Incredible opportunity to own a prime oceanfront property with fully approved plans by renowned architect Chris Light! This property is perfectly positioned on the boardwalk with panoramic Catalina Island, sunset, coastal, and white water views and sits on a block where the rear alley dead-ends on both sides, offering enhanced privacy and less traffic. Located just steps from the sand at 6th Street—known for its great wave break and nearby lifeguard tower—and within walking or biking distance to the Balboa Pier, shops, and restaurants. A rare chance to build your dream home in one of Newport Beach’s most desirable oceanfront locations!
