Positioned as a terrific harbor front value with long-term upside potential, this retro-cool Mid-Century Modern bay front home designed by celebrated architect Bill Blurock embraces waterfront living with a stylish nod to the design elements of the 1960s. Timeless clean lines, large windows, and an open interior layout seamlessly merge the indoor and outdoor spaces, offering panoramic views of Newport Harbor. Underscored by a neutral interior color palette and uncluttered style, the home is characterized by the use of natural materials including wood beam ceiling detail, concrete floors, and a stone fireplace.

The private dock accommodates a vessel of approximately 56' and the side-tie is perfect for a Duffy boat and water toys. With four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and an office-loft, there is room for everyone to enjoy funs times together on the water. The primary suite with its separate sitting area delights in endless views of the bay, and twinkling city lights. Characterized by a minimalist exterior facade, the home blends form and function, offering a timeless retreat that celebrates the beauty of waterfront living. Conveniently positioned Mid-Peninsula just a short stroll, bike or golf cart ride from the myriad shops and restaurants that the Balboa Peninsula is known for. An amazing bay front lifestyle opportunity.
