After just 82 days on the market, this Laguna Beach mansion has a new owner. This is an exceptionally short time for a property listed at over $100 million. The final closing price was a whopping $82,569,990, making it the second highest sale ever made in Orange County. In fact, it is the highest Orange County sale in a non-gated community, per First American Title. The spectacular 100 Rockledge residence was sold, after being listed by Meital Taub and Jill Lockhart with Livel Real Estate.
There are a few reasons why this home was so coveted – even with such a high-end price tag. The property was originally commissioned in the 1970s, and the historic preservation is evident in every corner of the home. Designed by architect Fred Briggs, this custom residence was built to highlight the oceanfront location.
Walls of glass frame panoramic views of Catalina Island and the shores of Laguna Beach. At the heart of the home’s jaw-dropping design is an oversized rotating bed beneath an operable ceiling, offering the rare luxury of falling asleep beneath the stars and waking to the endless Pacific.
With more than an acre of land in this coveted stretch of Laguna Beach, the property offers a level of space and privacy that is virtually unheard of in such a coveted coastal location. Including over 2,000 square feet of oceanfront terraces, the home takes Southern California indoor-outdoor living to breathtaking new heights.
Beyond the architecture itself, the resort-style amenities are what truly set this residence apart from other luxury homes. A fully appointed wellness retreat features a fitness studio, sauna, steam shower, and tranquil rock waterfall, creating a private sanctuary dedicated to relaxation and rejuvenation. This is zen. This is coastal living at its most extraordinary, and the buyer knew this immediately.
