Walk to the Beach from an Eclectic, Cottage-style House

A beautiful white sandy beach just steps outside the front door the open floor plan layout is perfect for quality time together.

Close enough to the beach to hear the waves and far enough from Balboa Bl to not hear traffic noise. Front House - 2 bdrm/1 bath beach cottage decorated very beachy and fun. Great central location just a short walk to the Newport Pier, restaurants, grocery, movie theater, ice cream and more. Wonderful ocean view from the front room. Sit at the comfortable desk and enjoy views of the beach, check for waves, watch sailing regattas, or just people watch. Bedroom 1 - King Bed Bedroom 2 - Queen Bed & Twin Bed Back patio with sitting area, BBQ and full hot outdoor shower. Beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels, boogie boards and sand toys available. Washer/Dryer on the back patio. We rent our home while traveling but are always available by phone or text. Our neighbor is our care taker and will be on property to water plants and take out trash weekly. The beach is steps away and offers large white sandy beaches, great surfing (long or short board), and an 2.5 mile boardwalk for walks or bicycling. We have wonderful neighbors and no "party houses" adjacent to us. 29th Street is one of a handful of double wide streets with parking on both sides. Everything is within walking or bicycling distance. There are also buses (bus stop at the end of the block) and taxis. Additional bike rentals are available at the pier.

Maximum: (L) 190 in (H) 78", (W) 73" Street parking on 29th St is not metered but can be competitive so having the garage option is recommended. The Balboa Peninsula is very walk able and unless you are planning day trips, ride sharing to the home is a popular alternative. Grocery, every class of restaurant and bar, bicycle and sporting good rentals, boat rentals and charters are all within walking distance. Highly walkable location. Many guests do not bring a car. Bus stop at the end of the block and super easy Lyft and Uber access. The home is equipped with security cameras in the back alley and on the front sidewalk. Owners live adjacent so property is very clean and well maintained. This is not a party house and due to it's small size, occupancy including visitors is limited to 6 persons.
