    Discover "Reliance," a captivating waterfront Harbor House cottage on Goat Island, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Newport Harbor. Experience front-row seats to the ever-changing vibrant harbor activity, where you can enjoy endless hours of entertainment as mega-yachts, vintage boats, day sailers, and powerboats pass directly by your home. This unique residence boasts four private decks, a rare garage, and a flexible 3-4 bedroom layout, and greater space between it and its neighbors thereby creating more privacy from nearby cottages. Natural light floods the home through abundant windows, providing water views from nearly every room. The open-plan first floor includes a kitchen, dining, and living area with sliders that lead to a large deck perched directly over the water —ideal for savoring the harbor’s beauty. You can even go fishing directly from this deck! The en-suite primary bedroom features two decks with stunning harbor views, allowing you to admire the water from the comfort of your bed. Additionally, there are two more bedrooms including one with a large private deck and a loft room with skylights which can be used as a fourth bedroom. Set within a gated community offering resort-like amenities such as a pool, tennis court and 24-hour security, "Reliance" merges the privacy of a single-family home with the conveniences of a condo. Embrace waterfront coastal elegance and the vibrant Newport Harbor lifestyle in this extraordinary residence offered furnished.
