About This Home

As of March 2025

Welcome to an incredibly well-appointed 5-bedroom home in the heart of Mesa Verde’s Lower Bird Streets neighborhood! 2016 Phalarope is located in one of the most desired, quiet inner track locations with a large pie-shaped lot. Enter through a modern steel pivot door to be greeted with soaring cathedral-style ceilings in this tri-level model, with an exceptionally open floor plan through the lower levels. The living room features beam-accented ceilings, a large centrally located fireplace, and huge windows that stream in a significant amount of natural light. The adjacent kitchen is truly a chef’s dream, with a large central storage island capped with gorgeous porcelain countertops. The French oak cabinetry provides a rich and warm feel, and the kitchen features high-end appliances, including a professional built-in cabinet depth refrigerator, a large 48” stainless steel gas range, and a pull-out microwave drawer. There is a built-in casual dining area with banquet seating, and it looks down to the comfy family room. The family room features another fireplace accented with tile and modern touches. A small storage area could be converted to a wet bar, and the room’s main feature is the large bifold door set that opens to the expansive backyard and pool area. One secondary bedroom is downstairs, perfect for an office, kids' playroom, or in-law suite with a beautiful ¾ bath directly adjacent. The downstairs laundry room has been moved inside and has ample storage and space,
The three-car garage is an absolute game changer for those with storage needs.
The upstairs features three secondary bedrooms that share a gorgeous hall bath with a beautiful skylight and a large bathtub/shower wrapped in modern tile. Down the hall, the primary bedroom is expansive with dual closets, one of which is a large walk-in closet with enormous storage. The primary bathroom features dual vanities, a makeup mirror area, and a modern accented dual-head oversized shower for a true spa-like experience.
The backyard has a built-in BBQ bar and area and features a large pool perfect for the Costa Mesa summer. Pool surface is aged and likely needs to be resurfaced. Pool equipment in working order but should be inspected. Additional storage or RV storage is possible on a large side yard. Your Mesa Verde oasis awaits! Interior is truly turnkey and ready to go!!
