About This Home

As of December 2020

This Balboa Island traditional style home is straight from the pages of House Beautiful magazine which featured the home in its publication as one of its most stylish beach homes. Painstakingly crafted by its current owners and priced well below its land acquisition and building cost, this home is one of the finest ever built in Orange County. Located on an oversized interior corner lot, the home features over 4,200 square feet of living space and includes a spectacular roof top bay view deck with a fireplace and entertainment area; a dramatic and rare interior courtyard with a fireplace that opens to all of the major rooms of the house, a formal living room, formal dining room, a paneled office, family room, bar, bonus room, an island kitchen, butler’s pantry and an elegant master suite with a sitting room and fireplace. The finish materials are the “finest of the fine” and include rare marbles and limestones, mahogany woodwork, leather flooring, oak hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, silk wallpapers, paneling, and much more. All of the fun of Balboa Island: the bay beach, strolling the boardwalk, biking, sailing, swimming and the world famous “Fun Zone” and “Balboa Chocolate Covered Frozen Bananas” are just steps away.
