Ideally positioned on the prestigious North Bay Front of famed Balboa Island, this exceptional waterfront property offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, convenience, and breathtaking views. Situated on a coveted corner lot, the home boasts expansive harbor vistas from the main living area, primary suite, and rooftop deck. The main residence features an open-concept layout, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor living, a main-level bedroom, while the rooftop deck—complete with its own kitchenette—provides a spectacular setting for hosting guests against the backdrop of shimmering bay views. Adding to the property’s appeal, a separate one-bedroom back unit with a private entrance and patio offers versatility as a guest retreat, rental opportunity, or multigenerational living space. Thoughtfully designed, the home includes two laundry rooms, ensuring convenience for both dwellings. A standout feature is the highly sought-after 50-foot dock, which accommodates a large boat along with a side tie for a Duffy—ideal for enjoying the island’s charming waterways. Further enhancing its desirability, the property boasts a three-car garage with direct access from Amethyst Avenue, providing rare and ample parking—an invaluable asset on the island. Located just moments from Balboa Island’s Main Street, residents can indulge in boutique shopping, renowned dining, and the vibrant coastal lifestyle. This is coastal living at its finest—a rare opportunity to own a premier bayfront home in one of Southern California’s most iconic destinations.
