About This Home
As of June 2023Welcome to this charming turnkey home in Westside Costa Mesa's Freedom Homes near Canyon Park. The long-time owners have meticulously updated the home during their stewardship, making it ready for your enjoyment for many years to come. With forced air heat and AC, a newer roof, newly remodeled bathroom, newer kitchen, new landscaping, floors, windows, and much more, you can move right in. There's even a gas fireplace, which is a welcomed and rare upgrade to these homes. Of the two orientations of the Freedom Home floor plan, this "bedrooms along the side" plan is the preferred orientation, as there are more expansion options to the rear for a larger living room and kitchen. The original carport has been enclosed into a 1 car garage and there's ample room to the side to expand the garage, or even park a small boat. With plans to stay much longer, the current owners recently spared no expense on the professionally-designed and planted front and back yards. There are inter-locking pavers surrounding the home for an elevated look and a more flexible design over the more permanent concrete equivalent. If you require a second bathroom one day, there's a relatively simple way to add one without expanding the footprint. With Semi-Tropic Wines, the Wayfarer, MoonGoat, 2145, and El Ranchito all a short walk away, you'll have the Westside's best on your doorstep, and don't forget about beautiful Canyon Park and its tranquility even closer! Pack your bags and move in by summer!
