Balboa Island Cottages in Newport Beach has a lot of historic charm and personality to one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city.  The homes in this area were first built here over 100 years ago and still remain the original historic character from the early 1900's.  When visiting the island for the first time you will be surprised by all the many architectural styles that can found on this small island.  As you can imagine real estate and the land that the homes sits on is very expensive so that is why you will find so many of the homes located very closely together.  If you don't like living very close to your neighbor then this is probably not the right community for you.
