About this property
Ideally positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac and set on a rare oversized lot, this home offers the privacy and space that are increasingly hard to find, all within the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. Step inside to an opened-up floor plan, where raised ceilings and a new architectural beam create a bright, airy flow through the main living spaces. The flexible layout offers 3 generously sized bedrooms, including a main-level primary suite, a separate guest suite, and a second primary upstairs. The upper level also features a large bonus room that can serve as a media room, playroom or flex space to suit your lifestyle. Well-maintained original hardwood floors are complemented by thoughtful updates, including fresh interior paint, new recessed lighting, new closet doors, newer windows and an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Outside, the expansive backyard, pool and mature landscaping offer abundant space to entertain, play or create your own personalized vision. With no through traffic, the street invites bike rides, evening walks and afternoons spent outside. Just minutes from the walking and biking trails of the Newport Back Bay and the restaurants and shops of 17th Street, the home is perfectly positioned within the heart of Eastside Costa Mesa.
