121 Diamond presents today's buyers with various options. The existing duplex could be remodeled and enjoyed for many years to come with either a modest budget or a high end budget. The existing front main home features 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, but could be easily converted to a 3 bedroom main home. The rear 1 bedroom unit sits above the 2 car garage and separate parking space facing the rear alley. One could potentially convert the two units into one single family home with 4 or even 5 bedrooms without adding square footage. Alternatively, many buyers are looking for a special lot to tear down the existing building to create the Balboa island home of their dreams from the ground up. Whatever you decide to do with it, you'll love this wonderful location just down the block from the water. Homes in this price point sell instantly, so you'll want to see this one right away. According to City of Newport Beach website: Short-Term Lodging is allowed subject to zoning compliance, but there is not currently an active permit.
Both the main home, and the 1 bedroom apartment have fantastic old Newport character and charm, with high vaulted ceilings on the second level.
