Why the Owner Chose Balboa Peninsula
The small town atmosphere of Balboa is rewarding. Park your car, walk to shopping, restaurants and endless recreation. Ride a bike to the Wedge for a picnic or stroll over to Balboa Island for lunch.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Walking along the Pacific Ocean accompanied by porpoises, pelicans and sea gulls is a delight --especially at sunset.
