Discover one of Newport Heights' rarest opportunities: a fully remodeled 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with RTI-approved plans to add 1,000 sq ft, all on a premium, 100% buildable cul-de-sac lot with no easements or encroachments. Perfectly suited for families seeking proximity to top-rated schools and the long-term vision of expanding or custom-building their dream home.
Set on an expansive 8,100 sq ft parcel, this property is primed for immediate expansion—saving the next owner 12+ months of design and entitlement headaches. The thoughtfully updated floorplan features a modern chef's kitchen, upgraded baths, wide-plank LVP flooring (9-inch x 6-foot panels), 5-inch baseboards, paneled accent walls, new windows, PEX plumbing, a 200-amp panel, and refreshed landscaping. A charming double Dutch door entry invites ocean breezes and adds to the home's coastal character. It’s move-in ready for families who wish to enjoy the home now while planning for future growth.
Positioned within a quiet, sought-after cul-de-sac in Newport Heights/Cliff Haven, the lot's flat topography allows for creative architectural designs—including potential upper-level additions or expanded outdoor living spaces. Zoning and lot size allow for an estate up to approximately 8,500 sq ft. Unlike many neighboring lots burdened with access easements or building restrictions, this parcel offers full development freedom.
This cul-de-sac is a tightly held enclave, with many properties still owned by original families. Opportunities like this seldom arise in such a coveted location.
Recent sales in the area support the upside potential—just down the street on 23rd (a busy through street), a newly built estate sold in days at nearly $1,900 per sq ft, approaching $10 million. This property, positioned in a quieter cul-de-sac, offers a superior lot configuration and development flexibility for the next visionary owner.
Located within the highly regarded Newport-Mesa Unified School District, families will appreciate access to some of the area’s most desirable schools, fostering a community ideal for long-term residence and investment.
Surrounded by multi-million-dollar custom estates, this property represents a true "land value + build equity" play in one of Orange County's most desirable enclaves. With no HOA or Mello Roos, the pathway is clear for an expedited project timeline.
RTI Plans included in sale. Bring your vision and capitalize on this rare, plug-and-play opportunity.
