    Rare fixer-upper opportunity in the highly desirable Cowan Heights neighborhood of unincorporated Orange County. Situated on a flat and highly usable 1.19-acre lot, this single-story residence offers exceptional potential for the right buyer to renovate, expand, or reimagine into a custom estate. Located at 9931 Highcliff Dr, the home features approximately 4,421 sq. ft. of living space with 6 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a private pool.
