Property Description

This iconic Balboa Island waterfront home with a private dock is one of the Island's original residences. Cherished by this family for over 80 years, it stands as a rare and meaningful piece of local history. Originally built in 1912, the home was thoughtfully relocated to its current site and added onto in the mid 1920's. Over time, it has been expanded and refined to meet the evolving needs of modern living while preserving its timeless character.

Ideally located in the coveted 1200 block of North Bayfront, the property is just moments from the Village, known for its charming boutiques and exceptional dining. Balboa Island offers a warm, welcoming, and highly walkable community enjoyed by residents of all ages.

The private dock features a finger slip, two side ties, and generous square footage, offering flexibility to reconfigure the float to suit your boating needs. Catalina Island is approximately 26 miles away—perfect for an effortless weekend escape—or cruise the harbor in your own Duffy and experience all the beauty Newport Harbor has to offer. The North Bayfront beach is ideal for swimming, sailing, and stand-up paddleboarding.

From your front patio, enjoy a front-row seat to several annual boat parades, including the world-renowned Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade.

Centrally located near premier shopping, performing arts venues, and respected medical institutions such as Hoag Hospital, City of Hope, and the impressive new UCI Medical Center, this home offers both charm and convenience.

Whether you envision full-time island living or a treasured coastal retreat, this is a rare opportunity to own and preserve a remarkable piece of Balboa Island history—ready to be enjoyed for generations to come. Oh, the possibilities!
