About 1550 Orange Avenue

1550 & 1554 Orange Ave includes six updated beach bungalows on a corner lot in a prime Eastside Costa Mesa location. These are two side-by-side triplexes on two separate parcels with two APNs, so each one can be financed conventionally. Buy both together, finance each separately, and keep more options open when it’s time to refinance or sell. All six are single-story 1-bed/1-bath units with a private yard and an assigned parking space, plus an on-site laundry room. The heavy lifting is done: updated electrical and plumbing, new water heaters, a new concrete driveway, and fresh exterior paint. Unit upgrades vary and include new cabinets and/or vanities, new flooring, and mini-split A/C and heat in every unit. 1554 #B is freshly renovated with a conservative pro forma rent of $2,800. Six electric meters, five gas meters, and two water meters. Newport Beach starts a few blocks away... an easy beach cruiser ride to the sand. The 17th Street shops and restaurants, South Coast Plaza, and the 55/73/405 freeways are minutes away.

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 7.32% (week of Oct 22, 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.
