Two Laguna Beach Listings Worth a Closer Look: On the Sand and Above the Village
What luxury homes are for sale in Laguna Beach right now? The Aaronson Group represents two distinct Laguna Beach listings: 1585 S. Coast Hwy #47, a remodeled oceanfront condo on the sand at $3,495,000, and 2155 Temple Hills Drive, a view estate with approved plans to build at $6,500,000.
Laguna Beach rarely offers two properties this different at the same time. One sits directly on the sand inside a private gated community in the heart of the village. The other crowns one of the city’s most coveted hillsides, paired with Design Review Board approved plans for an award-winning new home.
Both represent the kind of coastal Orange County opportunity The Aaronson Group has specialized in since 1986. Here is a closer look at each, including full video tours.
On the Sand: 1585 S. Coast Hwy #47, Laguna Sands
Few addresses in Laguna Beach sit directly on the sand. 1585 S. Coast Hwy #47 does. Located inside the gated Laguna Sands community, this fully remodeled two-bedroom, two-bath residence offers direct beach access and a turnkey, move-in-ready interior.
Designed for the coast.
Floor-to-ceiling La Cantina sliders open the living space to the water, while Italian porcelain countertops and designer baths carry a clean, contemporary finish throughout. Residents enjoy a newly renovated oceanfront pool, two community terrace decks with sweeping coastline views, and elevator access to the parking garage.
In the heart of the village.
The residence sits next door to the Surf & Sand Resort and is walkable to downtown Laguna Beach’s shops, galleries, and restaurants. For buyers tracking the Laguna Beach oceanfront market, gated, remodeled, on-the-sand inventory at this price point is rare.

Above the Village: 2155 Temple Hills Drive
Perched near the top of Temple Hills, one of Laguna Beach’s most established hillside neighborhoods, 2155 Temple Hills Drive offers panoramic views of the Pacific, Catalina Island, and the sunset from nearly every room. The current five-bedroom, seven-bath residence spans approximately 4,800 square feet on a 0.56-acre parcel.
A home built for the view.
An open main level features soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, and walls of glass that frame the coastline. The chef’s kitchen is equipped with Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Bosch appliances and centers on a grand island with white granite. Flexible spaces include a soundproofed media and game room, a lower level with two ocean-view primary suites, an office, and an exercise room.
A rare path to build.
The offering includes Design Review Board approved plans for an award-winning 7,500-square-foot new home by Anders Lasater Architects. That concept, The Sunset Duet & Sunrise Duet, was recognized in the Unbuilt Category at the 2025 AIA Orange County Design Awards. Buyers can live in the current home or move forward with a celebrated, approved design. For anyone weighing renovation against new construction in Laguna Beach, approved plans remove one of the most time-consuming steps in the process.
