About this single-family home
Destined to be without equal, this showpiece property designed by architect, Robert Ensign, in Cliffhaven of Newport Beach blends Spanish Revival architecture, luxurious Santa Barbara-style aesthetics, and every amenity imaginable on a rare 22,600+ sq. ft. double lot to evoke an ambiance of warmth and grandeur. Upon entry into a 2-story foyer, the home’s classic, enduring design presents itself in the beamed ceilings, brilliant tiling, custom iron work, and arched passageways seen throughout. The thoughtful floor plan invites an abundance of natural light into the open-concept main floor featuring a stately library with wood paneled walls and fireplace; dining room; and dual living spaces that flow with ease to an expansive terrace and the gourmet’s kitchen with Carrara marble countertops, La Cornue range, and butler’s pantry. Equally impressive, the lower level offers private guest or maid’s quarters; a fitness center; and a spacious media room with bar that opens through accordion doors to the ultimate backyard. A sport court, pool, spa, putting green, enormous lawn, and loggia with fireplace and outdoor kitchenette coalesce to become an entertainer’s paradise. Completing the residence are 3 additional ensuite bedrooms and a master suite with office, and incredible bath adorned in Carrara marble. Additional highlights include a 3-car garage, built-in sound system, and a premier location that backs to Newport's Environmental Nature Center for unrivaled beauty & privacy.
