Overview
What You Should Know About Newport Coast
Newport Coast is home to some of the most recognized luxury enclaves in Southern California — Pelican Hill, Pelican Crest, and Crystal Cove. Properties here consistently attract global interest due to panoramic ocean views, proximity to Fashion Island, and access to five-star amenities. If you're exploring the upper end of the Orange County market, this is where the data points first.
Why This Matters for Buyers
Here's what the numbers show: Newport Coast has historically been one of Orange County's most stable luxury sectors. Even during market corrections, homes in Pelican Hill often retain or increase value thanks to limited supply and international demand. Average days on market run 90–120 for listings above $10M, which suggests stronger liquidity than many U.S. ultra-luxury markets.
Market Resilience
Very Strong — limited inventory, global demand, and consistent appreciation make this one of the most defensible luxury positions in the county.
Very StrongInvestment Insight
Demand remains strongest for newer, modernized properties with transitional or contemporary designs. If you're considering this market, worth noting that well-maintained estates with ocean views have the shortest time on market.
