About 2242 Orchard Drive

6,000 sq. foot lot in Newport Beach with existing 1,106 sq. foot home midway through rehab. Once in a lifetime "investor special" in this Back Bay-adjacent equestrian wonderland. Let your imagination run wild on this lot and finish the remodel, add-on, add a stable for one horse, or scrape and build your dream home. You'll be surrounded by an eclectic mix of multi-million dollar mansions, updated farmhouses, and large lot equestrian property neighbors who all share a love for the outdoors, proximity to the Back Bay trails, coffee and dining at The Ranch, and easy freeway access. According to the City zoning, this home is zoned REQ, allowing 1 horse for lots less than 10,000 sq. ft. Sorry, due to the current home condition, the owner will be looking only at all-cash offers.
