This premier property spans approximately 7,609 square feet on a 5,000-square-foot corner lot with 100 feet of ocean frontage and breathtaking panoramic views from Newport Pier to Balboa Pier and beyond. Three residential units with three short-term lodging permits and two commercial spaces, this exceptional five-unit offering blends coastal charm with modern luxury. The commercial spaces include the iconic “15th Street Surf Shop” retail store and an oceanfront restaurant currently under renovation, formerly known as “The Stuft Surfer”. The three separate residential units consist of a three bedroom residence, a newly built two bedroom residence with an office/bonus room, in addition to a newly constructed one bedroom unit. All three units hold short-term rental permits (SLPs), a rare and valuable asset in Newport Beach. This property is primed for exceptional income generation, with pro forma projections estimating $920,608 in annual gross revenue combined from short-term rentals and commercial leasing. A standout feature of this estate is its expansive 50x50-foot rooftop deck, one of the largest oceanfront decks on the Balboa Peninsula, offering unparalleled ocean and bay views with endless opportunities for entertainment and relaxation. 1504 W Oceanfront is not just a five-in-one compound; it’s a legacy property that delivers both immediate value and long-term returns in the highly coveted Newport Beach market.

The kitchens feature modern cabinetry (flat-panel and shaker), high-end stainless steel and integrated appliances, and contemporary countertops. Bathrooms are updated with modern vanities, glass showers, and stylish tiling. Flooring is new and modern, and lighting is recessed. The overall aesthetic is sleek and contemporary, indicating that all components are virtually new and meet current quality standards, aligning perfectly with the 'Excellent' condition criteria for a recently and extensively renovated property.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Income Generation Potential: A five-unit mixed-use property (3 residential, 2 commercial) with all residential units holding rare and valuable short-term rental permits, projected to generate $920,608 in annual gross revenue.
Unique & Expansive Rooftop Deck: Features a 50x50-foot rooftop deck, one of the largest oceanfront decks on the Balboa Peninsula, providing vast space for entertainment and relaxation with stunning views.
Diverse & Updated Unit Mix: Includes a mix of residential units (3-bed, newly built 2-bed, newly constructed 1-bed) and established commercial spaces (iconic surf shop, oceanfront restaurant), offering variety and modern amenities in residential units.
Legacy Property in Coveted Market: Positioned as a 'legacy property' in the highly coveted Newport Beach market, promising both immediate value and strong long-term returns due to its unique offering and location.

Cons

Age of Original Construction: Built in 1962, the property's age may imply potential for older infrastructure or systems in areas not explicitly stated as newly built or renovated, requiring ongoing maintenance considerations.
Active Commercial Renovation: One of the commercial spaces, an oceanfront restaurant, is 'currently under renovation,' which could lead to construction-related disruptions, potential delays, and an unknown timeline for full operational income.
High Management Complexity: Managing a five-unit mixed-use property with short-term residential rentals and commercial tenants (one under renovation) demands significant hands-on oversight or substantial professional management costs.
