Hey Luxury Home Show!

I'm your host Ariana and today we're coming to you from Newport Beach, California.

This is 1524 Dolphin Terrace and it is the epitome of location, location, location.

We are moments away from Balboa Island,

Fashion Island, Corona Del Mar Village.

We are here perched in the very coveted neighborhood of Irvine Terrace.

This home is designed by Laura Brophy.

You have to see it to believe it.

Come on in.

And check out just behind me this floor-to-ceiling limestone wall.

It just helps you feel that indoor-outdoor concept even more.

And come on, this view out of the bar area is like a stunning picture frame of this backyard.

Along here you have a beautiful lap pool you could come and soak,

enjoy with your friends.

This area just embodies the best of Orange County coastal life.

This home features all natural materials like limestone,

oak, and hand-applied plaster that's balanced with timeless textures and warm tones.

You'll see here a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience is opened up with these beautiful glass doors.

Most homes that have an indoor-outdoor concept maybe only show it with doors,

but this one also has this open bar from the kitchen

as well as the opening from the primary suite directly out onto the pool.

this single-level residence offers just under 2,800 square feet of curated living space,

three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms,

but boy does it feel massive.

Dolphin Terrace is truly the crown jewel of the community,

a coveted flat street lined with architecturally significant homes,

minutes away from everything you'd want access to in Newport Beach.

The front of the home immediately sweeps you up into this elevated coastal living

that Lara Brophy Interiors is so well known for.

First off, you have a little seating area,

and I kid you not,

from here I can see the ocean.

Imagine sitting out here enjoying a martini at the end of the day

and enjoying those west coast sunsets right in front of you.

Just stunning.

Come with me over here as we walk along these beautiful tumbled pavers.

It has this very lived in,

very relaxed look while having very elevated,

lighter tones all throughout this frontage.

One of my favorite parts of this is this reclaimed wood garage door.

It just immediately makes you feel that it's so timeless,

it's lived in, and it has history to it,

even though it was just redone in 2025.

Speaking of the color palette,

I absolutely love the contrast of the lights and darks throughout the entire home.

Come on in.

the very first thing you notice about this home is how

flooded with natural sunlight it is it just looks like a breath of fresh California air

but before I show you the spacious open concept over here

I want to show you the first of three bedrooms just

off to the left here is the powder room you immediately

get a sense of the natural materials used throughout the entire home I love these warm tones,

all the textures, all the variation.

It just gives it so much personality and light.

And now coming over to the first bedroom.

First thing you notice is this west-facing floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

I can literally see the Pacific Ocean from this bedroom.

This could easily serve as a bedroom,

but it could also be a beautiful home office.

You also have an attached bathroom and closet.

This entry gives you that perfect squeeze and release into this gorgeous, gorgeous living space.

Beautiful living room where you can sit and relax.

Perfect space to be able to have conversation where it feels cozy but also spacious to have several guests over,

having a party maybe having a little cocktail hour before your dinner party over here we have a beautiful fireplace

and of course above it you have plenty of space for a framed television to watch movies with the family

or the big game with your friends

and check out just behind me this floor to ceiling limestone wall it just helps you feel

that indoor outdoor concept even more as you can see this home was designed to have family

and gathering and socializing at the heart of the living experience.

Right here in the center is this beautiful spacious dining area and it looks right out onto the back patio.

It's just so inviting and so family oriented.

Right over here you're going to see this amazing detailing that really optimizes all of the space in this home.

This is a wine fridge,

maybe a coffee area, plenty of storage,

and you start to see one of my favorite features of this home,

which is the usage of beautiful light.

You have built-in LED lighting that's just so warm and so elevated.

And welcome to the official heart of this home.

This chef-inspired kitchen is absolutely stunning and has so, so much personality.

You'll immediately notice that you blend a common kind of color palette with a lot of textures.

It's a really brilliant design approach to where it feels still very calm and cohesive,

but still has so much interest,

you're never going to get sick of looking at this kitchen.

This oversized kitchen island really maximizes the grandness of this space,

and no inch is lost.

Even down here, you'll see this optimized little shelf area,

and of course storage underneath the bar stools as well.

And just so much storage throughout the kitchen, so it's totally functional.

You can store everything you could possibly imagine while keeping a clean, seamless look.

The kitchen features decked-in countertops by Cosentino that feel like this beautiful velvety finish on your hands.

You'll notice over here you have this beautiful oak throughout and this is panel ready built-in thermador appliances.

