About This Home
As of May 2026Tucked on one of Eastside Costa Mesa's most sought-after interior streets, this classic white picket charmer sits in the heart of the Mariners Elementary neighborhood, where tree-lined blocks and a true sense of community make every day feel like home. The main residence spans 2,537 square feet across four bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and rich hardwood floors that set a warm, welcoming tone from the moment you step inside. A whitewashed brick fireplace anchors the great room, while walls of windows and glass doors bathe the living spaces in natural light and blur the line between indoors and out. Three bedrooms are conveniently situated on the main level, with the private, primary suite occupying the entire second floor. Out back, the yard is built for the way Southern California was meant to be lived, a resort-style pool and spa, a fire pit for cool coastal evenings, and room to gather, play, and unwind. Alley access leads to a generous two-car garage, that includes a 690-square-foot guest house which offers a spacious bedroom and living area with a full bath, an ideal setup for extended family, visiting guests, or a dedicated home office. Classic Eastside character. Flexible, move-in-ready layout. An address that rarely comes available.
