Newport Beach 30 Hillsdale Drive # 19

30 Hillsdale Drive is a standout residence in Belcourt Terrace, the exclusive enclave within the prestigious Newport Beach community of Belcourt. This expansive 3,478 square-foot home boasts four bedrooms, three baths and one powder, a high-ceilinged, open-format ground floor that includes differentiated formal living, dining, kitchen and family rooms, expansive entry area and second-floor landing, and a 3-car garage with EV accommodations. Multiple renovations have resulted in designer appointments like white-oak wide-plank floors, scene-setting light fixtures, a freestanding soaking tub and array of rich finishes. The kitchen, with its adjacent exterior cook station, is a chef’s playground; it includes top-of-the-line appliances, Cambria stone work surfaces and marble island, abundant white cabinetry, and a breakfast nook drenched in sunlight. The indoor/outdoor experience is this home’s greatest feature. The largest in the neighborhood, this expansive backyard features a gallery of mature redwood, liquid amber, jacaranda and coral trees in beds of greenery and blossoms. The long stretch of grass leads to a second entertaining area or half-basketball court, depending on preference. A built-in fire pit, seating and dining areas and cement-slab BBQ station, within this oasis, create an elegant setting for social gatherings. Another remarkable feature of this residence is the scale of the living quarters, all four of which are substantial. The primary suite is set apart from the others and spills into a spa-like en-suite bathroom, with a generous walk-in closet. The landing with its built-in desk and cabinets and copious light, leads to three more bedrooms, one of which is an additional en-suite. This 24-hour guard-gated community is renowned for its lush landscape, both inside its walls and along the public-facing MacArthur Boulevard. In addition to these physical features, Belcourt Terrace provides its residents a large pool, spa, and entertainment area within the interior of the circle, just a short distance from the house. The proximity of Belcourt gives homeowners ideal access to the celebrated draws of Newport Beach: the Upper Newport Bay Nature Preserve and Ecological Reserve (aka “The Back Bay”), Fashion Island Shopping Center, destination dining options, John Wayne Airport, and some of the finest schools - and beaches - in Southern California.$3,150,000
