the ultimate beach house in newport beach

Located at the world famous "Wedge" on the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, this home has the ultimate location. Not only is this a premier surfing and body surfing spot, but the beach setting is a virtual paradise.  

As one of the 8 homes featured on the Newport Harbor Home Tour, the outward appearance of this european style facade is only a cloak to its interior decor.  

The interior is light, airy and beachy. It's California beach living at its best, with subtle references to cottage French and Swedish decor, especially in the master bedroom. And, the view of the Pacific and intoxicating ocean breezes are priceless.

   The cozy great room sets 

the tone for this beach house... 

with an oyster shell chandelier 

in the dining area.

 The views from here are spectacular.

 Upstairs, the master bedroom 

is done in a neutral palette,

with just a hint of a soft ocean blue.

The large sitting area is across from the bed.

The hand-painted ceiling in an adjacent room 

reminds me of something you'd see in

 an early California mission. 

I love the chaise lounge centered in the room.

Here's the view of the Wedge

from the master bedroom,

and looking out toward Catalina Island.

The guest room features

a variety of mismatched

reclaimed wood planks on two walls.

I love the gorgeous teal and orange color scheme

in another guest room.

It's so elegant for a beach house.

Don't you love this old crate used for the orchids?

Seashells and coral highlight the antique books.

Lovely coastal details

highlight the shelves.

The rooftop deck has

all the amenities for entertaining

plus almost 360 degree

views of Newport.

 

enjoy your weekend ...
