Live where the surf meets the story. This freshly updated one-bedroom bayside beauty sits steps from the Fun Zone, ferry, and the nostalgia-drenched charm of iconic Newport Beach. Perched on the coveted Balboa Peninsula, this apartment blends tasteful updates with the vintage charisma of pre-mid-century design—because character never goes out of style. New appliances in the recently updated kitchen make coastal dining a snap. No need to go out – it&#39's all right here.

Channel your inner John Wayne (yes, he walked these very steps) as you stroll the shoreline, or unwind on your private slice of beachfront sand, beverage in hand, while the sun dips behind the pier. Need a little more serenity? Let the sound of waves against the private dock lull you into a state of permanent vacation.

Come for the price, stay for the views—but don’t linger. Beachfront leases like this are unicorn-rare and gallop away fast.
