This exceptional Plan 5 residence in Newport Coast's sought-after Ziani community has been beautifully upgraded and graces a premier location at the front row of a quiet, tree-lined footpath with panoramic city lights, mountain and hillside views. Designed on two levels for ultimate livability, this light and bright 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home features hardwood flooring, expansive ceiling height, Hunter Douglas window shades, and a gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including Sub-Zero fridge and wine captain, and sit-up bar. Ideal for entertaining and relaxed - yet stylish - everyday living, the flow between family room, dining room, and kitchen is effortless. Upstairs, a large master suite with balcony and scenic vistas offers a spa-influenced bathroom clad in marble, with soaking tub, separate shower, dual vanities and walk-in closet. Two generously scaled bedrooms - each with en suite bath also share this level. For outdoor living, either the expansive front courtyard overlooking the picturesque views, or spacious second level terrace, are the ideal setting for private, alfresco enjoyment. The den, upstairs laundry room and two-car garage with storage complete this appealing coastal residence - all amidst the luxe amenities of Ziani and a stone's throw to beaches, Fashion Island, and restaurants.
