1523 Dolphin

About this home

Perched on one of the most coveted bluff-front streets in Irvine Terrace, 1523 Dolphin Terrace is a masterclass in coastal elegance. This custom, single-level residence was designed to frame a truly staggering panorama—a sweeping view that stretches across the activity of Newport Harbor and Balboa Island to the vast Pacific, Catalina Island, and the distant silhouette of the Palos Verdes Peninsula. Inside, the home feels light and airy, defined by soaring ceilings and massive walls of glass that blur the line between the curated interiors and the horizon. The open-concept layout flows effortlessly, centered around a chef’s kitchen and expansive living areas that make entertaining feel both grand and intimate. Whether you’re hosting a dinner party or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the sparkling harbor and ocean views serve as your constant backdrop. The primary suite acts as a private sanctuary, complemented by two additional bedrooms that offer plenty of space for guests or a home office. However, the true heart of the home lies just beyond the sliding glass doors. The outdoor terrace is a showstopper, featuring a sparkling infinity-edge pool and spa that seem to spill directly into the blue of the Pacific. It’s the ultimate spot for watching the sunset or enjoying the coastal breeze. Beyond the front door, you’re perfectly positioned to enjoy the very best of the Newport Beach lifestyle. You are just moments away from the designer boutiques of Fashion Island, the yacht clubs of the harbor, and the charming local favorites within Corona del Mar Village. This is a rare opportunity to lease a premier bluff-front residence in one of the region's most prestigious enclaves.
