Offered for the first time in 48 years, this exceptional Halecrest residence presents a rare opportunity to own one of the neighborhood’s most distinctive homes in one of Costa Mesa’s most sought-after communities. Meticulously maintained and lovingly cared for over nearly five decades, this expansive single-level home offers over 2,000 square feet, a size and layout rarely available in Halecrest. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home seamlessly blends generous living spaces with everyday comfort.

At the center of the home, the beautifully upgraded kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring a large center island with built-in storage, abundant cabinetry, a spacious pantry with pull-out drawers, elegant granite countertops and backsplash, and a premium stainless steel appliance package.
