491 Prospect Street
Discover the pinnacle of coastal living at 491 Prospect Street—a fully rebuilt, luxury residence in the heart of Newport Shores, just steps from the sand. Set on a rare oversized corner lot, this home stands apart with its generous outdoor space, private driveway, and attached two-car garage—offering privacy, parking, and the freedom to expand, a true rarity in this coveted beachside community. Completely reimagined from the ground up in 2020, this home offers the comfort, quality, and peace of mind that comes with something new, with every major system replaced just five years ago—including new electrical, plumbing, sewer, roof, A/C and furnace, tankless water heater, and a whole-house water filtration system. This is not your typical “row home” beach house. Set on a large, private lot with an attached two-car garage and its own driveway, the property offers the space and flexibility so rarely found this close to the coast. There's even room to expand—adding long-term value and lifestyle potential. Inside, the open-concept design flows effortlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces. The custom maple kitchen includes a stylish indoor/outdoor bar perfect for entertaining, while oversized bifold doors open to a private patio with a built-in BBQ and gas firepit—ideal for relaxed coastal evenings. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a linear fireplace, spa-like bathroom with a large Kohler bubble tub, and a separate steam shower wrapped in custom tile and glass—an indulgent escape after a day at the beach. Directly across the street, enjoy access to Newport Shores’ coveted amenities: an Olympic-sized pool, tennis and volleyball courts, and a vibrant calendar of community events—all within easy reach of the sand, restaurants, and coastal trails. Beautifully designed, thoughtfully rebuilt, and ideally located, 491 Prospect is a rare opportunity to own a truly turn-key home in one of Newport Beach’s most desirable neighborhoods. Every day feels like a vacation—welcome to Newport Beach living at its best.
