About This Home
Beautifully reimagined from top to bottom, this single-level California Ranch pairs a fresh luxury remodel with the warmth, character, and indoor-outdoor lifestyle that define Eastside Costa Mesa. Set on a desirable corner lot beneath a mature eucalyptus tree, the four-bedroom, two-bath home welcomes you with established landscaping, manicured privacy hedges along the right side of the property, and a relaxed coastal feel just moments from Newport Beach and the Back Bay.
Inside, the open great room makes an immediate impression with vaulted plank-style shiplap ceilings, exposed beams, abundant natural light, and a fireplace. New luxury vinyl wood flooring and baseboards run throughout, while the completely remodeled kitchen features quartz countertops, new custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a new Frigidaire refrigerator with water and ice maker. A reconstructed oversized island anchors the kitchen, dining, and living areas, with contrasting shiplap detailing that complements the ceiling above and adds another layer of architectural character.
French doors extend the living space outdoors to a spacious backyard with a patio and pergola, creating an inviting setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, and relaxing. The wraparound corner lot also offers a generous side yard, gated front yard, and planter boxes ready for vegetables, herbs, and flowers.
Additional highlights include a new electrical panel, central air conditioning, recessed lighting, an attached two-car garage, and epoxy garage flooring. Ideally located in the heart of Eastside Costa Mesa, the home is minutes from Upper Newport Bay trails, 17th Street dining and shopping, neighborhood parks, and the beaches and amenities of Newport Beach. Located within the Newport-Mesa Unified School District and near Woodland Elementary, Ensign Intermediate, and Newport Harbor High School, 300 Esther Street offers a compelling combination of fresh design, established neighborhood character, and an exceptional coastal location.
