Property is new construction or fully renovated.

The chef's kitchen features top-tier appliances (Sub-Zero, Thermador, Miele), and the interior boasts modern wide-plank hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and updated bathrooms. The systems, including air conditioning and a steam shower, along with the pristine resort-style backyard, indicate a property in mint condition requiring no immediate maintenance.
The expansive 12,960 sq ft corner lot features a stunning pool with fire/water features, a covered cabana with a fireplace, and a half-court basketball court, offering a premier entertainment experience.
This rare single-story Spanish hacienda includes a dedicated gym and a separate guest/bonus suite above the garage, providing excellent flexibility for multi-generational living or a private home office.
The chef-inspired kitchen is outfitted with premium appliances, including Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Viking cooktop, and Miele dishwashers, catering to the highest standards of luxury and functionality.
Despite its premium location and $6.995M price point in Newport Beach, the property lacks the ocean, bay, or city light views often expected by buyers in this luxury segment.
The listing agent is also the owner and seller, which requires transparent disclosure and may influence the negotiation dynamics for potential buyers.
