Imagine a delightful Balboa Island family vacation home that is the perfect combination of vintage Balboa Island charm – with all the comforts of modern updates - in a reasonable price range too! SLP11916 10% TOT 7 Night Minimum
Within walking distance to the beach, shops, restaurants, and all the fun and happenings on Balboa Island, this is an ideal location for your vacation with family and/or friends.
A charming, inviting brick patio, with Mediterranean style landscaping, a table, and a barbecue for al fresco dining welcome you to this 2600 square foot 4 bedroom, 3 bath
original beach house with knotty pine paneling in the living and 2 downstairs bedrooms - giving this cottage its warm, cozy feeling.
The expansive living room has high vaulted ceilings, a gas fireplace, a ceiling fan, and a large flat screen TV mounted above the fireplace – with lots of room to enjoy family or catch-up time.
The living room opens to a beautiful, recently remodeled kitchen with granite countertops, a chef’s range, and a French door refrigerator. There is a dining area in this great room between the living room and kitchen. One great room where everyone can be together!
An added bonus! There is also a sun room where you can relax and read that leads to the completely new upstairs where there is a expansive master king bedroom, with a full en suite bath, a flat screen TV, a ceiling fan and plenty of room to read or relax.
Next to the master bedroom is another loft type of area with another king bed and a beautifully updated bathroom with a rain shower and marble tiles, a large flat screen TV, and a comfortable chair too.
There are also two bedrooms downstairs – one with a double bed and the other with two single beds. There is also a full bathroom downstairs that has been completely upgraded with honey onyx tiles. All bedrooms and baths are furnished with luxurious linens for your ultimate comfort.
This wonderful vacation home rounds itself out with WiFi, and a double car garage in the back so you don’t need to worry about parking. There are also 4 cruising bikes for guests to use, and if needed, this home also has central heating.
A vintage, fun island with lots of things to do and a beautiful home on Newport Bay where everything is wonderfully easy – all you need do is add the people, the food, and the fun to create a memorable vacation for all!
THINGS WE LOVE ABOUT THIS PROPERTY!
It is an ideal location on gorgeous Balboa Island in the middle of Newport Bay where the main street is a throwback to the 50’s with shopping, malt shops (literally) and lots of restaurants.
Balboa Island Ferry, two streets away, will take you to Balboa Beach Pier, where you can relax and watch the sunset over the island, or even play cards.
Upgraded, modern, well stocked kitchen and bathrooms with all the amenities that might not be expected at this price range.
Its front porch where you can relax, watch the goings on of this very cozy old-fashioned street, watch the sunset, eat outside, and play cards with friends.
