Undeniably chic and effortlessly sexy. Welcome to 1372 Morningside Drive — an architectural gem that embodies the essence of Laguna Beach with its bold artistic form, elevated lifestyle, and biophilic design. Designed by acclaimed Laguna Beach architect and former Pageant of the Masters producer Don Williamson, this one-of-a-kind residence is a tribute to creative vision, structural integrity, and timeless coastal style. Set on a rare 1/3-acre street-to-street lot in Rancho Laguna, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom masterpiece sits atop 24 bedrock-anchored caissons, offering commanding ocean, canyon, and hillside views from nearly every angle. Designed with expansion in mind, the roof is engineered to support a future second story, and ADU potential abounds — yet the current single-level layout lives large with an open, airy floorplan and soaring 16-foot ceilings in the living room. From the moment you arrive, custom artistry reveals itself: solid teak railings, a private elevator with teak and rusted metal doors, an atrium entry wrapped in quartzite and wood, and meticulously landscaped terraces dotted with mature Protea and Strawberry trees. The design details are exquisite—rift-cut oak cabinetry, solid walnut floors, and artisan-crafted accents throughout. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dual full-size ovens, Miele speed oven, cooktop, hood, dishwasher, and a Kohler ceramic sink set into a quartzite island designed for both function and conversation. Wake to sunrises over the hills in the vaulted-ceiling primary suite, complete with a custom walk-in closet and spa-like bath adorned with a motorized skylight, walnut vanity, and an oversized shower framed in Starfire glass. The secondary bedroom, bathrooms, and even the garage reflect the same level of craftsmanship—blending form and function with flair. With motorized window shades, a custom bar with quartzite and mahogany finishes, multiple decks, and unmatched indoor-outdoor flow, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle. This is Vintage Laguna at its finest: storied, soulful, and utterly unforgettable.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
