When I have out of town buyers here and am showing them around South Orange County in my comfy Mercedes, I always drive up onto the Dana Point Headlands by the Chart House and let them look down from the 150 foot cliffs to the picturesque Dana Point Harbor sprawling into the distance below us.

Dana Point has some of the most beautiful real estate locations in Orange County and homes to die for. The homes on Beach Road, right on the beach, in front of PCH in Capistrano Beach feature some properties of more than ten million dollars. One empty lot in Dana Point, at Harbor Drive and PCH, across from Denny’s, sells for $20 million.

Dana Point is sort of like the jewel of South Orange County and one of the greatest depositories of prime Orange County real estate.  Dana Point real estate is expensive, yes, but far cheaper than Laguna Niguel or Laguna Beach real estate.

As of today, April 16, 2007 there were 358 Dana Point homes for sale on the MLS at a median price of $1,025,000. There were only 32 foreclosures, though, and the median price of these was $593,293. I guess this means that buying a more expensive home may be a better way to go, just so long as you REALLY can afford one!
