Here is the quintessential Balboa Island cottage, strategically perched on a sunny Bay-view corner lot on the peaceful and serene Little Island. The spacious, elevated brick-lined front patio opens into the home through a Dutch door or multi-panel sliding doors. The expansive living and dining areas then lead to an updated chef's kitchen, all with stunning water views. The second level showcases 3 bedrooms with vaulted beamed ceilings, including the oversized primary suite with its own generous balcony. Among the home's many fine attributes are quartz counters, central A/C, luxury vinyl floors, and a two-car garage. Both the patio and upper deck provide front-row views of Newport Harbor without the inconvenience of pedestrian boardwalk traffic. Little Balboa Island has underground utilities, wide streets, lots of fresh salt air and sunshine. Don't miss this wonderful home!
