Sand practically at the doorstep – the boardwalk patio opens straight onto the beach, and the living room looks out over the water so the waves are never far from view. Upstairs, a rooftop deck catches the sea breeze on warm evenings, with barbecues on both levels so alfresco meals happen wherever the mood takes you. Two self-contained living spaces across the house make it a natural fit for two families wanting their own rhythm without losing sight of each other. Balboa Island is a twenty-minute walk, and Newport Beach Pier is a thirty-two-minute stroll along the coast.
