There are incredible gated communities throughout Newport Beach. But One Ford Road stands in a category all its own. Built with intention, designed with character, and maintained with pride, it has become the neighborhood that luxury buyers consistently target — often long before they are ready to make a move.
So what makes One Ford Road so special? It starts with location. Perfectly situated near Fashion Island, Balboa Island, top private schools, and Newport Beach Country Club, the community sits in the center of everything — yet feels private, quiet, and secure. This is prime Newport Beach living without ever feeling congested.
Timeless Architecture. Not Trend-Driven Design.
Communities are either built for the moment or built to last — One Ford Road is firmly the latter. Inspired by traditional East Coast and Cape Cod styling, the homes have a charm and elegance that don’t go out of fashion.
Layouts are functional. Ceilings are tall. Natural light is a design priority. These homes live as beautifully as they show. And over time, residents have elevated them further with high-end renovations and curated upgrades.
A Lifestyle That’s Hard to Walk Away From
This is where One Ford Road truly separates from the pack. Resort-style amenities include guard-gated security, multiple pools, state-of-the-art fitness center, putting green, basketball courts, rose garden, and beautifully manicured greenbelts. Social clubs, family events, and neighbor-driven programming create a true community — the kind people don’t want to leave.
And that’s why inventory stays tight. When owners move, they often look for another home within the same gates. That level of loyalty says everything about livability.
Demand That Outpaces Supply
Homes here consistently outperform neighboring markets for a reason: scarcity plus desirability equals resilience. Even in volatile years, One Ford Road values hold strong, with days on market well below the Newport Beach average.
For sellers, this means properly positioned listings can trigger bidding wars. For buyers — you have to be ready, or the home you wanted disappears.
Final Thought
One Ford Road isn’t just a place to live. It’s a place to love living. And that’s why it continues to define what luxury community living means in Newport Beach.
