Description

Located in the Freedom Homes, one of Westside Costa Mesa’s most desirable neighborhoods, this expanded single-level California bungalow sits on a highly sought-after 7,200 square foot square lot. Recently withdrawn from the market to complete a full refresh, the home now features new flooring and baseboards throughout, new lighting, fresh interior paint, updated landscaping, and professional staging, and it looks amazing. The layout includes 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, including a generously expanded primary suite with a private, updated en-suite bath and direct access to the tropical-style backyard. The bright, functional kitchen includes a large picture window overlooking the backyard. The living space was significantly expanded with the addition of a spacious great room centered around a large wood-burning fireplace, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. An attached oversized two-car garage was also added, providing great parking and storage. Freedom Homes is known for its oversized lots, mid-century charm, and mature trees. This home is just two streets from the entrance of Canyon Park, a 35-acre nature preserve with scenic trails that lead directly to the beach. This is a rare opportunity to own a turn-key Freedom Home in the “nectar zone!”
