About 2038 Aliso Avenue
Ideally positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac and set on a rare oversized lot, this home offers the privacy and space that are increasingly hard to find, all within the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. Step inside to an opened-up floor plan, where raised ceilings and a new architectural beam create a bright, airy flow through the main living spaces. The flexible layout offers 3 generously sized bedrooms, including a main-level primary suite, a separate guest suite, and a second primary upstairs. The upper level also features a large bonus room that can serve as a media room, playroom or flex space to suit your lifestyle. Well-maintained original hardwood floors are complemented by thoughtful updates, including fresh interior paint, new recessed lighting, new closet doors, newer windows and an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Outside, the expansive backyard, pool and mature landscaping offer abundant space to entertain, play or create your own personalized vision. With no through traffic, the street invites bike rides, evening walks and afternoons spent outside. Just minutes from the walking and biking trails of the Newport Back Bay and the restaurants and shops of 17th Street, the home is perfectly positioned within the heart of Eastside Costa Mesa.

These facts are for the listing's map point, which can sit off the lot. A zone line can also cross a lot, and agencies revise their maps. In cities, the fire zone line follows the State Fire Marshal's 2025 map; each city adopts its own map and may add areas. These lines are not a Natural Hazard Disclosure. Check the official maps and the seller's disclosures before you rely on them.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.40% (week of Oct 15, 2026); your rate will differ. A loan this size is typically a jumbo loan, which prices differently. Tax and insurance are modelled, not billed amounts; tax uses a typical Costa Mesa rate, excluding Mello-Roos. Verify all figures.
