Welcome to 226 La Jolla Dr. - a fully renovated coastal bungalow in the highly desirable Newport Harbor Heights neighborhood of Newport Beach. Perched on a private bluff with coastal breezes and a rare sense of privacy, the home sits just minutes from the beach, Newport Harbor, and the shops and restaurants of Lido Marina Village, with quick access to PCH and the best of coastal Orange County living. It's also within one of Newport's top-rated school zones, all close by. Renovated top-to-bottom over the past two years, the home blends modern comfort with its classic Newport bungalow charm. A light-filled, open-concept layout lets the living and dining areas flow together - warm, functional, and easy to entertain in. The updated kitchen offers quartz counters, new appliances, and ample cabinetry in a clean, efficient layout. The bath has been tastefully remodeled with contemporary finishes, and new flooring throughout, fresh interior and exterior paint, and upgraded roof and gutter systems make this a genuinely turnkey home with no deferred-maintenance surprises. The primary bedroom includes a spacious walk-in closet, while the second bedroom opens directly to its own patio and deck - a private indoor-outdoor space ideal as a guest room, home office, or quiet retreat. Multiple outdoor areas invite morning coffee, coastal breezes, or unwinding in privacy. Additional amenities include in-unit laundry, central A/C, a fireplace, two dedicated parking spaces, and an outdoor storage garage. Cats and small dogs welcome. Available now.
