The Laugesen Team PERFORMANCE DRIVEN, INSIGHTFUL WITH A PROVEN ABILITY TO ACHIEVE AND EXCEED GOALS IN HIGH PRESSURE ENVIRONMENTS

As a lifetime resident of the peninsula, it would only make sense that Denise’s expertise resides in her backyard. Specializing in both new construction and existing homes in Hillsborough, Burlingame and San Mateo, Denise celebrates over 25 years in real estate sales. Initially with Fox & Carskadon, and later as a principal of Castilleja Fine Homes, Inc. a luxury home development company, Denise Laugesen understands what professionalism, integrity, commitment and ‘within budget’ truly mean. Her real estate experience, business success and banking background has placed her on all sides of a property transaction which means a more comprehensive, strategic approach for her clients whether they are buying, selling or investing. Her charismatic personality and positive attitude in any market is refreshing. The professional relationships she has cultivated over the years with construction and remodeling contractors; interior and exterior designers; everyday maintenance craftsman; and highly-specialized artisans has evolved into a more than hearty contact list. This list is like a virtual concierge service that past clients have found to be an extremely helpful, valuable, and money saving benefit of choosing Denise as their real estate consultant. Denise is very excited to share this passion and experience with her daughter Cortney, who is an integral part of The Laugesen Team and is no stranger to the real estate business. Cortney Laugesen is a second generation Bay Area Realtor raised on the Peninsula. She finished her education in San Diego and joined her mother in 2009. Cortney is committed to building her business through clear communication, extensive knowledge of her local market, and attention to every detail. Cortney is passionate about her real estate business and is a key contributor to the success of The Laugesen Team .She has been raised in the business and has been selling luxury homes since her early 20’s. She loves every aspect of the business and especially enjoys working with buyers and sellers to place them in their ultimate dream home. Cortney’s commitment to being the best continues to help The Laugesen Team remain on top! The Laugesen Team is led by Denise Laugesen (DRE # 01011089), a REALTOR with KW Advisors (DRE # 01906450).

Sometimes selling a home is about much more than real estate.

For Patricia, selling her Burlingame home meant preparing for a major life transition: leaving the community she knew and moving closer to her children out-of-state.

Our role was to make that transition as seamless as possible.
From beginning to end, Denise stayed closely by her side, making sure the details were handled, the process kept moving, and Patricia never had to wonder what came next.

1612 Easton sold quickly for $3,150,000. But Patricia’s words about the experience mean even more to us: “I never had a moment of concern.”

That is the standard we strive for, especially when a real estate decision is intertw**ed with a much bigger life change.

Luxury isn’t defined by one extraordinary feature.
It’s what happens when all the details work together.

Now beautifully finished and staged, 18 Bel Aire Lane offers a closer look at the design language and craftsmanship that define Bel Aire Heights, from soaring, light-filled living spaces and walls of glass to custom millwork, thoughtfully selected finishes, and an effortless connection between indoors and out.

Nearly 4,000 square feet of living space includes five bedrooms and two primary suites, one on each level, creating exceptional flexibility. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen pairs statement-making design with premium Thermador appliances, a built-in espresso machine, w**e refrigerator, and generous spaces made for gathering.

And then there are the details that are harder to capture on a specification sheet: the way natural light moves through the home, the scale of the rooms, the views beyond the windows, and the sense of openness you experience moving from one space to the next.

18 Bel Aire Lane is complete and ready to be experienced.
Come see the details for yourself.

Some of the relationships we value most are the ones that grow from one move to the next.

Our journey with Teresa and her family began with the purchase of their first home. We helped connect them with trusted contractors to transform that fixer-upper into a place uniquely their own, and remained a resource as their needs evolved.

When it was time for their next chapter, they called us again.

We helped them navigate a fiercely competitive market to secure their next home, then turned our attention to selling 697 Vanessa Drive in San Mateo. With thoughtful preparation, strategic positioning, and a focused launch, the home sold in just seven days for $2,200,000—setting a neighborhood record at $1,200 per square foot.

Three transactions. Two major moves. And a relationship that has continued through every chapter.

Because our goal isn’t simply to be there for one transaction. It’s to understand where our clients are going, bring the right people and strategy to the table, and remain a trusted resource whenever the next move comes.

This Sunday, we’re opening the doors to two residences and inviting you to experience this new San Mateo community in two different ways.

