About the property

Built in 1920 and belonging to the same family for almost 100 years, this newly renovated and decorated, spectacular 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom, South bay front home sits on the widest point of Newport Harbor with stunning harbor channel views down to Corona Del Mar and the Balboa Pavilion.

When you walk into the first level of the home you are welcomed by the newly remodeled kitchen with fresh white cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. There is an island with 4 bar stools perfect for a small lunch gathering in the kitchen or a larger dining table area next to the living room. The downstairs living room and dining area are a single space that is surrounded by floor to ceiling windows, so you can take in every view that Newport Harbor has to offer. Then walk out onto the large patio and enjoy the good life! This stunning front patio is fully equipped with comfortable lounging furniture and a stainless steel gas BBQ grill. It is the perfect spot to grill up some burgers and drink a cocktail while enjoying the sight of the boats cruising by.

The first bedroom is located downstairs with a queen sized bed and a full bathroom with a walk in shower. There is also another half bathroom on the first level.

On the second level of the home there are two bedrooms that could both be considered master bedrooms with king sized beds and master bathrooms inside of them. There are two other bedrooms perfect for another couple with a queen sized bed and another one great for children or additional guests containing a bunk bed with a twin sized mattress on top and a full on the bottom. These two bedrooms share access to another bathroom. At the top of the stairs to the left, there is another large living room with plenty of seating and a wall of floor to ceiling windows you can open to enjoy the views and breeze of the beautiful harbor.

Located at the end of Marine Avenue, you are truly steps away from all of the best shops and restaurants that Balboa Island provides. Come and enjoy all Balboa Island has to offer in this stunning home which also includes use of a large dock and direct access to the Island Boardwalk for people watching or to launch the kayak and stand up paddle boards included with this bay front beauty.

Best location on the island and so roomy!

Dena Goodman

Our family loves this house! So many great memories! It’s our happy place. The view from the living room upstairs and patio down stairs is the best. No need to leave the house but when you do, it’s only steps for a quaint breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s the best. We missed the kitty that used to come visit?! We named him Sylvester. So much room to spread out!

We have lived in the Newport Beach area for many years but never stayed on Balboa Island. We chose 1400 S Bayfront for a family 70th bday complete with a sand castle erected on the beach in his honor. The home is very comfortable to include a large well stocked kitchen that accommodates prep, cooking and wine tasting by all. There are enough bedrooms and bathrooms to allow our group to stretch out and relax. The upstairs living room was the BEST view Balboa offers and you won't want to miss the sunset!To say the location of this home is desirable is an understatement. The grocery market was just a block away, we walked to coffee shops and we never drove our car out to dinner. This home is clean, organized and the bedding is lovely. Make this you next vacation rental in the Newport Beach area. 5/5 STARS.

We have a big family & this beach house was perfect for us. Everyone had their own bedroom & bathroom & privacy but could come together and play cards games & have our meals together. Very spacious with a gorgeous view over looking the bay. Our grandkids were over joyed to see a seal, dolphin, fish & crabs. We had a tough year with illness & surgeries so this was the perfect place for our family to come together & relax & be together & make some lifetime memories. We will definitely be back. Thank you for making everything so easy for our stay. We appreciate it.

My family had an exceptional week on Balboa Island at this home. It was clean and included everything we needed/wanted. The view was amazing and we enjoyed the dock access. We had to text about several needed items and someone came out immediately with needed supplies and repair. We couldn't have been happier with our experience.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this home for the 3rd time now. The location just can't be beat! We all enjoyed gathering in the upstairs den to play games, visit, read and just enjoy the beautiful view of the harbor. It's a special place!
