Framed by serene golf course views in the coveted Sea Island community, this beautifully remodeled townhome captures an effortless blend of refined design, natural light, and coastal-inspired elegance. Thoughtfully designed, this two-bedroom end unit includes an additional room with built-in closet space, offering flexibility as a home office, den, or potential third bedroom.
Anchoring the main living level, an expansive designer kitchen showcases porcelain slab countertops, a waterfall-edge island, custom cabinetry, brass hardware, open shelving, and stainless steel appliances — all striking a beautiful balance of refined style and everyday function. Seamless flow connects the kitchen to the adjoining living and dining areas, where vaulted ceilings, white shiplap detailing, wide-plank oak flooring, and abundant natural light create a bright, inviting atmosphere. Just off the kitchen, a guest powder bath and private laundry add everyday convenience.
Upstairs, the sun-filled primary suite offers a beautifully appointed en suite bath with a spacious walk-in shower and additional closet space. Nearby, a secondary bedroom and full bath complete the upper level. With no one above or below, the residence lives with a sense of privacy and ease, further enhanced by custom woodwork, central air conditioning, and thoughtfully curated finishes throughout.
Additional conveniences include detached two-car secured parking and private storage. Moments from the community tennis court, pool, spa, and Big Canyon Country Club, this residence also enjoys close proximity to world-class shopping, dining, beaches, and the best of Newport Beach.
