Exceptional Newport Beach Duplex – Steps from the Sand. This rare short-term rental permitted duplex presents an outstanding opportunity for both investors and owner-users alike. Ideally located just two blocks from the beach, the property offers exceptional versatility with two distinct residences: a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath upper unit and a 1-bedroom, 1-bath lower unit. The upper residence has been beautifully remodeled, featuring a brand-new kitchen with custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and thoughtfully updated bathrooms. New flooring and modern lighting enhance the home’s contemporary coastal aesthetic, while vaulted wood-beamed ceilings and abundant natural light create an inviting, open atmosphere. Glass sliders lead to a private roof deck with ocean views, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The lower unit offers its own private patio with French doors—ideal for entertaining—as well as air conditioning for year-round comfort. Both units are well-appointed with stainless steel appliances, cozy fireplaces, en suite primary bedrooms, double-pane windows, fresh paint, and a mix of laminate and tile flooring. Additional highlights include recessed lighting, washer and dryer, a 2-car garage, and two carport spaces. Whether you choose to live in one unit and rent the other or maximize income potential with both, this property is perfectly suited for investment, rental income, or a 1031 exchange. Enjoy the best of coastal living with award-winning schools, world-class dining, coffee shops, and entertainment just moments away.
