Living in Laguna Niguel is very special.  After living here most of my life, I still tell myself how lucky I am! Strategically located to all the main freeways and toll roads but yet quiet suburb living.  We are half way between Los Angeles and San Diego which makes business easy.  We are fortunate to be surrounded by Laguna Beach, San Juan Capistrano, Mission Viejo, Laguna Hills, San Clemente and Aliso Viejo!  Each one of these cities is literally within 5-10 minutes of driving!  You can also jump on the toll road and be down up in the Newport Beach area in 20 minutes or jump on the freeway and be in Carlsbad in 30 minutes it is one of the most beautiful places to live!  Most of the streets either have ocean views or rolling hills.  There is still a lot of open space left so you never feel crowded, not even in rush hour!  It is very quaint and you can go to your neighborhood Starbucks or grocery store and see people you know just like in a small town, but yet we have everything that a large city has also!

     If you have children the homes in Laguna Niguel are spacious with nice back yards. The parks and schools are very nice also.  Laguna Niguel offers all blue ribbon schools.  They are the best!  From elementary to college we have it all.  We also have so many things for kids to do!  There is the Ocean Institute at the Dana Point Harbor with many kids programs. There are classes and many water and boating activities!  We have at least four community centers with great programs and so many things for kids to do!  There are parades for every holiday, Easter egg hunts, Christmas parades and the annual Thanksgiving Turkey Trot at the Harbor! Living in Laguna Niguel you know your family will be safe. Laguna Niguel is a safe family community with a very low crime rate. You will not see any bars on the windows here.

     Restaurants and shopping are the best around!  Laguna Niguel is surrounded by the best of the best restaurants! There are so many to choose from that you will have trouble trying each one!  There will be your neighborhood favorites or course and then there are so many especially along Pacific Coast Highway that you cannot possibly try them all!  For that special night out or entertaining out of town guests there are always the big luxury hotels!  We are within minutes of the St Regis, Ritz Carlton and the Montage, all five star hotels.  We are also within 20 minutes to 4 major malls including Fashion Island and another 10 minutes to South Coast Plaza, along with numerous stores in between!    You just can’t run out of things to do here!  So many times too will want to just jump in the car and take a drive just to soak up the day! 

     Beaches around here are the best and probably one of the biggest reasons people chooses this area to buy a home.  Not only can you enjoy the cool ocean breezes but also the recreation that beaches provide and some of the best surfing around!  There are too many beaches to mention all within a short drive. .  If you are a trail blazer and enjoy biking or hiking you could try one of the many  bike trails which take you through maintained trails starting from most of the neighborhoods and ending up down at the beaches!    If golfing is your thing you are also within minutes of some of the best courses around! All and all I can’t think of a better place I would like to live!  We have it all!
