Discover this treasure of a home in the center of the magical Balboa Island. Walk one way to Marine for the restaurants and shops, walk the other way for the famous ferry ride. At the north end of Sapphire there is a public pier for boat rides or kayaking. The home is a classic and stunning 3-story home on Sapphire and Park built by the well known Patterson Homes. The quintessential Dutch door greets your family and friends as you enter the spacious light filled South west corner home. The flower garden is beautifully planted with white, pink and red roses, several fruiting citrus trees and many flowers in the long flower beds along Park. Inside there are rich distressed hardwood floors, classic wood paneling details, a marble finish on the walls on the main floor, a timeless tin ceiling above the gourmet kitchen and a fabulous rooftop balcony on the 3rd floor with views all around the Island.
