About the property

This value original Craftsman cottage on the corner of Balboa and 30th Street was built in 1923 and has been charming visitors ever since! One block from the beach and walking distance to the Newport Pier, shops, eateries and groceries, you won't have to move the car once you park (except for the street sweeper).

The vintage and rustic cottage has original hardwood floors throughout. The living room is airy and comfortable and has a sleeper sofa for an extra guest. The dining room has a beautiful hardwood table that seats 6. The kitchen has a dual sink, oven, stove top, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator and cute breakfast nook with built-in seating. The home does not have a washer or dryer, but the local laundromat is just across the street. This home is original from the 30's with no frills or updates but priced for location to the beach.

Bedrooms are compact, as the home was built to serve as a beach house getaway back in the day. The first bedroom has a queen bed, the second has two twins. There are two full bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and the other with a tub-shower combination.

The sun room has lots of seating and is the perfect spot to curl up with a good book. The front patio has a table that seats four and a charcoal BBQ, great for grilling up family favorites.

The garage is used to store bikes, surfboards and other beach gear. One parking space is available on Balboa Boulevard parallel to the garage door (except during street sweeping).

The location below the 28th St Jetty is convenient for exploring the area on foot or by bicycle. The Newport Pier is a quick stroll away with shops and local eateries galore. The grocery store is a quick trip away at 32nd St with more shops and restaurants. The newly renovated Lido Marina Village with its high-end restaurants and boutiques is a few minutes beyond. You can rent an electric boat to tool around the harbor or enjoy a meal with bay views.

This was our second time staying here. And the location is excellent- steps to the beach- morning walks with surfers, dolphins, sandpipers, and pelicans. Beautiful sunsets. We love the original beach bungalow style, reminds us of Olde Newport.

Reply: Thank you so much for the lovely review, Melanie! We look forward to hosting again for a third time!

This beach house is charming… a bit older, but spacious, easy to access and perfect for our trip. We couldn’t get maintainence out one day, but we left the next… the first day we needed them they were super fast.

It was clean. Easy. Great location. Perfect. Not fancy but more than enough to hang with family go to walkable restaurants and go to the beach 3 minutes away

Reply: Thank you for the review, Jodi! We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope to host you again in the future.

This original Newport Beach cottage has the charm of a last century beach vacation when things were slower and simpler. You can walk barefoot to the beach, directly down the block on the sidewalk. The sand, ocean, seabirds and dolphins are all right there. We collected shells and drank our coffee on the beach.

Reply: Hello Melanie, thank you for the lovely review! We are so glad you enjoyed the original charm of the home and the wonderful beach location. We hope to host you again in the future!

Great location!

Kathryn M.

Great time and cozy house. Very charming. I was disappointed about not having a washer dryer but the laundromat across the street is great and clean. Parking was not a problem this time of the year.

It was everything our family needed, great location!A few things to improve on: Clean better, update amenities and could have used a baby gate. We had a 2-year-old, and it was quite the challenge being a corner house on a busy street and had to stack chairs to block patio opening.But.... for the price point, it worked out our stay was most excellent.
