Property Description
For the first time in nearly six decades, this iconic Laguna Beach estate, steeped in history and charm, graces the market. Known as the Hiel Ryder Residence, named after its original owner who commissioned its creation, this Mediterranean Revival masterpiece stands proudly on over 0.6 acres of prime North Laguna Beach real estate. Perched on an elevated site, the home offers breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the coastline, the sparkling Pacific Ocean, and the distant silhouette of Catalina Island. A grand, tree-lined driveway leads through private gates to a motor court, where the stately residence reveals itself in all its timeless elegance. Inside, the homes classic proportions and thoughtful layout create a harmonious blend of grandeur and livability. Sunlight pours through expansive windows, framing the panoramic views and infusing the home with warmth. The residence features two spacious living rooms, each with its own fireplace, formal and informal dining areas, a cozy family room, four main bedrooms (plus two additional guest bedrooms), two kitchens, and a serene master suite complete with an ocean-view veranda, a sitting area, a fireplace, and a generously sized dressing room. Original architectural details have been lovingly preserved, including oak hardwood floors, handcrafted wrought iron fixtures, intricately carved beams, stained glass accents, leaded windows, and sparkling crystal light fixtures. These elements, combined with the homes sprawling yet intimate layout, create a sense of timeless sophistication. Outside, the property is a true oasis. Mature ga
