About This Property
It was all a dream! Truly, the current owners dreamt of the
ultimate home for their friends and family to live, laugh & love.
Uniquely found here in the Lower Birds, is the bike trail to the
beach, one entry into the community, underground electricity
creating an open feeling on daily walks, and of course the famed
4th of July parade. Where to begin with the home? Let's start with
the 10k+ sqft lot, fully landscaped drought tolerant yard by
@terracottastyles, custom pool, large outdoor patio space perfect
for outdoor bbq's/ movie nights, and of course the olive green
custom mini ramp to live out all your Search For Animal Chin
dreams, or easily removable for a large additional grassy area.
Envisioned in '65 and continuously remastered from one MCM
Connoisseur to the next with smooth cement stucco, wood accents,
bamboo floors (zero carpet), remodeled bathrooms, new roof, new
plumbing, glass staircase and more. Large master with dual walk-in
closets. 2 additional guest rooms + an incredible private office/
4th bedroom. Open concept, for gatherings not to be forgotten. At
the end of the day, this is THE place to warm the jacuzzi and soak
it all in. Perfectly located within minutes from South Coast Plaza,
SOCO, The Lab, Lido Village, Pacific City, Mesa Verde Country Club
and more. With area comps, on smaller lots, exceeding 1.5, this is
one that will be gone sooner then later. Photography by Timothy
Krueger & Robbie Jeffers. Design by Old Bones Co & Alana Dawn.
