About This Home

As of March 2025

This scenic large elevated homesite with 144’ of picturesque ocean, sunset, Catalina views is newly rejuvenated by renowned architect Gregg Abel and Root and Stone landscaping. The home is a mid-century modern single level, now with new chef’s kitchen including Wolf/Sub-Zero appliances, custom designer cabinets, bar island seating, and stone counters. The kitchen and bar island flow into an open concept living area with vaulted ceilings, crown molding. The new baths and re-engineered wood floors throughout add to the upgrades. There are generous closets, additional storage space in garage, with adjacent separate storage bunker, and more stash room in attic. Three sizeable new decks are accessed by new folding Cantina doors which really expand the indoor floor space for easy indoor/outdoor living. You will love the new private hot tub open to ocean view. New roof and landscaped backyard, new drainage, and even formal pre-approval ADU plans add to the value. Big 510 sq ft 2 car garage, with driveway for 2 more cars, possible adjacent golf cart parking. This gem is steps down to fabulous Crescent Bay beach below and steps up to the favored endless Dartmoor trail. Heisler park and downtown are a stroll away. Location next to Emerald Bay makes access to Crystal Cove restaurants, shops, Newport Beach, and airport all easy. Must see to appreciate, this one won’t last.
