The two spacious bedrooms have closet organizers for efficient clothes storage. The cozy private and tranquil outdoor space has drought friendly landscaping and room to enjoy warm summer nights. This home is close to the best Costa Mesa has to offer including Triangle Square, shopping, restaurants, and proximity to the 55 & 405 freeways.
