About This Home
As of April 2026Welcome to modern luxury on Balboa Island. This meticulously maintained home offers a refined, open-concept lifestyle designed for year-round enjoyment. Spanning approximately 2,423 square feet across three levels, this Ruby Street residence is ideally located just moments from the Village, with its charming shops and restaurants, as well as the Balboa Ferry. The main level features La Cantina doors spanning the entire frontage, opening to a front patio complete with a fire pit, beautiful landscaping, and fresh ocean breezes. The living room’s custom floor-to-ceiling steel and stone gas fireplace serves as a dramatic focal point and enhances the gourmet kitchen. The kitchen features white oak and teak cabinetry, Neolith quartz countertops, paneled Viking appliances, an extra-large island with a built-in microwave, a walk-in pantry, and an LED wine refrigerator. European white oak flooring throughout the home enhances the light-filled interiors. A main-level bedroom with an en-suite bath provides a convenient option for guests. The second level features a beautiful primary suite with its own deck, while the en-suite spa-like bath includes Brizo fixtures, a large soaking tub, a separate shower, and a walk-in closet. Also on this level are two additional bedrooms, one with its own en-suite bath, as well as a conveniently located laundry room.
The showstopper is the stunning third-level, partially enclosed deck with bay views. Approximately 1,000 square feet, it features a kitchen with a sink, dishwasher, quartz countertops, bar seating, a built-in BBQ grill, and a double-burner cooktop. Custom Fleetwood sliding doors create a cozy space in cooler months and open to provide seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining in warmer weather.
Additional highlights include a generous two-car garage with built-in storage and epoxy-coated flooring. The side yard is large enough to accommodate a golf cart.
