2772 BAYSHORE DRIVE, NEWPORT BEACH
Among the myriad waterfront locations on Newport Harbor, this home in Bayshores provides the very best harbor and main turning basin views
— the most sought after and valuable views on this bay. For decades, homes lining the waterfront in Bayshores have attracted the most discerning of bay front buyers searching for the ultimate harbor view. This home in particular also has a notable celebrity pedigree, having been a summer destination of some of Hollywood’s most well known actors.
The property’s preferred east-facing exposure is among the rarest on this harbor and enjoys a wonderful, balanced sunlight throughout the day in its waterside garden. At night, the lights of the Balboa Pavilion can be seen reflecting across the main turning basin — a most delightful view.
The skyline of Newport Center and the mountains to the east are also part of the panoramic view. Rarely on the market, this is one of only 14 waterfront homes in Bayshores with a private boat dock.
This pride of ownership home has served the owners well and could be further improved with modest and selective updating. There are also expansion possibilities that will maximize the parcel. The informal plan includes a great room, hardwood floors, a waterfront dining area, a family room, a large kitchen and an elevator. Five bedrooms upstairs include a master and guest suite on the bay side facing the water. Two fireplaces warm the great room and the master bedroom. The extra wide lot also has a deeper than average waterside terrace with swimming pool. The private dock was recently rebuilt and will accommodate a vessel up to 70’ in length.
Bayshores is a private, gated waterfront community on Newport Harbor. Centrally located, it is adjacent to the Balboa Bay Club and convenient to most of Newport. A favorite of many locals, the mature, established feel of the community and its private beaches are some of its most notable features. Sailing, boating, swimming and days at the beach await a new owner here in this very special waterfront location.
