Located at the end of a highly coveted horseshoe street in Eastside Costa Mesa, this expanded single-level residence offers a rare blend of space, style, and turnkey living in one of the neighborhood’s most desirable pockets. With its wide frontage and spacious layout, the property exudes a sense of openness and privacy that’s hard to come by in this sought-after enclave.
Hardly a window has been left untouched in this thoughtfully renovated home, where timeless design meets modern comfort. Inside, the floor plan flows seamlessly from the formal living room—bathed in natural light—to a beautifully updated kitchen featuring a large center island with barstool seating, granite countertops, gas range, and custom cabinetry. The kitchen opens to the backyard, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.
The home features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, including a spacious bonus room with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a custom-built entertainment center. Additional interior highlights include an indoor bar, dedicated laundry room, and a walk-in hallway closet for added storage.
Enjoy two distinct outdoor entertaining spaces in the wraparound backyard—perfect for al fresco dining, lounging, or summer celebrations. The formal dining room, accented with wood-paneled walls, offers a warm, character-filled space for hosting.
Major system upgrades include updated plumbing, electrical, and a newer roof. Additional features include newer vinyl fencing and gates, a spacious driveway, and a two-car garage.
Set on an expansive 8,600+ square foot lot with room to grow, this is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to plant roots in Eastside Costa Mesa without compromise.
