Condition Rating
Tear down
The property, built in 1966, is explicitly described as 'gutted inside' with 'interior demo/removal of Lead Based Paint and Asbestos' completed. The images confirm a completely stripped interior, showing exposed studs, subflooring, and no functional living spaces, kitchen, or bathrooms. The pool is also empty and requires significant work. In its current state, the property is unlivable and requires a complete interior rebuild, aligning with the 'tear-down' criteria where the structure is beyond repair for immediate occupancy and its value is based on the land and redevelopment potential.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location & Premium Lot: Situated on a premium lot and street within the highly desirable Dover Shores neighborhood of Newport Beach, offering significant intrinsic value.
Custom Development Opportunity: Presents a rare opportunity to build a custom 'dream home' or complete a significant renovation, providing a blank canvas for a discerning buyer.
Environmental Remediation Completed: Interior demolition and removal of lead-based paint and asbestos have been completed and certified, de-risking the initial phases of construction.
Private Backyard with Pool: Features a private backyard with an existing pool and no direct overlooking properties, enhancing potential lifestyle and future home value.
Flexible Seller Financing: The seller is open to offering financing options, which can provide valuable flexibility and incentive for a buyer undertaking a large-scale project.
Cons
Gutted Condition / Extensive Renovation Required: The property is currently gutted inside, necessitating substantial and costly construction to make it habitable and complete the vision.
Significant Additional Investment: Beyond the high purchase price, buyers must be prepared for considerable additional capital outlay for construction, design, and finishes.
Lack of Views: The property does not offer any notable views, which can be a disadvantage in a coastal market like Newport Beach where views often command a premium.
