    What's special

    Set on one of the Peninsula’s deeper oceanfront lot segments, with approximately 102.5 feet of depth, this boardwalk-front residence offers roughly 3,669 square feet, sweeping Pacific views, a generous brick patio steps from the sand, and an unusually capable parking package: a three-car garage plus two additional outside spaces. The professionally decorated interior was comprehensively refreshed in 2018, including the kitchen, flooring, primary bath, and guest bedrooms. Wide ocean-facing doors connect the main living spaces to the patio for everyday coastal living and entertaining. The open kitchen features a custom marble island, Viking range, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. An ocean-view office adjoining the primary suite provides a dedicated work-from-home retreat, while the large flex room—currently arranged for billiards—can serve as a media room, den, studio, or additional gathering space. Additional features include a tankless water heater and vaulted ceilings in the three-car garage. Positioned along the boardwalk west of Newport Pier and a short walk from Newport Elementary, 1228 W Oceanfront combines deep-lot scale, flexible interiors, broad ocean views, and parking for five vehicles in a package that is difficult to replicate on the Peninsula. Property being advertised as furnished with the sale.