At 18 Bel Aire Lane, step inside a beautifully finished, move-in-ready home and experience firsthand the design, craftsmanship, scale, and indoor-outdoor living we’ve been sharing throughout the summer.

Then, visit 58 Bel Aire Lane, close behind in its construction journey, for another look at what’s taking shape within this intimate collection of just 19 luxury homes.

Together, the two offer a unique opportunity to see where Bel Aire Heights is today and where it’s headed next.

And there’s still something photos and renderings can’t fully capture: the setting. Come take in the views, walk the neighborhood, and experience what it feels like to be here.

OPEN HOUSE

18 Bel Aire Lane + 58 Bel Aire Lane

When you buy new construction matters almost as much as what you buy.

At Bel Aire Heights, homes are taking shape at different stages throughout this intimate 19-home community. Some are complete. Others are well underway. And some offer the opportunity to get involved much earlier in the journey.

That timing can make a meaningful difference.
The earlier you step in, the more possibilities there may be to influence select finishes and details. As construction progresses, those decisions are made, homes move closer to completion, and available opportunities throughout the community continue to evolve.

We’ve already watched 18 Bel Aire Lane go from rendering to reality. Now, the homes around it are following.

If Bel Aire Heights has been on your radar, this is the time to come see what’s available, understand where each residence is in the building process, and find the opportunity that fits your vision.

A great network can help you find opportunities. Knowing how to put that network to work for your clients is where the difference is made.

For Aditi and family, that meant thoughtfully selected opportunities, including homes they would never have found on the open market. When they found their dream home, it meant moving with speed, precision, and a strategy designed to make their offer stand out.

During the transaction, it meant anticipating issues, protecting their interests, and preserving leverage when it mattered. And after the keys were handed over, it meant continuing to show up when unexpected challenges arose.

Our relationships throughout Hillsborough, Burlingame, San Mateo, and across the Peninsula have been built over decades. We believe their greatest value is not simply who we know, but what those relationships allow us to do for our clients.

As Aditi put it: “People show up for Denise, which means they show up for her clients when it matters most.”

That is exactly the kind of relationship we want every client to experience.

From rendering to reality.

After months of sharing the vision for Bel Aire Heights through architectural renderings, construction updates, aerial footage, and glimpses of what’s taking shape above San Mateo, 18 Bel Aire Lane is complete.

And now, you can step inside.
Nearly 4,000 square feet of brand-new living space unfolds across five bedrooms, including dual primary suites, with open living and entertaining spaces, a beautifully appointed kitchen with Thermador appliances, a built-in espresso machine and w**e refrigerator, mountain and water views, and a three-car garage with EV charging.

Beyond the front door, the rest of Bel Aire Heights is coming to life around it. Neighboring residences are rising at different stages of construction as this intimate collection of just 19 luxury homes becomes more tangible by the day.

You’ve seen the renderings.
You’ve watched the progress.
Now, come experience the reality.

The best smart homes we walk through lately don't look smart at all. No panel by the front door, no speaker grilles on the ceiling, no screen mounted where a piece of art should be.

Everything is just built in. Lighting that shifts with the sun, temperature that adjusts before you'd notice it was warm, security that doesn't look like security. The tech that costs the most is usually the tech you never see.

Atherton has held this title for years, and it has nothing to do with square footage...

It is acreage, privacy, and a level of discretion that does not show up on a spec sheet. The kind of wealth that has never needed to announce itself.

One extraordinary setting. Four very different opportunities to call it home.

At Bel Aire Heights, buyers aren’t simply choosing between floor plans. The homes currently available represent different stages of the new-construction journey and different ways to find your place within this intimate 19-home community.

> 18 Bel Aire Lane offers the excitement of brand-new construction nearing completion.
> 58 Bel Aire Lane offers the opportunity to step in before every decision has been made.
> 9 Bel Aire Lane pairs exceptional design with a premier hillside setting and panoramic views.
> And 118 Rosewood Lane offers the chance to begin earlier in the journey and imagine what your future home could become.

Different homes. Different possibilities. One remarkable community above San Mateo. Which one feels most like you?

The best way to decide may be to experience Bel Aire Heights in person. We’d love to walk the site with you, show you the available homesites and residences, and help you understand what’s possible at each stage of construction.
