About This Home
As of August 2023181 Costa Mesa is an alluring turn-key property that is primed for any number of living situations. A large, landscaped front yard welcomes you to this immaculate property. Located in the heart of Costa Mesa, the two detached homes on a single 6,000+/- sq/ft lot offer opportunities abound. The single level lower home contains three bedrooms, and two full baths. Sliding glass doors open to a gated, large side patio. The updated kitchen opens to a great room where natural light pours in. The upper two bedroom, two bath unit sits above the four (4!) car garage. Both units have newer, high-end finishes and appliances (including HVAC). Both properties are currently rented out and provide a strong rent roll. The owner has plans for adding an ADU, utilizing a bonus space in the garage. The property is in the ‘sweet-spot’ of Costa Mesa. A block to the triangle, 17th street, restaurants, and shopping. Located within the enviable Newport-Mesa School district.
