Bette Davis's Estate!

CANDLEQUEEN — Tue, 04 May 2021 13:27:14 GMT

I don't know how to post the photos, but if you go on Realtor dot com and type in the address which is 1991 Ocean Way, Laguna Beach, Cal. it will pull up!

The home is gorgeous and of course has been sold several times since she owned it, so its been updated and re-decorated, but what a beauty!!!!!

The views are spectacular!

STUNNING!!!!! The interior is not really my style but, with THAT view, I could make it work. I'd be outside on the deck areas most of the day anyway.

I watched Laguna Beach when it aired years ago and fell in love then with the town and the scenery.

Sorry ladies, I snapped it up... At only 20 million, I thought it was a steal...

A truly magnificent estate that has so much potential and comes with a guest house. The predictably bland decor, to me, is so very unfortunate, but in the right hands, this house, with all its beautiful details, could be exquisite.

Wow, thanks @CANDLEQUEEN ! Who wouldn't love to see where she lived (and "stormed", ha). Quite a bit splashier than some of her New England abodes, interestingly. I'm going to take my time and go over this goodie!

Oh dear, what to do... So sorry @Puppy Lips but as noted, I've already landed it and already have a house guest... Paid cash and already have the decorators looking things over...

As soon as I saw the outside of the house, the views, location I was sold. Absolutely spectacular and stunning without even entering the inside. I would love decorating the interior with my taste of elegance and fromal but also comfortable and inviting!!!!!

@spiderw Oh the fun one could have decorating that place to their own specifications... Of course, an unrestricted budget to do so would be essential...

stevieb!

With an unlimited budget, meaning lots and lots of money,one could design and style in so many ways. I am not a minimalist and love wall art , window dressings, and decor all about. I'm ready to go at it! Ah, to dream.

@stevieb Well congratulations! I am sure the decorators will have a field day with it. As for myself, I never understood the appeal of all white walls, so that would have been my first call too. Second call, like you, would be to relatives to come over so they can be jelly of my new home!

The only thing you cannot change about a house is the location!
