246 Flower St, Costa Mesa, CA 92627

Property Description

Built in 1938 and thoughtfully expanded by the current owners, this Eastside Costa Mesa Craftsman bungalow is offered for the first time in nearly 40 years. Combining the quality of fine period homes with today’s comforts, authentic design elements include original oak floors matched in the expansion and a bright kitchen with an O’Keefe & Merritt enamel stove and Marmoleum® flooring. Ample living areas invite entertaining and cozy nooks provide relaxation. French doors and restored windows welcome sunlight and offer views of the gardens. The second-floor master suite’s generous windows highlight garden views and a private deck presents glimpses of distant mountains. Two bright garden-level bedrooms and an additional full bath and half-bath offer flexibility. Exceptional specimen trees – including a magnolia and a California Sycamore – provide privacy for this single-load corner lot on desirable Flower Street. Beautiful gardens with ever-changing trees and shrubs were designed by the landscape-architect owner, and shady flagstone patios and an outdoor fireplace lend comfort for year-round entertaining. Specially milled cedar siding cover the exterior and artist-selected paint colors complement the gardens and complete this distinctive home.
