The home
About 541 A Bernard St
This mid-century modern home is a unique property with a bungalow-style vibe. Located in a desirable pocket of Costa Mesa, it epitomizes urban-living, walking distance to Mothers Market, Triangle Square, dining and shopping. Located in the 1.7 Ocean community, this completely completely remodeled 2-bedroom, 1 bath was tastefully elevated in 2022. Its first OC facelift was in 2007, a project by Steve Jones who renovated the community with total attention to mid-century detail. Orange Coast Magazine calls 1.7 Ocean "...a combination of sustainable construction and sleek mid-century modern design." Need a lower interest rate? WE GOT YOU. This address falls under an "opportunity zone" (cross-check with your lender for your new rate!). Oversized mid-century modern wood framed glass front door opens to clean, crisp light-filled multi-use living area. The pitched ceilings and natural light throughout give this a bright and warm feel. The professionally landscaped wrap-around yard is designed for privacy and features drought-tolerant plantings. The side area is perfect for pet run, maybe exterior storage or just a place to lay and catch some Vitamin D. Located in the Newport Mesa School District, which scores high national ratings. It’s not often a turnkey mid-century home Costa Mesa, let alone in 1.7 Ocean, becomes available - would hate for you to miss out on this one.
