Behind the front gate and among the trees sits a peaceful storybook Laguna cottage. Beautifully maintained by its owner, this private, free-standing apartment is tucked away from the road and offers a tranquil setting to welcome you home. Through the front door, find a full kitchen equipped with a refrigerator and electric range, the bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower, and a cozy living space. Venture upstairs and find relaxation in the generously sized bedroom, complete with a washer/dryer and a wall air conditioning unit. Enjoy peaceful evenings on the front patio, or take advantage of this home's incredible location close to hiking and biking trails of Aliso Woods Canyon, Top of the World Elementary, and Alta Laguna Park. Set above the hustle and bustle of town, but just moments away from all Laguna has to offer- charming shops, great restaurants, world renowned art galleries, festivals and spectacular beaches- this adorable home is a gem!
