About 1201 E Balboa
Set directly on the sand along one of Newport Beach’s most sought-after stretches of coastline, this exceptional oceanfront residence sits on a rare oversized corner lot with 41 feet of beach frontage, capturing sweeping, unobstructed views of the Pacific, bay, and coastline beyond. The home is defined by its seamless indoor-outdoor flow, opening to an expansive beachfront patio where the sand and sea feel like a natural extension of the living space. Light-filled interiors showcase an open-concept design with walls of glass, a statement fireplace, and a versatile layout featuring a main-level primary suite with ocean views, two additional guest bedrooms, separate staff quarters, and a private upper-level retreat, all connected by an elevator servicing three interior levels. A rooftop deck offers panoramic views in every direction, ideal for entertaining or relaxing above it all, while a lower-level wine cellar adds a refined touch. With garage and carport parking for up to 7 vehicles, this property delivers a rare blend of scale, architectural pedigree, and effortless beachfront living in an irreplaceable location.
