Privately positioned above Newport Harbor, 702 Saint James Place is a rare hillside residence that combines architectural presence, privacy, and sweeping coastal views in one of Newport Beach’s most coveted enclaves. Elevated yet effortless, the home is designed for those who value scale, light, and refined indoor outdoor living.
The residence offers five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, with bedrooms thoughtfully placed on every level, providing flexibility, privacy, and livability for families and guests alike. Expansive living spaces open seamlessly to decks and view facing entertaining areas, capturing sunsets, ocean breezes, and harbor lights below.
Designed for both daily comfort and hosting at scale, the home features a resort style pool and spa, a private gym, elevator, a wine room, and a generous entertaining bonus room with a full bar. Interiors balance warmth and sophistication with generous proportions, clean lines, and an atmosphere that feels polished yet inviting.
The property offers a true sense of retreat while remaining moments from world class dining, beaches, boating, and shopping. This is not a compromise between view, privacy, and amenities. It is a residence that delivers all three.
