Priced to Sell!! An amazing opportunity for a buyer to build their dream home on this R-2 zoned, nearly 9,000 sq ft lot in the coveted Cliffhaven community within Newport Heights. The iconic "Red Barn" home with a peek-a-boo view of the ocean is on the market for the first time ever since it was built in 1953. This home is conveniently located across from Ensign Middle School, a short walk to Newport Harbor HS and nearby, award winning, Newport Heights Elementary. Located just minutes away from some of Orange Counties most sought after experiences--shopping and dining at Fashion Island, cruising a Duffy boat around Newport Harbor, taking a walk to the nearby parks and watching the sunset on Newport Harbor and Catalina Island or taking a quick 5 minute drive and enjoying a leisurely walk on Balboa Island or the Peninsula. It's hard to beat this location and when you add the ability to add a second unit, it makes this a wonderful opportunity.