Huge fridge.

Again, if you were hosting,

having people over for dinner,

you have plenty of space for platters,

drawer space, just absolutely beautiful quality.

And right beside it, check out the storage.

What an absolutely brilliant use of the space.

100

You don't feel like there's this huge pantry here,

101

but you pull on this handle and all of a sudden you have so, so much space.

102

Moving around here, you're going to see all this floating shelving.

103

It has that built-in LED lighting.

104

So just anything you decide to put up there,

105

whether it was spices or glassware,

106

it's just going to feel luxurious looking at your everyday uses.

107

This is our Thermador drawer microwave.

108

So just high-tech and kind of elevated feeling.

109

You can just open it right up.

110

It's a nice height for the entire family to use and also tucked away to just look so clean.

111

And when you're ready to cook up your meal.

112

You have a 48 inch six burner plus a flat stovetop here.

113

Absolutely chef quality.

114

You also have a pot filler here and this beautiful hood range is one of my very favorite parts of this kitchen.

115

This is a Zephyr Monsoon 46 inch hood insert.

116

It just seamlessly flows up with

117

that hand applied plaster all the way to the ceiling

118

and really brings your eye in a very relaxed way to this gorgeous asymmetrical ceiling above.

119

And you'll notice where the garbage can is.

120

Oh wait, you won't notice because it's also built in.

121

Everything is so intentional to look so clean and just relaxed, tucked away.

122

You have the trash here.

123

Of course, you have your dishwasher also built in.

124

And notice soft close on all of these drawers,

125

just maximizing that relaxed, elevated living feel.

126

And just check out this vantage point.

127

Imagine that you were making breakfast or just serving up something for your family for dinner,

128

and you can look out onto this absolutely gorgeous.

129

Again, so drenched with sunlight home.

130

Open concept at its finest.

131

One of my very favorite features of this entire home is this open bar area right off of the kitchen.

132

Imagine you were serving up maybe some drinks

133

or some appetizers for a party in this beautiful backyard and you can just stand here in your kitchen,

134

socialize, be a part of everything,

135

and just feel that breeze coming right into your kitchen.

136

It's absolutely gorgeous.

137

And come on, this view out of the bar area is like a stunning picture frame of this backyard.

138

A cool feature that we have here on the island is another example of all of this built-in clean kind of appliances.

139

So I just tap right here and up comes my outlet for any cooking

140

or electricals that I need to do on this countertop.

141

When I'm finished with it,

142

just tap it and away it goes.

143

And speaking of spilling out onto the beautiful backyard,

144

I can't wait to show it to you in just a minute.

145

But first, let's come down the hallway.

146

All of the windows throughout this home are so thoughtfully curated to be like a stunning fine art picture frame.

147

You'll notice this really intentional use of floor-to-ceiling glass panels that really just spills all that light into the hallway,

148

so rather than feeling like you're walking down kind of a dark area of the home,

149

you have all of these windows to the side and it just floods you with light.

150

Tucked away but just as aesthetically pleasing is our laundry room.

151

So connected to the design of the home,

152

you even have those decked-in countertops and backsplash in here.

153

There are so many little details and moments of serenity throughout the home that just optimize the space brilliantly.

154

This home was designed to be effortlessly natural and high-tech smart.

155

Full smart home features integrated with the Control 4 automation system give effortless control of entertainment,

156

lighting, and security.

157

Welcome to bedroom number two.

158

This one is a little bit cozier being tucked back here into the heart of the home,

159

but plenty, plenty of space.

160

I love the striped wallpaper.

161

So much texture and intentionality with all of the design choices here.

162

You have plenty of space for a queen, even a king-size bed.

163

Over here, plenty of closet space,

164

and then wrapping around all the way to this bathroom.

165

This bathroom does not shy away from the design of the home.

166

You can see all this gorgeous lighting.

167

It just feels so warm.

168

I would love personally to get ready in this bathroom.

169

You can see the gorgeous use of those neutral tones,

170

but a little bit different choice in the stone.

171

Again, bringing so much personality and variety to the experience of this home.

172

This bathroom also has a tub,

173

so if you have kids or you just want to be able to relax at the end of the day,

174

you have both the bath and the shower option in this bathroom.

175

Coming back out to the hallway,

176

I just have to call out the beams and the beautiful symmetry of this hallway.

177

You have that light cascading on from the side,

178

and just walking through here just feels gorgeous.

