About This Home

As of September 2016

The burgeoning community of the Westside Costa Mesa is located at the edge of the Santa Ana River bed and a 2 mile bike ride to Newport and Huntington Beaches. Atop the bluff, 970 Governor St receives gentle ocean breezes nearly everyday. The interior of the home is impeccably maintained and exterior is delightfully landscaped. The massive backyard is perfect for active kids, entertaining guests… Or, doing just about anything you can imagine. Standing in the front yard, you’ll notice the beautiful quiet kind of street where kids could play basketball in the street.
