Property is move-in ready.
Originally built in 1958, the property has undergone a comprehensive renovation likely within the last 5-15 years. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a center island, and the home includes updated systems like central air conditioning and recessed lighting. While the condition is move-in ready and well-maintained, the use of tile countertops and specific backsplash styles indicates the renovation is not within the 'Excellent' <5-year window.
Situated on a desirable corner lot in Eastside Costa Mesa, the property offers exceptional proximity to the Back Bay trails and the popular dining and retail corridor of 17th Street.
The home features a thoughtfully updated interior with vaulted beam ceilings, a chef’s kitchen with a large center island, and central air conditioning, blending mid-century charm with contemporary luxury.
The wraparound yard and gated front yard provide multiple private areas for entertaining and relaxation, maximizing the utility and privacy of the 6,000-square-foot corner lot.
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
At a list price of $2,185,000 for 1,647 square feet, the property commands a significant premium that may challenge buyers seeking more interior living space at this price point.
Despite its premium location and price, the property lacks any significant views, which may be a drawback for luxury buyers comparing it to nearby coastal or canyon-facing residences.
