About this home

Some homes are about the house. This one is about the way it makes you feel. At 2653 Nido Way, the ocean is part of everyday life. Sweeping views stretch from Catalina and San Clemente Island to the Dana Point bluffs and up the coastline, creating a backdrop that feels expansive, dramatic, and constantly changing with the light. A unique orientation gives the home an unexpected level of privacy, even as it opens completely to the coastline. Arrival begins in a tranquil European-inspired courtyard with a waterfall and an immediate sense of calm. From the patio, your eye is drawn straight through the home to the Pacific beyond, while the courtyard itself offers an intimate setting for morning coffee, casual meals, or drinks with friends. The remodeled main residence features an expansive primary suite complete with its own living area, office space, and fireplace, along with a large secondary bedroom and bath that can double as a suite. Custom cabinetry throughout, updated bathrooms, central air conditioning, a standing-seam metal roof, and a second fireplace in the living room add to the home's sense of comfort and refinement. The kitchen features high-end appliances, complemented by a separate walk-in butler's pantry with generous storage and a wine fridge. Two oversized ocean-facing decks - one on each level - offer ample space for dining, entertaining, and lounging. The upper deck is enclosed in glass to preserve the uninterrupted views, keeping the coastline front and center from both levels. A separate one-bedroom, one-bath guest suite provides privacy and flexibility for visitors, while a two-car garage adds everyday convenience. Peaceful, private, and designed around the view, Nido Way offers multiple places to gather, retreat, and take in one of Laguna Beach's most dramatic coastal perspectives.
