Downtown Huntington Beach is an exciting place to be in Orange County. It surrounds Main Street near the pier and includes restaurants, bars, boutiques and unique shops. Whether you’re stopping in for breakfast at Sugar Shack, a rainbow drink at Aloha Grill, or coming for the farmer’s market on Tuesdays, there’s fun around every corner. Houses for sale in Downtown reflect the small streets with compact lots and tall homes. Rooftop patios are common for enjoying the amazing weather year round and prices range from the high $600,000 for condos to well over $3 million for single family residences. The community has a great WalkScore and is a very bikeable neighborhood as well.
Seacliff is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the area. The mostly gated neighborhoods are filled with million dollar homes ranging from condos at just over $1 million to homes located on the golf course at over $3 million. Situated just blocks from the beach, families gravitate toward these homes because of the highly rated public schools including Seacliff Elementary, Dwyer Middle School, and Huntington Beach High School. The Huntington Club and golf course (formerly Seacliff Country Club) is also a draw for home buyers searching in the community. Homes for sale within Seacliff often feature entertainer’s backyards with pools, outdoor living spaces and more. The location allows you to be close to downtown, but have a large home and significantly larger lot.
Meredith Gardens is a community of approximately 400 homes established in 1966. The community was designed and built by the developer Eddie Meredith who at the time was considered a trendsetter. He broke away from building the traditional California ranch style home to build the first split-level homes in Southern California. The unique design of the homes coupled with wide streets, larger lots with spacious front lawns and back yards makes Meredith Gardens one of the most sought after neighborhoods in HB. Adjacent to the Santa Ana River, the community enjoys unique access to bike trails, open spaces, and outdoor recreational activities.The voluntary Homeowners Association is dedicated to promoting a sense of community and tradition. There is always something going on in Meredith Gardens including the Summerfest block party, the annual progressive dinner, and the bocce ball tournament and chili cookoff.
