Orange County Real Estate in Newport Beach
 Homes for sale in Newport Beach are breath-taking.Real estate is draped elegantly along bluffs and ocean shores of a natural harbor while spacious neighborhoods are nestled amidst gentle, rolling hills.In fact, it is due to these beautiful vistas that Newport Beach homes have become emblematic of modish communities in Orange County.
Two key elements define the coastal city´s neighborhoods: "style" and "space." In regards to style, the quintessential image of Newport Beach real estate is either of a modern beach bungalow with large windows and patios or of a Spanish villa with a red-tiled roof on a precipice overlooking Upper Newport Bay. However, upper-middle class and luxury homes of one or two-stories in non-gated communities are actually more prevalent in this suburbia. There are also a few planned community options, like luxury homes and apartments, available.
In regards to space, Newport Beach´s different elevations, curving hills, substantial harbor and abundant vegetation give this Orange County community in Southern California a strong sense of breathing room and freedom. The city is also cut in half by the intrusion of its natural harbor, which offers Newport Beach´s definitive panoramic view, while real estate to the south is flanked by the untouched terrain of Crystal Cove State Park.
 Outside of the "for sale" market in Newport Beach, the city has many pleasures that connect back to its ocean roots. Newport Harbor is filled with fishing and tour boats, while famous coastal and picturesque areas like Corona del Mar and Balboa Island have many fashionable boutiques and restaurants for patrons of all calibers.
However, Fashion Island is perhaps the most well-known attraction in Newport Beach; it is a beautiful outdoor shopping experience that gives shoppers the illusion of being nearer to the sea than they actually are.Also surrounding the island of fashion is a mesh of commercial and corporate real estate as well as the Orange County Museum of Art.
Popular culture (The O.C. and Arrested Development) has fortunately succeeded in making Newport Beach a recognizable location around the world, but it is the marvelous scenery, shopping destinations and tranquil neighborhoods that make this city one of the most attractive residences among Southern California communities in Orange County.
