Coast District
Neighborhood in San Clemente, California
Orange County 92673
Recreation, including Shorecliffs Golf Club and Poche Beach
On the west side of the Coast District, Shorecliffs Golf Club has a public 18-hole course with ocean views and a clubhouse renovated in 2024. San Gorgonio Park, just south of the community, offers a playground, ballfields and more sports facilities. “They do a lot of soccer practice there, and it has basketball courts. There are beautiful views from that park,” Redivo says. About a mile south, Poche Beach is a more secluded option to enjoy the ocean, more accessible by biking or walking, since it doesn’t have a public parking lot. On this sandy stretch, Shorecliffs Beach Club is a private club, with amenities like pickleball courts, tennis courts and members-only events.

1980s Craftsman homes and manufactured homes in the Coast District
Located on the west side of San Clemente, the Coast District is composed of winding subdivisions with cul-de-sacs. The northern part of the neighborhood has many manufactured homes, with compact lots often styled with gravel garden beds and succulents. The southern side offers single-family homes, many built in the 1980s, with Craftsman, Mediterranean and Victorian styles. They tend to have driveways, attached garages and yards with more room for landscaping, from sculpted boxwood shrubs to towering palm trees. “In the Coast District, there are homes with three-car garages and homes with carports, plenty variety for everybody. There’s even a 55-plus neighborhood,” Redivo says. The Shorecliffs Terrace 55-plus community has an HOA with fees around $300 for maintaining the communal recreation center and pool. Manufactured homes range from $550,000 to $1 million, while single-family homes range from $1.8 million to $5 million, the higher end often featuring panoramic ocean views and in-ground pools. The market can be competitive: “With homes that are priced correctly, we’re still seeing multiple offers,” Redivo says.
