I lived two doors down from this place 82-93 during my 20's, Loved it. Our street was a family,
old ,young, single, and families everyone got along and had fun.
A beautiful girl from Massachusetts moved in down stairs from me, and six years later she became my wife.
That street may seem dumpy, but in reality its the best location. In and off the peninsula in a zip; Also the street is separated by Balboa from the much noisier party zone across the street.
One more thing, a story about this short sale. When I lived on the street the place was owned by a nice older Asian widower; he had two hard rocken skate boarding teen sons. The place was in perfect condition, he was all about the maintained. He also owned the burger place down in Newport shores on coast highway.
Anyways, on with the story. around 87-88 he met a woman and was married ( I could tell he was a lonely guy). The women was a tall big tited red head she flashy and attractive. she was every thing he was not. sadly, she cleaned him out. He was forced into bankruptcy and lost both properties
