Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1971, this property has undergone extensive and thoughtful renovations, making it move-in ready. The main unit features a 'luxury Chef’s kitchen' with a six-burner Thermador range and stone countertops, indicating high-end appliance upgrades. Modern systems like solar, EV whole home battery and charging, and a water filtration system are significant recent additions. Flooring throughout includes clean tile and wood-look laminate. While the kitchen appliances and overall systems are modern and high-quality, the style of the wood cabinetry and some bathroom finishes suggest a renovation timeline closer to 5-15 years ago rather than brand new, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria. The property is very well-maintained with no immediate renovation required.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Back Bay Views: Located in highly desirable Newport Beach, this end unit offers incredible Back Bay views from both units and both front and back patios, enhancing its appeal and value.
Income Potential & Flexible Living: The property is uniquely configured as two independent 1-bedroom units, each with its own entrance and amenities, providing excellent potential for rental income or multi-generational living.
Extensive Modern Upgrades & Energy Efficiency: Features a luxury Chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances (Thermador range, stone countertops), a solar system, EV whole home battery and charging, and a water filtration system, offering modern comfort and reduced utility costs.
Desirable Outdoor Amenities: Includes a flagstone enclosed front patio with a fire pit, a large back patio with Back Bay views, an above-ground hot tub, and mature fruit trees, creating inviting outdoor living spaces.
End Unit Benefits: As an end unit, the property typically benefits from increased privacy, more natural light, and fewer shared walls compared to interior units.

Cons

Unique/Modified Layout: The significant modification into two separate 1-bedroom units, while offering flexibility, may appeal to a niche market and could potentially complicate financing or resale for traditional buyers seeking a standard single-family home configuration.
Age of Property: Built in 1971, despite numerous upgrades, the property's underlying infrastructure and some original components may be older, potentially leading to unforeseen maintenance or repair costs in the future.
Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $375 adds to the ongoing cost of ownership, which is a recurring expense that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
