The home

About 981 Bayside Cove 405

Rarely does a true bayfront come available in Bayside Cove, and almost never on the main level. Set inside the gates of one of Newport Beach's quietest bayfront communities at the entrance to Balboa Island, this corner-position three bedroom, two bath residence sits directly on the water with sweeping views. The kitchen and dining room open into the family room, which opens again to a deck built for sunsets and easy waterfront living. A direct access two car garage places you steps from your own front door, a rare convenience on the main level. New paint and new carpet throughout allow the next owner to move in comfortably and update on their own timeline and to their own taste. Residents enjoy a recently redone bayfront pool set directly on the water that rivals anything found at a resort. Homes on the water in Bayside Cove trade quietly and infrequently. This one deserves to be seen in person.
