Corona del Mar Homes for Sale & Real Estate

Corona del Mar is the part of Newport Beach many buyers picture first: a walkable village on Coast Highway, ocean bluffs, protected coves and tide pools, all within a few minutes of Newport Center and Fashion Island. It is also one of the most varied markets in the city. A 30-foot lot in the Flower Streets, a bluff-top home in Shore Cliffs and a view home on Spyglass Hill each draw different buyers and are priced in completely different ways. The Gomez | Align Group at Douglas Elliman helps buyers and sellers across all of Corona del Mar from our office at 12 Corporate Plaza in Newport Center.

Corona del Mar Market Snapshot (Fall 2026)

Corona del Mar prices vary more by location and view than almost anywhere in Orange County, so a single citywide number can mislead. Here is how the market looks right now:

• Typical single-family home: roughly $4.1 to $4.3 million, based on sales over the past 12 months.
• South of Coast Highway vs. north: recorded closings south of PCH, closest to the beaches, have run about $4.9 million at the median, compared with about $3.4 million north of PCH.
• Price per square foot: generally $1,800 to $2,000, and much higher for ocean-front and bluff-top homes.
• Entry point: condos and townhomes in the Village typically start around $1.6 million.
• Top of the market: bluff-top and ocean-view estates regularly sell for $10 million to $25 million or more. A Cameo Highlands home on Surrey Drive set that area's record at $24.5 million.
• Pace: about 230 homes sold in the past year. Well-priced homes in the Village and on the bluffs still move quickly, while view homes in the hills often take two to three months.

Corona del Mar Neighborhoods We Serve

The Village & Flower Streets

South of Coast Highway, the Flower Streets run toward the ocean in alphabetical order, from Acacia and Begonia to Poppy. This is the classic Corona del Mar beach-village area: original cottages, remodeled homes and new construction on narrow lots, many within walking distance of Big Corona, Little Corona and the shops and restaurants along Coast Highway. Homes closest to Ocean Boulevard and those with ocean views carry the biggest premiums, and rebuild potential often drives value as much as the existing house.

Ocean Boulevard & the Bluffs

Along Ocean Boulevard, homes sit above Corona del Mar State Beach, Inspiration Point and Little Corona, with some of the most direct ocean and harbor-entrance views in Orange County. These properties come up for sale rarely and are priced home by home, based on view, lot and condition.

Shore Cliffs, Cameo Shores & Cameo Highlands

East of the village, these are gated and private communities along the coast. Shore Cliffs and Cameo Shores include bluff-top homes with ocean frontage, while Cameo Highlands sits a little inland with view lots of its own.

Irvine Terrace

Between Coast Highway and the harbor, Irvine Terrace offers mid-century and rebuilt homes, many with harbor, bay or city-light views, plus a short drive to Fashion Island.

Harbor View Hills, Spyglass Hill & Corona Highlands

North of Coast Highway, the hillside neighborhoods offer larger homes, quieter streets and sweeping ocean, Catalina and city-light views. Spyglass Hill and Harbor View Hills are popular with families who want space, views and access to local schools.

Corona del Mar Insider Tips for Buyers and Sellers

• North or south of PCH changes everything. South of Coast Highway you can walk to the sand and pay for it. North of PCH, streets are quieter, lots are often bigger and prices are lower for similar square footage.
• Watch for "½" addresses. Many Flower Street lots hold two homes, and the second is listed with a ½ address (for example, 600½). These are often condos or two-unit properties, so ask how ownership, parking and any shared costs are split.
• Ask about private beach access. Shore Cliffs residents have their own private beach, and Cameo Shores and Cameo Highlands homeowners can use the Cameo Shores beach gates. Some nearby homes share these rights too. Confirm it in the HOA documents before you count on it.
• The 300 block is a market of its own. Flower Street homes on the 300 block, closest to Ocean Boulevard, usually carry the highest premiums in the Village.
• Older view homes are often rebuild opportunities. In Harbor View Hills, Spyglass Hill and Cameo Highlands, many 1960s and 1970s homes sit on prime view lots. Check the HOA's view and height rules before planning a rebuild.
• Buying to rent short-term? Newport Beach caps short-term rental permits, so check whether a home already has one and how it transfers to a new owner before you write an offer.

Living in Corona del Mar
