Experience the perfect blend of sophistication and casual luxury in this beautifully remodeled Costa Mesa home, ideally located just a short bike ride to the beach or to the scenic Back Bay. The primary property has 3-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms that welcome you with high-beam ceilings, engineered oak flooring, and elegant design touches throughout. The heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen with natural wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a 6-burner Wolf industrial oven--perfect for both casual meals and dinner parties. A stunning floor-to-ceiling, temperature controlled, glass-encased wine cabinet stores up to 124 bottles in style.

Designed for the ultimate entertainer, this residence boasts zoned surround sound from the cozy front porch to the serene backyard fire pit. Step outside to discover a private oasis, featuring a covered patio with a fireplace, a built-in BBQ and kegerator, a big-screen TV for movie nights, and a luxurious pool with a built-in spa. The outdoor living area is completed with a remote-controlled sunshade for added privacy and comfort.

The primary suite is a retreat of its own, with a spacious soaking tub, dual sinks, and a walk-in shower that doubles as a steam room. The smart home system and wood-burning fireplaces--both inside and out--enhance the warm, welcoming ambiance.

For guests or extended stays, the separate studio guest house includes a full kitchen, bathroom, and private entry. The property offers ample parking with a long driveway leading to a detached 2-car garage. This residence blends craftsmanship with everyday comfort. The Charm of East Costa Mesa.
