About this home

Centered in one of Newport Beach's oldest neighborhoods, convenient, unique, and filled with character, walking close to 3 top-rated schools. Overlooking the harbor are beautiful vistas from Cliff Drive Park, a quick 1 blocks away; a jewel with real character and Newport Beach tradition. Easily expandable to accommodate a new owner, with gracious front and rear yards and a 2 car garage, the property also has alley access, and room for two more vehicles off-street. 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a formal dining room, and inviting den with French doors and a second fireplace, there is a separate music room (easily converted to a 4th bedroom or home office), with its own front Dutch door entry. This is an equity seller looking to pass the home to a qualified buyer. Very well priced, based on recent comparables. Offers must be accompanied by a pre-qual letter, and proof of funds.
