Sand between your toes one moment, settled on the sofa the next – this Newport Beach house sits directly on the beach, with the patio opening wide to the living area so the Pacific is never far from view. Alfresco dining, a barbecue, and the constant sound of the ocean make the outdoor space hard to leave. When the coastal air cools after sunset, a fireplace inside keeps things comfortable. Balboa Pier and the boardwalk are an easy walk away for days you want a little more to the morning.

About Newport Beach
Newport Beach was a playground to many of Hollywood's elite with a combination of old school glamour and a cool, laid back surfer vibe. Back in the day, it served as The Hamptons to the Beverly Hills crowd, especially keen yachtsmen like Humphrey Bogart.
