Property Description

Perfectly positioned in Irvine Terrace, one of Corona Del Mar’s most coveted neighborhoods, 1524 Dolphin is a stunning expression of elevated organic coastal living. Reimagined and rebuilt from the studs in 2025, this single-level residence blends organic textures, warm tones, and architectural refinement, creating an atmosphere of effortless California luxury. Designed by Laura Brophy of Brophy Interiors the home spans approximately 2,765 square feet with three bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, combining natural materials—limestone, oak, and plaster—to achieve a timeless aesthetic. Light filters through sliding glass doors, connecting airy interior spaces with tranquil outdoor living. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen combines artistry and utility with custom oak cabinetry, Dekton countertops by Cosentino, and a full suite of Thermador professional appliances. Adjacent living spaces feature hand-applied plaster detailing, creating a sense of serenity and craftsmanship that carries throughout. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with stonewashed linen wall-coverings, honed limestone flooring, and a custom curved Taj Mahal vanity in the spa-inspired bathroom. Two additional bedrooms are thoughtfully designed with layered wall textures and bespoke finishes. Outdoors, lush landscaping and mature olive trees frame a private garden featuring a pool, spa, fire pit, and limestone trough fireplace—a perfect setting for entertaining or unwinding beneath the coastal sky. Reclaimed wood garage doors and gates add character and warmth, while Control4 smart home integration provides modern convenience. Located in the heart of Irvine Terrace, moments from Fashion Island, Balboa Island, and Corona Del Mar Village, this home captures the very best of Newport Beach—sophisticated, sunlit, and endlessly inviting. Shown by appointment only.
