Balboa Island House | Just like staying at friend's designer beach home!

3 Bedroom House in Balboa Island, Newport Beach

Enjoy our cottage by the sea! This lovely home has been completely renovated to its charming 1920s roots but updated to include all modern conveniences. From the hardwood floors to the black and white checked tile baths, you will feel like stepping back in time while enjoying a clean, charming Cape Cod/Nantucket-style retreat.
This is a wonderful place to entertain family and friends, enjoy downtime while away on business, or curl up with a book in one of the many nooks and take advantage of some private time.
We have three bedrooms (A king bedroom, a queen bedroom, and another with a double and a twin) and three bathrooms split into three powder rooms with a sink and toilet, then three showers private to each bedroom (one with a small bathtub).
You can gather or relax with plenty of places to spread out (bedrooms, living room, dining room, breakfast room, television room, patio). The patio area is spacious, sunny, inviting, and private.
We provide numerous amenities to make your stay as relaxing as possible.
-High-speed Internet access.
-A spacious living room for relaxing, gathering, and entertaining.
- A separate den with a smart TV with DirecTV and streaming services.
-All three bedrooms each have a private shower.
-Both the master suite and the living room have stereo systems for enjoying music.
-Our dedicated laundry room has a full-size washer and gas dryer.
-The water heater is a top-of-the-line tankless unit that allows several showers to run simultaneously.
We are foodies, so our fully equipped kitchen has gourmet amenities, including:
- Viking gas range,
- Microwave,
- Dishwasher,
- Refrigerator and automatic icemaker with water and ice in the door,
- Keurig coffee maker with drip or pods,
- Vitamix blender,
- Cuisinart food processor,
- Viking toaster,
- professional cookware,
- plenty of dishes, serving items and barware for all occasions!
- Our private, sunny, spacious patio has a table, six chairs under a market umbrella, and a propane Blackstone griddle.
- Our private driveway provides up to three parking spots, so you'll never have to worry about finding street parking.
We are two doors down from a sandy bay beach (not all Balboa Island bayfronts have a beach) and just three short blocks from the main street, Marine Avenue, where you will find restaurants, gourmet coffee, pastry stores, iconic frozen banana shops, legendary donuts, shopping boutiques, and groceries.
A short walk to the other side of the island puts you on the historic ferry running over to the Balboa Peninsula, where you will find more restaurants, the 'Fun Zone' of arcades and rides, the oceanfront, and piers.
Balboa Island is an ideal location for vacationing or staying while on business. It is conveniently located but feels far away from the ordinary. Once over the short bridge, you need never get in the car again. Restaurants and groceries are steps away. Much of the charm comes from strolling along the bayfront sidewalk along Balboa Island's perimeter, which is also ideally suited for those who like a more vigorous walk or jog.
Within walking distance, you can rent a boat, take a harbor tour, walk along the surf, take the boat/flyer to Catalina Island for the day, scuba dive, deep sea fish, surf, windsurf, bike along paths, grocery shop, swim, kayak, pier fish, choose from a variety of restaurants, snorkel, sail, Jet Ski, body surf and more.
Southern California offers many different activities within a day-trip visit. Theme parks are plentiful (Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knott’s Berry Farm, Six Flags Magic Mountain, Lego Land, and several water parks), as are many other wonderful activities, including some of the best golf courses in Southern California located only a short drive away. If you have exhausted the many boutiques on Balboa Island, then Newport Center/Fashion Island is a five-minute drive (stores, restaurants, movie theaters), and the world-famous South Coast Plaza is just a 15-minute drive. Popular beach destinations are within 20 minutes North and South, including Huntington Beach (Surf City) and Laguna Beach, Dana Point, and San Clemente.
There are also plenty of hikes (such as Crystal Cove State Park), parks and nature experiences. World-class plays and art are 15 minutes drive at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts.
