About this home

Modern design meets coastal charm in this "front-row" home in The Bluffs Community. You are immediately welcomed by a spacious private patio that is ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. Step through the front door and take in the breathtaking canyon views that set the tone for this warm contemporary residence. Thoughtfully upgraded, this home features new windows and doors, luxury flooring, Thermador appliances, a whole-house water purification system, CAT5 wiring, insulated ceilings, and an EV charger in the garage. The highly sought-after “E” floor plan showcases an upside-down, open-concept layout that’s perfect for hosting while enjoying the views. The entry level includes the main living areas along with the primary suite. Reconfigured as a two-bedroom (to allow for expanded closet and storage space), this home can easily be converted back into a three-bedroom. With two separate patios and a spacious balcony to enjoy the views, this home embraces the indoor/outdoor lifestyle that defines Southern California. Residents of The Bluffs enjoy community pools, expansive greenbelts, meandering footpaths and nearby access to the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve. This is your opportunity to own a bluff-front property in a prime Newport Beach location, close to top-rated schools, local beaches, Balboa Island, John Wayne Airport and world-class shopping and dining at Fashion Island and South Coast Plaza.

Cons

Reduced Bedroom Count: Currently reconfigured as a two-bedroom home (from an original three-bedroom), which may require additional investment or effort to convert back for buyers needing a third bedroom.
Compact Lot Size: The 1,808 sqft lot is relatively small for a single-family residence, potentially limiting extensive private outdoor space beyond the existing patios and balcony.
Ongoing Association Fees: A monthly association fee of $595 is an additional recurring cost of homeownership, which should be factored into a buyer's budget.
