About this property
An incredible and truly unique opportunity for coastal living on the Balboa Peninsula! Located directly across from 10th Street Beach, this home enjoys an open view of Newport Bay with no homes directly in front. It is one of only nine single-family homes along this highly coveted stretch between 9th and 10th Streets that front directly toward the beach and bay. Simply walk out your front door, cross the street, and your toes are in the sand. Offering approximately 2,270 square feet on a 2,700 square foot lot, this home is ready for renovation and has been priced accordingly, creating an exceptional opportunity to make it your own. Reimagine the existing home and create the Newport Beach retreat you have always wanted, in a location that is difficult to replicate. The property also offers the rare convenience of a large three-car garage, an especially valuable feature on the Peninsula. Enjoy picturesque sunsets over Newport Bay and a front-row seat to the coastal lifestyle without the expense of owning directly on the water. The home's location on a higher-elevation portion of the Peninsula adds to its appeal. Just outside your door is 10th Street Beach, a neighborhood beach primarily enjoyed by locals, while everything that makes the Balboa Peninsula special is within easy reach. Walk, bike or cruise by golf cart to the boardwalk, Newport Beach Pier, Balboa Island Ferry, Balboa Fun Zone, Lido Marina Village, shops, restaurants and miles of beaches. During the holidays, enjoy a front-row view of the Newport Beach Christmas Boat Parade as it sails by, right from your front porch or living room window. Whether you envision a full-time residence, weekend beach house or an opportunity to create something entirely your own, 915 W. Bay Avenue offers a location and lifestyle that are increasingly hard to find in Newport Beach. This is a probate sale, full authority, no court confirmation is required and the estate can close within 21 days. It is being sold strictly “as-is” with no repairs and no credits for repairs, including no termite work or clearance.
