Stunning one-of-a-kind Balboa Island home on beautiful Ruby Avenue. Remodeled completely in 2024, there are 5 bedrooms and 4 baths encompassing 2,794 square feet, significantly larger than most Island homes. The first level presents a large living room with fireplace, new chef's kitchen with quartz counters and top-of-the-line appliances, spacious dining room, new 3/4 bath, and a private interior patio with ultra-cool poly-wood decking. The second level showcases an elegant primary suite with fireplace and new spa-quality bath with quartz counters. Also upstairs are 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a serene family room with private rear staircase. The 3-car garage with epoxy floors is a rarity on the Island, and the front patio offers a sunny, relaxed space. Among the many upgrades to the home are luxury vinyl floors, quartz counters, new appliances, polished nickel cabinet and door hardware, custom closets by California Closets, Control4 Smart Home System, and custom window treatments. SELLER WILL CONSIDER FINANCING FOR QUALIFIED BUYER. 222 Ruby is a true gem; don't miss it!
