Why 36 Vienna Is Different
Some homes check boxes. This one offers a combination of features that is extremely difficult to find together in Harbor Ridge Crest: a front-row reservoir view, a downstairs primary suite, true indoor-outdoor living, and the security of a 24-hour guard-gated community minutes from the coast.
Front Row View of San Joaquin Reservoir
An unobstructed vista of the reservoir and the open hillsides beyond — a view that cannot be replicated.
Downstairs Primary Bedroom with Walk-in Closet
A true single-level primary suite — exceptionally rare in Harbor Ridge Crest and ideal for move-up, downsizing, and lock-and-leave lifestyles.
Indoor-Outdoor Living
Patios connect the main living areas to the outdoor entertaining space, framed by the reservoir view.
Tranquil Treehouse Setting
Mature landscaping and elevated topography give the home a private, treehouse-like feel — quiet, green, and on a single-loaded street.
Built-In BBQ & Outdoor Dining
A turnkey outdoor kitchen and dining area designed for everyday Newport Beach evenings and weekend entertaining.
24-Hour Guard-Gated Harbor Ridge Crest
Round-the-clock security, manicured grounds, community pools, spas, and tennis courts — the lifestyle infrastructure today's luxury buyer expects.
Property Description
The Residence
A serene Harbor Ridge Crest retreat where vaulted ceilings, walls of windows, and sweeping views make everyday living feel elevated. Located within the prestigious 24-hour guard-gated community of Harbor Ridge Crest, 36 Vienna enjoys a quiet single-loaded street and expansive views across the San Joaquin Reservoir to the Saddleback and San Bernardino Mountains — with snow-capped Big Bear peaks visible at certain times of year. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home combines privacy, natural light and an exceptionally livable floor plan in one of Newport Beach's most desirable hillside settings.
The spacious primary suite is conveniently located on the first floor, along with its beautifully renovated bath, generous walk-in closet, kitchen, living and dining rooms — creating the ease of predominantly single-level living. Vaulted ceilings and abundant windows fill the main living spaces with light and frame the surrounding greenery and views. Fireplaces warm both the living room and primary bedroom. The remodeled kitchen features white Shaker cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a four-burner gas range and oven, wine refrigerator, flat-screen TV and an expansive center island. Just outside, a patio with built-in barbecue provides an inviting place to dine and enjoy the reservoir and mountain views. The adjoining dining room offers illuminated display cabinetry, a built-in buffet and a second wine refrigerator. An updated powder bath completes the main level.
Upstairs, brand-new carpet extends across the staircase and upper floor. A versatile view-side loft opens to an upper-level deck and is ideal for an office, media room or play area. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second floor; one bedroom, currently used as an office, features its own balcony with exterior stair access.
One of four Harbor Ridge Crest pools and spas is approximately 50 yards away, and the community also offers three tennis courts. A detached two-car garage includes built-in cabinetry, a workbench and epoxy flooring. Minutes from Fashion Island, Newport Center, beaches, highly regarded schools and John Wayne Airport, 36 Vienna offers the rare feeling of a private retreat in the trees with the security, convenience and coastal lifestyle of Newport Beach.

The Lifestyle
Minutes to Everything You Love
Life at 36 Vienna extends well beyond the front door. The location puts the best of coastal Orange County — beaches, dining, shopping, schools, and travel — within minutes, while Harbor Ridge Crest keeps the world quiet at the end of the day.
The Reservoir-View Advantage
Front-row reservoir homesites in Harbor Ridge Crest come to market rarely. The view is permanent, the privacy is built in, and the daily quality of life is something buyers tour for years to find.
Near Beach
Minutes to Corona del Mar, Big Corona, and the Newport Coast beaches — the daily proximity to the Pacific that defines this market.
Luxury Living
A 24-hour guard-gated community with community pools, spas, and tennis courts — the lifestyle amenities you inherit on day one.
Restaurants
An unmatched concentration of high-end dining within minutes — Fashion Island, Newport Center, Corona del Mar Village, Crystal Cove, and the wider coastal Orange County scene offer a vast variety of cuisines, from Michelin-recommended tasting menus to neighborhood favorites, with a density of standout restaurants unrivaled for many miles.
World-Class Shopping
Fashion Island and South Coast Plaza both within minutes — among the most prestigious retail destinations on the West Coast.
Schools
Award-winning Newport-Mesa Unified and proximity to top private schools — a quiet, lasting reason families anchor in Newport Beach.
Effortless Air Travel
John Wayne Airport is just minutes away — yet Harbor Ridge Crest sits entirely outside the flight path, giving residents the convenience of a major airport without any of the air traffic noise.
Nationally Recognized Hospital
Hoag Hospital Newport Beach: one of Orange County's most respected healthcare destinations, providing comprehensive medical services in a beautiful coastal setting.
The Neighborhood
Life in Harbor Ridge Crest
Harbor Ridge Crest is one of Newport Beach's most established guard-gated luxury communities — a hillside enclave above Newport Center with panoramic ocean, harbor, reservoir, and city-light views. It offers the security, amenities, and lifestyle infrastructure that buyers from across the country actively search for when relocating to the coast.
24-Hour Guard-Gated Security
Manned entry gates requiring passes for visitors — the lifestyle baseline that luxury and lock-and-leave buyers prioritize.
Reservoir & Hillside Views
Front-row sites overlook the San Joaquin Reservoir and protected open space — permanent views that cannot be built out.
Community Pools, Spas & Tennis Courts
Resort-style amenities maintained by the HOA — a real, daily advantage of living in Harbor Ridge Crest.
Minutes to Fashion Island & Newport Center
World-class shopping, dining, and the Newport business core just down the hill — convenience few coastal communities can match.
Newport-Mesa Schools
Access to top-rated Newport-Mesa Unified campuses plus proximity to renowned private school options.
Coastal Lifestyle, Hilltop Privacy
Minutes to Corona del Mar and Newport Harbor, with the privacy and elevation of a hilltop guard-gated enclave.
"The emotional appeal of Harbor Ridge Crest is the calm at the top of the hill — the gates close behind you, the view opens up, and the rest of the world quiets down."

Client Testimonials
What Clients Say
Relationships, repeat clients, and referrals — the strongest measure of how we deliver for the families we serve.
“Lisa is a great realtor! We have moved multiple times and worked with many realtors in the past. We really appreciate the ease of working with her because of her strong communication skills. Living out of state and trying to sell a home is difficult. Lisa was our right hand person. She was able to meet movers and acquire different bids on projects that needed estimates. She was quick to answer texts and was available to be on the property site when requested. We would highly recommend Lisa for realtor services.”
“Lisa is a true professional, who is extremely knowledgable about the local real estate market and trends. She helped us purchase investment property that, with her help, we will turn into our dream vacation home. As buyers from out of state, Lisa had to manage us and most of the transaction remotely. In doing so, she displayed her incredible communication skills, her dedication to helping us find the absolute perfect place, and her willingness to work all hours to answer our questions. She was a strong and patient negotiator, but with a sincere and warm personality that helped her gain the respect and trust of the selling agents. Even now that the transaction is over, she has continued to help and act as our local liaison. Not only have we gained a new house and new agent for life in Orange County, we've gained a new friend.”
“Lisa Hoover is such a great realtor and a top notch professional. She made this experience so enjoyable and comfortable every step of the way, and was such a pleasure to work with. If me and my family ever decide to move and buy another house in the future, she will no doubt be my realtor of choice.”
“I had the pleasure working with Lisa Hoover at First Team. She made us feel special, went over and beyond and exceeded our expectations! I used other realtor's in the past, I now have only one from this day forward (Lisa Hoover).”
