Welcome To Port Streets
Family-Friendly Neighborhood in the Heart of Newport Beach.
Harbor View Homes, also known locally as the “Port Streets,” is one of the most desired kid and family-friendly communities in Newport Beach for many reasons, including its own Blue Ribbon award-winning elementary school located right in the center. The neighborhood surrounds a beautiful and lush greenbelt, made up of ball parks and fields, nature trails, playgrounds, clubhouses, and two pools hosting community swim teams. The Port Streets were originally built in the late 1960’s and have kept much of the charm that initially attracted so many families to raise their families in this unique community, although many of the original homes have been replaced with larger custom homes ranging from the more traditional Cape Cod to today’s Modern Farmhouse, providing for a variety of price points and unique styles. Conveniently, the Port Streets are centrally located right off the 73 highway for ease of commuting, near Fashion Island, and only minutes from Orange County’s most beautiful beaches.
