When you think about quintessential Newport Beach living, Newport Peninsula is top of mind. The Newport Peninsula has a tight-knit beach community vibe. From the families to the neighborhood, you really can’t get better than the location of 609 W. Bay Ave Newport Beach. Smack dab in the middle of Newport Beach Pier and Balboa Pier, a short walk to The Balboa Island Ferry and the Fun Zone. This location checks all the boxes. Residents of the Newport Peninsula enjoy an unmatched coastal lifestyle. They can easily access the beach for sunbathing, surfing, swimming, or just a relaxing walk. It is a rare location where, in a matter of minutes, you can be in the ocean or the Bay sailing or boating—the pinnacle of Coastal living. Water Activities are everywhere. Steps away from the iconic Newport Harbor Yacht Club and a short walk to the beach, this area and home will be an incredible opportunity to buy into a generational living community that rarely sees homes like this offered for sale. Breathtaking sunsets and cool ocean breezes are part of daily life here on the Peninsula. First time on the market since 1982. This rare property won’t be around long.
