About This Home

As of May 2016

Inspired by the residential architectural designs of Greene and Greene, this period perfect Craftsman home overlooks the coveted Newport Harbor Back Bay. “Spring has sprung!” on this very private lot nestled just a few homes east of Mariners on Galaxy Drive. The front exterior wall and entryway pilasters are built of clinker bricks and accented with cream-colored fieldstone. The entry pathway was created from turn-of-the-century cobblestones which were commissioned from a street in Chicago. As you pass through the plant-laden courtyard pool you are greeted with artful-glass lights and transoms crafted by famed Theodore Ellison. The living room fireplace was designed with a copper-and-tile surround drawing inspiration from the Greene and Greene Blacker House. Adjacent to the modern Craftsman kitchen, with teak cabinetry and mahogany trim, is the formal dining room, which is further illuminated by light passing through a large aquarium from the home’s sky-lit foyer. Offering five oversized bedrooms and four bathrooms, this approximate 4,000 square foot residence has a comfortable area for everyone. Welcome yourself home to 1508 Galaxy Drive, a light-filled abode in which the Craftsman tradition coexists with the popular contemporary California lifestyle.
