About this home

The ultimate expression of Newport Beach’s enviable waterfront lifestyle awaits at this classic Mid-Century Modern custom home on guard-gated Linda Isle. With a location on the exclusive island’s preferred western edge, the residence offers magnificent views of Newport Harbor, evening lights, sunsets, and sailboats and yachts that gently glide by. A bayfront terrace includes a private dock for a vessel up to appx. 57’ and provides an outstanding location for impressive entertaining along the water’s edge. Boasting eight spacious bedrooms and seven-and-one-half baths, the generously proportioned home offers an equally welcoming introduction thanks to custom artist-crafted metal and glass gates that open to a large entry courtyard. Grand modern style continues indoors, where a two-story foyer is anchored by a stunning spiral staircase that appears to float on its own while illuminated by floor-to-ceiling windows. Harbor views are enjoyed upon entry to the open and bright residence, which spans approximately 4,598 square feet. Water-view entertaining is destined to be enjoyed in a fireplace-warmed living room and dining room area that opens to the bayside terrace and hosts a step-down walk-in wet bar with wine refrigerator and new quartz countertops. Brand-new quartz also graces the counters and backsplash in a large kitchen that displays frameless white cabinetry, a nook, peninsula bar, two four-burner cooktops, and a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator. Two en suite bedrooms are located on this level and include one that is perfect as a home office. A large landing at the top of the staircase leads to six more bedrooms, including two that share a bath, an en suite with balcony overlooking the courtyard, and an en suite with spacious bath and harbor-view balcony. The primary suite is enormous and features double entry doors, an intimate lounge, private bath, fireplace-warmed sitting area, and priceless bay views from indoors and a wide balcony above the rear terrace.

Condition Rating
Good

This 1969 Mid-Century Modern home is in good condition, offering a move-in ready experience with no immediate renovations required. The kitchen has seen significant recent updates, featuring 'brand-new quartz' countertops and backsplash, modern frameless white cabinetry, and high-end appliances like a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator and modern cooktops. While the double wall ovens appear to be an older model, the overall kitchen aesthetic is fresh and functional. The main living areas boast clean, large-format tile flooring and modern recessed lighting. However, the bathrooms, while clean and functional, show signs of being older with dated light fixtures and one featuring a tiled countertop, suggesting they were renovated 15-30 years ago rather than recently. Despite these older elements, the property is well-maintained, bright, and offers stunning views, aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years in key areas, with some components updated but not a full recent renovation throughout.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Unrivaled Waterfront Location & Views: Positioned on guard-gated Linda Isle's preferred western edge, offering magnificent panoramic views of Newport Harbor, sunsets, and city lights from multiple vantage points.
Exclusive Private Dock: Features a private bayfront dock capable of accommodating a vessel up to approximately 57 feet, a premium and highly sought-after waterfront amenity.
Expansive & Flexible Layout: Boasts eight spacious bedrooms and seven-and-a-half baths within 4,598 square feet, providing extensive living space and versatile room configurations, including ground-floor en suites.
Modernized Kitchen & Amenities: Recently updated kitchen and wet bar with brand-new quartz countertops, frameless white cabinetry, high-end appliances (Sub-Zero), and a wine refrigerator, enhancing functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Distinctive Architectural Style & Grandeur: A classic Mid-Century Modern custom home featuring a dramatic two-story foyer, stunning spiral staircase, and floor-to-ceiling windows, creating an open, bright, and architecturally significant ambiance.

Cons

Property Age & Potential for Further Updates: Built in 1969, the home's age suggests that while some areas are updated, other systems or finishes may require significant modernization to meet contemporary luxury standards, potentially incurring additional costs.
Modest Lot Size for Price Point: The 5,580 square foot lot, while waterfront, is relatively compact for a property valued at nearly $20 million in this exclusive market, potentially limiting expansive outdoor living areas beyond the bayfront terrace.
Significant Monthly Association Fees: The $855 monthly association fee represents a considerable ongoing expense, which could impact the total cost of ownership and buyer appeal.
