About 3900 Channel Place
This multi-generational property has been owned by the same local prominent family for over 50 years. It took them nearly a decade, back in the mid 1900s to acquire these 3 "R2" parcels in a row, located in a premium bayfront location on Newport Island, Newport Beach. Arguably the most unique quality is that the city still recognizes there to be 3, (est) 30 foot wide R2 parcels ready for development as there are still 3 individual utility laterals running under each parcel. This marks an exciting opportunity to enjoy the recently remodeled beach house that retains its mid-century character, while having an incredible investment/development opportunity in the land below for future use. The current boat dock can accommodate a vessel up to 50 feet! Currently priced at land value, don't let this exceptional opportunity pass you by.
