About this home

SELLER CONCESSIONS OFFERED TO MAKE THE HOUSE YOUR OWN! Please inquire for more details. This exceptional home offers the best of coastal living, perfectly situated on a quiet interior cul-de-sac in one of South HB’s most desirable neighborhoods. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be charmed by the stunning curb appeal and welcoming private courtyard with a tranquil fountain, leading to a solid wood custom arched entry door. Inside, the spacious living room features recessed lighting and a beautiful fireplace, setting a warm and inviting tone. The chef’s kitchen boasts newer self-closing cabinetry with custom panel slide glides, leathered granite countertops, hammered copper farmhouse sink with designer fixtures, glass mosaic backsplash, and under/upper cabinet lighting. It opens seamlessly to the permitted expanded family room, creating a perfect flow for entertaining and daily living. Bamboo wood floors with travertine inlays carry you toward the backyard, where sliding doors invite you to enjoy true indoor/outdoor living. The covered patio and expansive entertainment space overlook the saltwater pool with a baja shelf, grotto, waterfalls, and fire bowls, plus a solar-powered palapa with built-in BBQ and outdoor TVs. The home’s bathrooms are equally impressive - the hall bath features travertine finishes, stone moldings, a bench seat, custom shampoo niche, stone vessel sink, wall-to-wall mirror, and a luxury shower with body sprays, handheld sprayer, and floating fixtures. The primary suite has been reimagined by removing an interior wall (formerly the 4th bedroom) to create a true retreat. The spa-inspired primary bath includes electronically heated stone floors, a Jacuzzi tub with illuminated waterfall fixture, and a separate custom stone shower with granite seat. Additional upgrades include a tankless water heater, newer HVAC system with all-new ductwork installed in the attic, copper re-piping throughout, and quality finishes that elevate every detail of the home. This is a rare chance to own a turn-key property in one of Huntington Beach’s most coveted communities—all just minutes from world-class beaches, parks, and top-rated schools.

Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1972, this property has undergone extensive, high-quality renovations that bring it to an 'excellent' condition. The description highlights 'newer self-closing cabinetry,' 'leathered granite countertops,' a 'hammered copper farmhouse sink,' and 'glass mosaic backsplash' in the kitchen, indicating a recent and stylish update. The bathrooms are equally impressive with 'travertine finishes,' 'stone vessel sinks,' 'electronically heated stone floors,' a 'Jacuzzi tub,' and custom showers with body sprays, suggesting a spa-like, modern feel. Furthermore, major systems like the HVAC (newer with new ductwork), water heater (tankless), and plumbing (copper re-piping) have all been recently upgraded. The bamboo wood floors, recessed lighting, and resort-style backyard with a saltwater pool, grotto, and fire bowls further underscore the property's turn-key, high-end status. While the 'seller concessions' might imply minor cosmetic preferences, they do not detract from the overall superior condition and extensive modern updates.

Resort-Style Outdoor Living: Features an expansive backyard oasis with a saltwater pool (baja shelf, grotto, waterfalls, fire bowls) and a solar-powered palapa with built-in BBQ and outdoor TVs, perfect for entertaining and indoor/outdoor living.
Extensive Modern Upgrades: The property boasts comprehensive updates including a newer HVAC system with all-new ductwork, tankless water heater, copper re-piping throughout, and quality finishes, ensuring a turn-key experience.

Luxurious Spa-Inspired Bathrooms: Both the hall and primary bathrooms are impressively updated with high-end finishes, including travertine, custom stone showers with body sprays, heated stone floors, and a Jacuzzi tub in the primary suite.

Cons

Reduced Bedroom Count: The primary suite was expanded by removing a former 4th bedroom, which may limit appeal for larger families or those requiring more distinct sleeping quarters.
High Maintenance Outdoor Features: While luxurious, the elaborate saltwater pool, grotto, waterfalls, fire bowls, and extensive outdoor entertainment setup may incur significant ongoing maintenance and operational costs.
Original Construction Age: Despite extensive renovations, the property's original build year of 1972 means some underlying structural elements are older, which could be a consideration for long-term buyers.
