Crowning one of Corona del Mar’s finest ocean-view homesites, this beautifully updated and maintained coastal cottage offers spectacular unobstructed vistas of the Pacific Ocean, Newport Harbor, Balboa Peninsula, Catalina Island and city lights. The highly coveted and rare lot is desired for its premium blufftop location above Bayside Drive, placing it within minutes of beaches, the water, Fashion Island and Corona del Mar’s shops and restaurants. Spectacular panoramic views embellish both levels of the three-bedroom, three-bath home, which reveals a classic California beach style with a Dutch entry door, vaulted-open-beam ceilings, private entry patio with enormous shade tree, and large picture windows. Wood flooring adorns the top floor, where a great room with fireplace and built-in dining area opens to an upgraded kitchen with skylight, stone countertops, white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, pantry and open shelving. One bedroom is located on this floor, and two more are featured downstairs, including a split-level bedroom with sitting room, deck access and separate sleeping areas. Unparalleled ocean and harbor views continue in an oversized primary suite that hosts a sitting area, walk-through closet, rain shower, vessel sinks, and view-enriched sun and shade decks with a fire pit and hot tub.
