Cliff Haven in Newport Beach is a diverse neighborhood with a variety of home styles, including 1950s fixer-uppers, modern builds, classic Spanish villas, ranch-style homes, and Cape Cod architecture. Despite the architectural variety, homes in Cliff Haven share large lots and high price tags, ranging from $3.2 million to over $8 million. With approximately 270 homes and many longtime residents, properties rarely come on the market. The neighborhood is a short walk from Newport Bay, featuring marinas and yacht clubs. Nearby parks include Castaways Park, known for its sunset views and the Back Bay Loop, and John Wayne Park.
