Homes for Sale in Balboa Island - Newport
Balboa Island - Newport Real Estate & Homes for Sale in California
Comprised of a string of three man-made islands in Newport Harbor, California—Balboa Island, Little Balboa Island, and Collins Island—the community of Balboa Island is a luxury offshore paradise that sits near the commercially famous county of Orange. Approximately 3,000 residents live on just 0.2 square miles, making Balboa Island a close-knit community of shared interests. Home to families, retirees and professionals, Balboa Island features a safe, small town environment with a “Main Street” atmosphere.
Those who work and live on the island commute via golf cart or bicycle and for those heading for the mainland the island community is joined to Newport by a short two-lane bridge on the northeastern most part of Balboa Island. The privately-operated three-car Balboa Island Ferry provides access across the harbor to the Balboa Peninsula. Marine and Agate Avenue as well as the major thoroughfare of Jamboree Road that passes through Newport Beach and ends in Balboa Island form the commercial shopping strips of Balboa Island.
Surrounded by water, Balboa Island is a special spot for beachcombing, a stroll on the boardwalk for endless ocean views, jet skiing and boating. For landlubbers, rollerblading, biking and shopping the promenades lend to luxury beachfront living. Presenting one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in Southern California, Balboa Island offers smaller lots and luxury waterfront homes complete with beachside amenities, a virtual year-round summer and utopian lifestyle. | Balboa Island City Guide |
