Great couch and chairs. Open concept. Great French doors. Garage space fit our landcruiser which doesn’t always happen on the island. The only down side was that the two units do not connect in a convenient way. It was fine for adult children but could be hard with little ones. ##### Ann P.

Situated perfectly on the island, it provides residents with picturesque views and convenient access to local amenities, making it an ideal retreat for those seeking both comfort and convenience. The decoration of the house is flawless, showcasing thoughtful design choices and attention to detail that create a welcoming and aesthetically pleasing environment. Each room is tastefully furnished, blending modern elegance with cozy charm, making it a haven for relaxation and entertaining. One of the standout features of this property is its prime placement on the island, offering a serene setting away from the hustle and bustle while still remaining close to the vibrant community. Whether you enjoy leisurely walks along the waterfront or exploring local shops and restaurants, this location provides ample opportunities for enjoyable activities. However, it is important to address the major drawback: the lack of air conditioning. While the room is equipped with a ceiling fan, it’s worth noting that fans only circulate air and do not lower the temperature. During the hot summer months, this could lead to discomfort, especially during heatwaves when the temperature rises significantly. Potential renters or buyers should consider whether they are comfortable with this aspect, particularly if they are sensitive to heat. Overall, this property excels in location and aesthetic appeal, making it a highly desirable residence for those who can tolerate the absence of air conditioning. If you do not mind the lack of AC, this house on Balboa Island could be considered an ideal choice for a charming and well-located home. ##### Ed M. ### 8/10 Good #### Clark M. 20 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### S D ##### Clark M.
