with tourists but beautiful beach town. Different types of beaches and scenic spots for walking and always feels safe "
  • Daniellekgerbino
    "The area is great. Schools are top notch & people are very kind. The roads are tore up & lots of vacant buildings. It’s sad "
  • Mica Hoffman
    "Free trolley and local vehicle transport is free for locals and visitors and makes transportation easy throughout the city, but influx of visitors in warmer months heavily impacts traffic. As a local, riding a bike is easier to get around in than a vehicle when it’s 68° or above."
  • Sabrina Skelly
    "Laguna has a lot of charm, good food and shopping, a variety of coffee shops/cafes, and mostly friendly people. Overall dog friendly but public spaces like side walks, grassy areas, and roads could be better (and the city is slowly but surely updating). "
  • Sabrina Skelly
    "Many families in the area, good schools. Community is rather safe for kids. But mainly the streets aren’t always safe as there are many bad and reckless drivers that come through laguna. That would be my greatest concern as a parent in Laguna. Driver’s education and safety for pedestrians and cyclists "
  • Sarah
    "I live in downtown Laguna — just steps a way from Festivsl of the Arts, Saw Dust and lots of great places to shop, eat and socialize. The beach is just a short 5 min walk away. "
  • Eric Terrill
    "The Dogs I see always seem happy. Plus, There is a dog park where they can play off leash. The area is a beautiful place to walk your dog. Only certain areas at the beach are dog friendly."
  • Paradise
    "I have lived here for 3 years. I love it here. People are friendly and helpful. You can walk to the best restaurants, great shops, grocery stores, and art galleries. Love walking to the post office. It feels like a small town although people come here from all walks of life and visit from all over the world."
  • Rose S.
    "Most of the time there is easy access through the canyon. Sometimes there is traffic, but most the time the drive is great. I love it when I get to drive on PCH to either Newport Beach or Dana Point. It is some of the most beautiful coast in California."
  • Sabrina Skelly
    "Good family neighborhood, nice area, low crime. No sidewalks, so street infrastructure can be unsafe. Parks are driving distance, not many parks in walking distance. PCH and bad drivers are a larger risk. "
  • Jayde House
    "The Laguna beach dog park is the best in the county! 3 acres. Gorgeous maintained. Very dog friendly community. Beaches are dog friendly during off season."
  • Tricia Harper

  • Steve B.
    "Right now it’s walking down the hall. Otherwise, at 6:00 AM 20 minutes to Newport Beach. Traffic is not an issue at that hour. "

  • Marci S.
    "This cul-de-sac is rumored to be the first site of the Pageant of the Masters, and our pool was the first pool in Laguna Beach"
  • Ivanka B.
    "I work from home and live a block from the beach. No complaints. The commute during tourist season doubles but the Laguna Beach lifestyle is worth it!"
  • Kermorsey
    "I think it’s important that parents take their kids to the parks in the neighborhood and Laguna for their kids to play with each other. The baseball team through Laguna Beach and school activities are incredible. I see a lot of the high school kids and my grandson as well surfing down at Thalia Street"
  • Kermorsey
    "The people are friendly the weather is awesome. The location the city environment overall conditions of the community and I love the neighborhood trolley.The people walking their dogs the trash service it’s just an overall great environment!"

  • Kermorsey

    "There are very few bag “poop” stations. The city should definitely do more to provide for its four legged friendly community."
  • Kristywallick

  • Debraschott
    "Our neighborhood has Moulton Meadows Park where children play soccer and neighbors play tennis and basketball. Lots of dog walking going on! Our block closes down one Sunday in the summer for a block party where we meet our neighbors and have pot luck. Halloween we go down to Oak Street to see and be seen in costumes."
