About 158 Cecil

Currently the lowest price-per-square-foot larger home in Eastside Costa Mesa, 158 Cecil Place is a courtyard-inspired home built in 2007, offering both lifestyle appeal and future upside. This thoughtfully designed residence features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and approximately 2,372 square feet of living space on an 8,405 sq ft lot.

A distinctive front and rear deck configuration creates a private, courtyard-style indoor–outdoor experience—ideal for entertaining or everyday living—while allowing natural light to flow throughout the home. The interior offers generous living areas, oversized bedrooms, and a flexible floor plan well-suited for work-from-home or multi-generational living.

The kitchen is designed with abundant cabinet and storage space, providing functionality for daily use and entertaining alike. A large two-car garage with direct interior access offers additional room for vehicles, storage, or hobbies—an increasingly valuable feature in this area.

The expansive lot allows for outdoor enjoyment and potential enhancements, with (R-2) zoning adding long-term value and development flexibility (buyer to verify).

Ideally located near beaches, shopping, and dining—and within walking distance to the trendy new Salty Horse café—this property blends modern comfort, indoor–outdoor living, and opportunity in one of Costa Mesa’s most desirable neighborhoods.

A rare opportunity to own a well-designed home offering space, flexibility, and indoor–outdoor living in a prime central Costa Mesa location.
