Harbor views stretch endlessly from this striking contemporary bayfront retreat on Balboa Peninsula, where architecture and setting merge to create a home of exceptional style and ease. A collaboration between its visionary owner and the late architect Kurt Donat, the residence sits on a coveted corner lot, capturing ever-changing panoramas of the turning basin, city lights, and beyond. Sliding glass doors open to a generous waterfront deck, blending indoor and outdoor living while framing the natural beauty of the harbor. Encompassing approximately 4,256 square feet, the thoughtfully designed layout includes a spacious great room that flows seamlessly into a chef’s kitchen with an oversized island, marble countertops, and English Sycamore cabinetry. The main level also offers a guest suite with a private bath, powder room, and an attached three-car garage. Upstairs, the primary suite spans the full width of the home, showcasing breathtaking water views, a fireplace, built-in workspace, and a limestone bath with a soaking tub. Four additional bedrooms, two baths, and a versatile loft complete the second level. Distinctive materials are woven throughout, including maple ceilings, mahogany floors, Venetian plaster, limestone, stainless steel railings, Brazilian Blue granite, and a zinc roof. Just beyond the patio, a private pier and dock, offering direct access to the harbor for sailing, paddleboarding, and endless waterfront adventures. Moments from Balboa’s vibrant shops, dining, and sandy beaches, this remarkable home embodies the essence of coastal living.
