Designed with a grand aesthetic, the residence is defined by expansive living and entertaining areas, seamlessly connecting to the remarkable outdoor grounds. A covered loggia, open lawn, tranquil water feature, pool, and spa complement the commanding architecture, while a circular motor court crowns the estate’s long private drive—enhancing both privacy and presence. Offered in as-is condition, this is an extraordinary canvas for those seeking to renovate or rebuild on one of Pelican Ridge’s most desirable and seldom-available parcels. With its rare combination of size, frontage, and seclusion within a prestigious Newport Coast community, this offering must be experienced firsthand to fully grasp its promise, scale, and unmatched potential.
