Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1963, this duplex shows a mix of renovation levels. The upper unit features a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and quartz countertops, along with updated bathrooms and LVP flooring, suggesting a renovation within the last 5-10 years. However, the lower unit's kitchen and bathroom appear to have been renovated 15-25 years ago, with darker tile, older cabinet styles, and a dated mint-colored bathroom countertop. While move-in ready, the property's overall age and the inconsistency in updates, particularly the older lower unit, indicate that some components are outdated and potential infrastructure updates may be required, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Coastal Location: The property is ideally located just steps from the sand in the heart of Newport Beach, offering unparalleled access to the beach and coastal lifestyle.
Rare Short-Term Rental Permit: Possession of a rare short-term rental permit provides significant income generation potential and flexibility for investment or personal use.
Versatile Duplex Configuration: As a duplex with separate units (2-bed/1-bath and 4-bed/2-bath), it's ideal for multi-generational living, vacation rentals, or a primary residence with guest accommodations.
Ocean Views & Breezes: Offers a 'peek-a-boo' ocean view and expansive patios for enjoying ocean breezes and sunset views, enhancing the beach living experience.
Ample Parking: Includes a 2-car garage plus an additional covered parking space, a valuable amenity in a high-demand beach community.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1963, the property may require significant updates to its infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) or cosmetic renovations to meet modern standards and buyer expectations.
Limited Lot Size: The 3,049 sqft lot is relatively small for a duplex of 2,890 sqft, potentially limiting private outdoor space or future expansion possibilities.
Partial Ocean View: The description specifies a 'peek-a-boo' ocean view, indicating it's not a full, expansive, or unobstructed vista, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking premium oceanfront views.
