A rare offering, this extremely appealing, shingled, New England-style custom residence in the gated community of Bayshores provides the ultimate family living environment. Built in 2002, this home has been freshly painted and features gleaming walnut hardwood floors, wainscoting, built-ins, and other designer flourishes throughout. The open, spacious and light plan is incredibly flexible and includes living and dining areas opening to a private terrace and a serene entry garden. A gourmet kitchen and ground-level bedroom suite (ideal for an office too) complete this floor. Upstairs, the central core is a large family room with built-in study area, warmed by another fireplace (one of three). The master is comprised of four rooms including an oversized main room, adjacent sitting room, office, and oversized bath with walk-in dressing closet. Two additional bedroom suites and the laundry room (conveniently located) complete this floor. The house also has a three car garage. Bayshores is the preeminent, gated, waterfront community on Newport Harbor. It includes two private beaches, a park - all within proximity to Newport’s most desirable amenities.
