The lifestyle is what makes Upper Birds so special. Just moments away are Fairview Park's hundreds of acres of open space, scenic walking and biking trails, the newly renovated Tanager Park with pickleball courts, playground, basketball and volleyball courts, the Costa Mesa Country Club public golf course, and the prestigious Mesa Verde Country Club. Enjoy easy bike access to both Newport Beach and Huntington Beach, along with close proximity to shopping, restaurants, Orange Coast College, the OC Fairgrounds, and top local schools.
