More than the golf course and resort, Pelican Hill homes are located on a series of exclusive drives at the end of South Pelican Hill Road. Pelican Hill homes began development in the early 1990s and are now comprised of exclusive, palatial estates which are located behind the private, guarded Pelican Hill community gate. With 140 custom-built estates, Pelican Hill’s homeowner’s association offers amenities including 24 hour security and guard-gated privacy, with fees of approximately $819 a month. Many of Pelican Hill’s homes and lots overlook the world-famous Pelican Hill golf course and resort.
Every Pelican Hill home is a custom-built estate, and a few unbuilt lots are still available. A select few smaller Pelican Hill estate homes sell in the $5 million range and are referred to as “cottages.” The majority of Pelican Hill estate homes average 8,000 square feet and above, and range between $10 million and $20 million, depending upon view (golf course, ocean, or coastline), construction, amenities, and property location. Virtually every Pelican Hill estate home has its own pool, spa, and entertainer’s patio, extensive yard, and landscaped grounds. You will find exquisite architectural details and artwork throughout Pelican Hill’s exclusive estate properties. Staff quarters and media rooms are also present in the majority of properties.
The estates at Pelican Hill offer golf course, ocean, or coastline views. They overlook the beautiful Crystal Cove State Park. Pelican Hill is beside not one, but three world-class golf courses. Living at Pelican Hill you are within minutes of Newport Coast’s world-class shopping and dining. If more down-to-earth artsy nightlife and eclectic boutiques are your style, you are also within minutes of Laguna Beach’s art galleries, exclusive shops, and organic/natural dining.
A number of celebrities and noted entrepreneurs have called Pelican Hill home over the years, including Hot Pocket inventor and UC Irvine School of Business benefactor Paul Merage, who owns the largest estate in the planned community at 30,000 square feet, with a pool house, guest house, tennis court and massive swimming pool. If your budget and taste will support Pelican Hill’s larger than life style, you should investigate its exclusive streets and mansions to see if they meet your standards for the ultimate beachside lifestyle on California’s golden Riviera.
