Boasting a nearly 3,500 square foot lot and ocean views, approximately 50 steps from the sands of the Pacific Ocean, this West Newport Beach duplex is a hidden gem for those wanting the beach lifestyle away from the overloaded tourist hubs.  Zoned R2 and approved for short-term rentals, this prime duplex - currently featuring two, two-bedroom and two-bathroom units, one with an ocean view - has endless options... keep as-is and rent one or both units for income (short-term rentals for added profits or long-term rentals for reduced turnover and increased stability); live in one, rent the other; remodel both for added income or living comfort; or, perhaps the most advantageous opportunity with this extensive lot - build an enormous new duplex or astounding single-family home.  The possibilities are truly endless.  In addition to direct beach access mere paces away, enjoy nearby parks, restaurants, walking, biking, shopping and everything Newport Beach has to offer.
