To own a 1926 historical beach home, fondly referred to as "The Mermaid House", in the small seaside village of Laguna Beach equates to owning a slice of an era, when Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. attended the ribbon-cutting dedication of Pacific Coast Highway. Still a picturesque small town with a handful of remaining quintessential cottages, this home embodies that everyday vacation life...a lazy afternoon lollygagging on the front porch, a nap in the sleeping loft (additional 100sf living space), or a short 3 block stroll to the sand, shopping or dinner. A great escape. The cottage is a meticulously crafted clapboard structure with beamed ceilings, original hardwood flooring, clawfoot tub, open living area, loft sleeping space, including outdoor dining and entertaining spaces on the property, embracing Southern California indoor/outdoor living. Solar (owned) keeps electric bills very low! Property is listed on Laguna Beach Historical Registry as "C" Rated.
