About This Home

As of September 2022

Sitting high on the bluffs of Costa Mesa. This three bedroom, two full bath home is perfect for a family or investor with 2 large bedrooms upstairs and a full suite downstairs. Over 1400 sq ft of living area, the upper level has vaulted ceilings, 3 skylights, a gas burning fireplace, dining area, a spacious kitchen area and balcony for morning coffee. The kitchen is painted in a beautiful greige color with new solid surface counter and backsplash, new stainless sink and faucet. The unit has a private patio downstairs off the bedroom and an oversized attached two car garage for all your toys. The Pacific Bluffs community is self-managed, and the dues are very low. The community is just steps from Fairview Park, which hosts concerts all summer. Talbert nature preserve is close which means miles of walking trails, access to Sheep Hills BMX park and the beach is just over a mile. Shopping and freeways are easily accessible – this home has it all!
