A quintessential Balboa Island residence: well-maintained over the years, it is a bright, two-story cottage, ideally positioned on the highly desirable Apolena Avenue. Offering ease of access on and off the island, this home is also just two blocks away from the conveniences of Marine Avenue, making it both a great primary residence or a vacation getaway. With the bay front just a short stroll away, this home is an idyllic setting for enjoying the effortless coastal lifestyle. The thoughtful floor plan includes a versatile bonus room on the lower level which opens to the interior courtyard—a space that can easily be used as guest sleeping quarters or an office. A living room with a fireplace is cozy, a great space for cooler months, while the charming front patio is an ideal spot for socializing during warmer weather. With plenty of timeless charm, this property offers a chance to embrace the Balboa Island lifestyle.
