About 1516 E Ocean Front
Oceanfront living on the Peninsula Point—set on a rare oversized lot—this reimagined Nantucket-style beach home captures the spirit of Newport Beach coastal luxury with front-row whitewater views and effortless indoor-outdoor flow. With the beach at your doorstep, the residence offers a premier oceanfront address paired with a lifestyle defined by surf, sunsets, and seaside ease. A charming garden courtyard entry creates a sense of arrival, opening to expansive ocean-view living, dining, and kitchen spaces where walls of glass frame the Pacific and French doors lead to a wide beachfront patio—ideal for al fresco dining, weekend brunches, and sunset entertaining. The flexible five-bedroom layout includes a main-level guest suite, while the upstairs oceanfront primary retreat features a private sitting room or office and an expansive terrace with panoramic sunrise-to-sunset coastline views. A spacious bonus/media room adds versatility for gatherings, work-from-home, or game nights after a day at the beach. Four-car parking—anchored by an oversized two-car garage—provides an exceptional Peninsula amenity. From early mornings at The Wedge and bike rides along the Newport Beach boardwalk to paddle boarding on the bay and evenings on your own oceanfront patio, this home delivers the full Peninsula Point lifestyle. Turnkey, oceanfront, and set on an oversized parcel, this Nantucket-inspired residence is a rare Newport Beach opportunity for those seeking a move-in-ready beachfront home in one of the coast’s most sought-after communities.
