Welcome to Santa Lucia
Santa Lucia real estate is a small community consisting of only about a hundred homes located in the highly desirable neighborhood of
Newport Beach. Property in Santa Lucia is highly sought after for its large, luxurious homes featuring one of a kind oceanfront views and direct access to Buck Gully Reserve immediately to the west.

Santa Lucia real estate is located just west of Buck Gully Reserve in southern Orange County in an exclusive gated community complete with 24 hour security.
Just north of Santa Lucia up Newport Coast Drive is the Newport Coast Shopping Center, where locals can get groceries from the Pavilions, work up a sweat at the fitness center, or try one of the various local restaurants, including:
Santa Lucia residents are always close to world class views, with access to Crystal Cove State Park less than 10 minutes to the east.
The largest park in Newport Coast, Crystal Cove State Park covers over 2,400 acres of gorgeous Southern California wilderness, great for camping, or hiking and jogging.
The park sweeps down the coast and includes over three miles of beach area overlooking the serene, turquoise Pacific Ocean. These ocean views can be seen from the properties in Santa Lucia as well, in priceless landscapes that also include mountain and city scenery.
Santa Lucia Real Estate
Many of the homes in this exclusive area were built in the mid to late nineties, but have since been upgraded with modern appliances.
These luxurious, two story homes are perfect for families, with multiple bedrooms and bathrooms including large primary bedrooms with sizable walk-in closets and private full bathrooms.
Santa Lucia homes are large, usually sitting between 1,500 and 2,500 square feet, with beautifully landscaped front yards and Italian and Tuscany style structures typical of the area, with rustic stucco walls and terracotta roofs.
Pools and hot tubs are very common features of the backyards in the neighborhood of Santa Lucia, so residents will never miss a priceless California sunset while relaxing in these deluxe water features.
Despite being surrounded by many other popular and opulent neighborhoods, the Santa Lucia neighborhood has a unique triangular shape that juts into the Buck Gully Reserve, so many of the backyards don’t have neighbors across from them — perfect for an intimate setting to enjoy the romantic scenery of the Newport Coast landscape.
Homeowners fees are required to support the upkeep of the exclusive Santa Lucia neighborhood, but this includes a 24 hour security guarded gate, and access to the Newport Coast Community Association, which affords residents the use of a heated swimming pool, tennis courts and basketball courts, as well as an indoor spa.
