What $2M Buys You in Orange County’s Coastal Communities

Brett & Dane Smith May 7, 2025

Wondering what a $2 million budget gets you in Orange County? Here's a look at what you can expect across South OC's top coastal enclaves:

Laguna Niguel
For around $2M, you’ll find spacious 4–5 bedroom homes in gated communities like Bear Brand Ridge or Marina Hills. These often include private yards, ocean breezes, and proximity to trails and shops.

San Clemente
Think Spanish-style charm, ocean views, and walkable beach access. You might even score a remodeled single-level home with a yard or a new-build townhome with modern finishes.

Dana Point
$2M can get you a detached home in Lantern Village or a luxury condo steps from the harbor. Expect elevated views, walkability, and vibrant coastal living.

Laguna Beach
Options here are tighter — expect smaller cottages, townhomes, or fixers in prime locations. But the payoff is access to world-class beaches and artistic culture.

Pro Tip: Each neighborhood has its own personality. If you're looking to maximize your budget in South OC, a local realtor can help you find hidden gems before they hit the market.
