Records show Karger bought his weekend home in June 1996 for $455,000.
Fred Karger, the first openly gay and Jewish candidate to seek the Republican nomination for president of the United States in 2012, has put his longtime Laguna Beach weekend home on the market.A white exterior with periwinkle trim, three decks and a Dutch door painted a cheerful orange distinguishes this three-bedroom, 1,451-square-foot cottage with three bathrooms.
Just a stone’s throw from the steps to Victoria Beach, the house — recently updated by Los Angeles-based interior designer James Lumsden — boasts panoramic views of the ocean and Catalina Island. One of its many vantage points is the combined living and dining room with its open-beam ceiling. A fireplace anchors the well-appointed space, which opens to the eat-in kitchen with custom blue cabinets, a tiled backsplash, Corian countertops and an under-counter wine cooler. The living area also extends out onto a dining deck.
Upstairs, there’s a larger deck off the primary bedroom whose en-suite bathroom features a tiled shower. There’s also a walk-in closet.The house has direct access to a two-car garage and a driveway, a plus in this neighborhood where parking is hard to come by. As a result, the famed public beach known for its “Pirate Tower” and a circular man-made pool doesn’t get crowded.
