This Week in Costa Mesa: The Oldest Home in Costa Mesa is Sold!
The roughly 1,000-square-foot house is believed to have been built as early as 1880. Save for the Diego Sepulveda Adobe from the 1820s, the house is the oldest in town, local historians say.The Station Master's House has one bedroom, one bathroom with a small adjacent alcove, a living area and kitchen. It was once used by the station master working the Paularino railroad siding of the Santa Ana and Newport Railway, whose route went from Santa Ana to the Newport Pier, according to Costa Mesa Historical Society records.The house was originally near present-day Baker Street and Newport Boulevard before being moved in the 1940s to its Newport Boulevard location near Stater Bros.
