Beautifully reimagined, this recently renovated home offers nearly 6,000 square feet of refined living in the heart of Newport Heights — one of Newport Beach’s most coveted and centrally located coastal enclaves. With 5 bedrooms and 6.5 baths, this custom residence blends sophisticated design with a relaxed Southern California lifestyle defined by connection, comfort, and effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Expansive sliding doors by La Cantina open the living spaces entirely to the west-facing yard, creating a seamless transition to outdoor living while welcoming ocean breezes.
Afternoons unfold poolside at the private spool or relaxing beneath the covered outdoor lounge with fireplace, television, and built-in BBQ — a true extension of the home designed for year-round enjoyment. A gated front patio with fire pit and lush hedging offers yet another inviting space to gather with neighbors and friends. Upstairs you will find a luxurious primary suite featuring a serene retreat with fireplace, spa-inspired bath with Waterworks fixtures, and his and her walk-in closets.
