Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from March 19, 2024
MAJOR PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Best value in East Side Costa Mesa! Completely re-imagined, renovated and expanded, this charming Eastside Costa Mesa home offers the ambiance of a beach bungalow in a decidedly upscale single-story design. With meticulous attention to detail, the residence tells a story of skilled craftsmanship and refined aesthetics that unfolds throughout. Reduced down to one wall and rebuilt with the highest-quality construction techniques and materials, the virtually brand-new home harmonizes with its quiet neighborhood surroundings and offers enviable curb appeal. Two separate living areas enable the design to meet the needs of a variety of lifestyles, including singles and couples, families with children, multi-generational situations, and those who seek the advantages of adding an ADU. Four bedrooms and 3.5 baths include an en-suite guest bedroom and two that share a bath. The expansive primary suite exudes sophistication in approximately 500 s.f., allowing room for a large walk-in closet, and an opulent bath with rift-sawn white oak cabinetry, two sinks, stone countertops and designer tilework. Two white oak Dutch doors and large windows create an indoor/outdoor vibe that complements all living areas. An enormous 800-square-foot great room hosts a gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops, waterfall island, custom cabinetry, a farm sink, and Thermador appliances including a built-in refrigerator and a wine unit. The great room flows to a dining area and a family room with linear fireplace, while the separate living room is warmed by a handsome herringbone fireplace. Barn doors reveal a home office and sliding glass doors lead to a backyard trellis-covered patio with built-in stainless BBQ. High ceilings with tongue-and-groove finish in most rooms, solid French oak flooring throughout, high-end lighting and plumbing fixtures, Emtek door hardware, Terrazzo flooring in one bath, and dramatic 3,000 pound solid-wood beam spanning the great room ceiling. Behind the scenes, new central air-conditioning, dual sound systems, new plumbing and electrical systems are featured, while a large designer laundry room includes a new LG washer and dryer set. The two-car garage boasts epoxy flooring and a $10,000 solid-panel door. Grounds extend about 7,500 s.f. and display new and mature landscaping with lighting. Simply one of the finest homes in Costa Mesa!
