The home
About 319 Grand Canal
This ultra-luxurious, soft Contemporary Balboa Island bay front home was designed by renowned architect, Fred M. Briggs, a man Architectural Digest named “one of the top 100 residential architects in the world”. A master of his craft, Briggs brings his trademark style to this home blending a limited amount of simple functional materials, contrasting limestone, teak, concrete, steel and walls of glass with a Michael Bondi metal staircase, Wrightian principles and the simplicity, fine detail and scale of Japanese design. From the moment you enter this home through three huge pivoting glass doors into its living room shrouded in floor to ceiling curved glass walls, viewing the well designed Siematic kitchen, to enjoying the master suite with its Shoji screen doors, embankment wall of teak built-ins, and round glass enclosed shower, to its cool roof top deck your senses will explode with the rich style of this home. Notably, this is one of the lowest priced waterfront homes in all of Newport Beach with a private dock and it is proximate to all of the fun of Balboa Island, which makes this one of the finest bayfront opportunites presently available.
