The Gumball House – A Laguna Beach Treasure with Endless Potential! Some homes hold more than memories—they hold stories, and The Gumball House is one of them. Once owned by a renowned collector of penny arcades and gumball machines, this South Laguna Village cottage is a rare find, waiting for the next owner to bring it back to life. With great bones, OCEAN VIEWS, and timeless charm, it’s the perfect canvas for a dream coastal retreat. This two-story, 3-bedroom fixer is full of character, featuring vaulted ceilings, original wood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace for cozy evenings. Expansive windows flood the home with natural light, highlighting its unique architecture and inviting in ocean breezes. The private patio offers a quiet escape, while the ocean-view balcony is the perfect place to watch the sun dip below the horizon. With a flexible floor plan, the lower level can be locked off as a guest suite, rental unit, or creative space—endless possibilities await. Downstairs offers two bedrooms, a walk-in closet in the primary bedroom, lots of storage plus an Indoor Laundry Area. Whether you’re looking to restore a piece of Laguna’s past or create a modern beachside sanctuary, this home is an incredible opportunity in one of the most sought-after coastal communities. Just a few blocks from the beach, this home is within walking distance to the sand and surf and just a short drive or trolley ride to Laguna’s vibrant main village. Spend your mornings at a charming café, enjoy fresh seafood at local favorites, or explore the art galleries, boutiques, and world-famous Sawdust Festival. Take a scenic stroll through Heisler Park, soak in breathtaking sunsets, or experience the magic of the Pageant of the Masters. Opportunities like this don’t come often. If you’ve been looking for a home with soul, story, and spectacular views, The Gumball House is ready for its next chapter—could it be yours?
