1 Ocean Bluff: A Newly Remodeled Estate Changes Hands in Crystal Cove

At the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in guard-gated Crystal Cove, a Newport Coast residence closes at $15,795,000.

There is a particular quiet that settles at the end of a cul-de-sac in Crystal Cove. The movement of Pacific Coast Highway falls away, the marine air drifts up from the water, and the day takes on the pace of the coast rather than the calendar. It is the setting that defines 1 Ocean Bluff, a newly remodeled Newport Coast estate that has recently sold for $15,795,000.

For buyers at this level, the decision is rarely about square footage alone.…

183 Monarch Bay Drive: A Single-Level Estate on One of the Enclave’s Largest Lots

There are roughly 230 homes behind the gates of Monarch Bay. Only a handful sit on a full third of an acre, and fewer still do it on a single level, at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac, with the hills of Three Arch Bay filling the western horizon. 183 Monarch Bay Drive is one of them.

Offered at $11,995,000, the estate spans 4,800 square feet of living space across one floor, with four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a detached casita, and grounds that read more like a private compound than a suburban lot. The 0.35-acre parcel is among the largest in…

Represented by The Aaronson Group: One of the Few Places in Laguna Beach You Can Actually Live on the Sand

Modern Laguna Laguna Beach Real Estate & Coastal Living

Laguna Sands

One of the Few Places in Laguna Beach You Can Actually Live on the Sand

Drive South Coast Highway between the Village and Aliso Beach and you pass a long stretch of buildings that face the water. Very few of them sit on it. The bluff does most of the work along this coast, which is why so much of Laguna’s oceanfront housing looks down at the beach from thirty or forty feet up rather than opening onto it.

Laguna Sands is one of the exceptions. The gated community sits directly on the sand next to the Surf & Sand Resort, and residents reach the beach without crossing a road or hunting for a public stairway. That single fact explains most of what makes the…

Five Days on the Market. Then In Escrow.

909 N. Cleveland Street in Orange is officially in escrow, with an accepted offer just five days after coming to market. The result did not happen by accident. It happened because the right strategy met the right presentation at the right price.

There is a second part to this story worth telling: the seller came to The Aaronson Group after watching how quickly we sold another home nearby.