179

And finally, welcome to the primary suite.

180

I'm telling you, I would spend so much of my time here.

181

It looks out onto the pool.

182

We're going to get to that in just a moment,

183

but check out these ceilings, these beautiful elevated ceilings.

184

Your eye is drawn up to this beautiful oak beam at the very top,

185

and I love this wallpaper choice.

186

Lara Brophy really, really specializes in all those textures.

187

This is a beautiful washed linen that wraps the entire primary suite.

188

You also have plenty of space over here for a little sitting area,

189

again, that looks over the beautiful pool and the outdoors.

190

You could relax with a cup of coffee or read your book at the end of the night,

191

but come with me to the closet.

192

This closet has one of the most stunning amounts of natural light that I've ever seen in a closet.

193

It's this beautiful, long, very, very spacious closet.

194

You can fully spread out two sides.

195

So if you had maybe two of you that wanted your own closet space,

196

as well as this beautiful sitting area,

197

you could easily put a little standing mirror here and have

198

that natural light to do your makeup in the morning just really, really well done.

199

Coming to the primary bathroom.

200

So the first design element that I have to point out in here is this custom curved Taj Mahal vanity.

201

So seamlessly done.

202

It just feels smooth to the touch

203

and beautiful rounded LED mirrors just lift your eye up

204

and just help you feel like you're going to start the day with all the magic that this home has to offer.

205

Over here to the primary shower,

206

you have two shower heads,

207

the traditional shower head as well as the rainfall shower head,

208

built-in seating, built-in shelf, and over here as well you have the detachable.

209

The Zalige tile has that beautiful similar kind of neutral tones,

210

but it gives that classic timeless look that only Zalige can give you.

211

But if you're in the mood for a bath,

212

you have a beautiful soaking tub right here ready to go overlooking this outdoor window

213

so you can have that light spilling over you.

214

And when you're finished, then you have a towel warmer off to the side here just for

215

that ultimate comfort wherever you go.

216

and now for the piece de existence of this primary suite welcome to this stunning backyard

217

along here you have a beautiful lap pool you could come

218

and soak enjoy with your friends

219

and I'll also point out this Bougainville on the back here these

220

and all of the hedging around this backyard are going to mature beautifully to give you

221

so much privacy while still giving you tons of access to the California blue skies.

222

This landscaping is going to be stunning.

223

In just a few years,

224

imagine a beautiful wall of bougainvillea behind me just bursting with color.

225

Alongside the pool, you also have a little soaking hot tub over here

226

and plenty of space for your lounging next to this beautiful heritage olive tree.

227

This just gives this home so much history.

228

It feels like you're being swept up into another world.

229

Another place where I would spend probably too much time is around this fire pit.

230

It feels so old world,

231

this volcanic rock built in,

232

so much texture and personality.

233

I also really love how they used the black lava rock

234

to really enhance all of the other little black accents throughout the home.

235

And remember that bar we talked about just off of the kitchen?

236

This is where you would come and take a seat.

237

You can easily foot several bar stools up here,

238

chat with the host of the kitchen,

239

even if you're just serving lunch to your kids.

240

This is such a fun place to sit and just enjoy the backyard and the home at the same time.

241

With the immaculate design of this home,

242

it's hard to imagine that anything could make it better,

243

but like I said at the beginning, location, location, location.

244

So once you have relaxed and soaked up all of the beauty of this living space,

245

it's time to get dressed and go enjoy the best of Newport Beach.

246

This neighborhood is known for its wide,

247

quiet streets, mature landscaping, and of course,

248

proximity to Newport Beach Country Club,

249

Fashion Island, Corona Del Mar Village,

250

and the gorgeous, sparkling Pacific Ocean.

251

This area just embodies the best of Orange County coastal life.

252

Well, we just had an absolutely exquisite afternoon enjoying Fashion Island with everything from luxury to everyday shops,

253

as well as the one of a kind Balboa Island.

254

Thanks Luxury Home Show, and thank you for watching all the way to the end.

255

We hope you enjoyed this tour,

256

and if you enjoyed this episode,

257

you're definitely going to love the next one.

258

But before you click, please enjoy this Pacific Coast sunset that.

259

Hey, Luxury Home Show.

260

I'm your host, Ariana, and today we're exploring a beautiful brand new architectural build right here in the prestigious Pacific Palisades Riviera.

261

This is a house you have to see to believe.

262

Let's start outside.
