About this home
Located on a street synonymous with extraordinary coastal living, 1021 Kings Road presents a rare opportunity to own a beautifully remodeled front-row residence with panoramic views of Newport Harbor’s turning basin, Catalina Island, the iconic Balboa Pavilion, and city lights. An impressive entry welcomes you into the meticulously maintained home, where a thoughtfully designed open floor plan maximizes the remarkable views. White oak flooring extends throughout the main level, while a wall of multi-slide Fleetwood doors opens to an expansive harbor-facing deck, connecting the interior with the outdoors. The living room is anchored by an oversized fireplace with a modern concrete surround and a striking beamed ceiling. The spacious dining area flows directly into the beautifully appointed kitchen, designed for entertaining and everyday living. A substantial center island features waterfall-edge quartz countertops, while premium stainless-steel appliances include a built-in side-by-side refrigerator, under-counter microwave, and 48-inch Wolf range with professional-grade hood. Custom cabinetry, open shelving, and a book-matched marble slab backsplash complete the space. Extending across the width of the home, the main-level deck provides space for dining and entertaining with views across Newport Harbor, Catalina Island, and the surrounding coastline. A secondary bedroom and full bathroom complete this level. Accessible by elevator, the lower level encompasses the remaining bedroom suites and additional living spaces. The oversized primary suite offers a private retreat with an adjoining loft ideal for an office, sitting area, or potential fourth bedroom. A pocket Fleetwood door provides added privacy between spaces. The spa-inspired primary bathroom features a freestanding soaking tub, walk-in shower, and generous wraparound closet with direct access to the laundry room. An additional en-suite bedroom opens to a second expansive deck spanning the width of the residence. A guest bathroom and wet bar complete the lower level, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Outside, the terraced backyard offers multiple areas for relaxing and gathering in the coastal climate. Ideally located just minutes from the beaches, harbor, dining, shopping, and amenities of Newport Beach, 1021 Kings Road combines a front-row location, panoramic views, sophisticated interiors, and a versatile floor plan in one of the city’s most sought-after settings.
Cliff Haven, located between Westcliff and Balboa Peninsula, is a coastal and residential Newport Beach neighborhood with blufftop views and harborfront streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Newport Boulevard and 17th Street corridor, where coffee counters, independent boutiques, and patio dining set a steady daytime pace. Mid-century ranch homes and updated coastal contemporaries line quiet blocks, while the edge streets open to the water and the Back Bay. Cliffside Park frames the bluff with lawns and a wide ocean-facing path. Newport Harbor’s marinas and moorings shape the daily backdrop, with sailboats and ferries in view. Cultural touchstones nearby include Sherman Library & Gardens, Lido Marina Village, and the Balboa Fun Zone.
