A Little Reality TV Meets Real Real Estate
Any Real Housewives of Orange County fans out there? I’ll admit it—yes, I watch it! Recently, while catching an episode, I immediately recognized the setting. The cast walked down a long, sun-drenched dock to board a sleek yacht, and I couldn’t help but smile because I knew exactly where that was filmed.
Lucky me, I know that stretch of the harbor intimately. That picturesque dock? It’s not just a stunning backdrop for Bravo’s cameras—it’s the longest private dock in the Northwest and one of the most exclusive waterfront spots in Coastal Orange County.
Welcome to another edition of Annie’s Duffy Diaries, where I blend a little pop culture with my passion for real estate. Let’s dive into what makes this iconic dock—and the surrounding area—such a dream for luxury coastal living.
The Longest Private Dock in the Northwest
When you live and breathe Orange County real estate like I do, you start to see every scenic shot differently. That dock featured on Real Housewives of Orange County isn’t just a filming location—it’s a landmark of Newport Beach luxury.
Stretching elegantly along the harbor, this private dock is a showpiece of coastal architecture and an embodiment of the OC lifestyle: boats bobbing in the calm water, the scent of salt air, and the golden glow of the sunset reflecting off million-dollar homes.
This is the kind of setting that makes Coastal Orange County real estate so special—where sophistication meets natural beauty, and every view feels like it’s pulled from a postcard.
Why Local Expertise Matters in Coastal Orange County Real Estate
When it comes to buying or selling luxury properties in Newport Beach, Balboa Island, Corona del Mar, or along the coastal enclaves of Orange County, there’s no substitute for true local expertise.
As someone who’s not just studied these neighborhoods but lived and breathed them, I offer my clients insider knowledge that goes far beyond the MLS listing. From understanding tide impacts on waterfront homes to recognizing which streets are zoned for short-term rentals, my approach is detail-driven, informed, and deeply personal.
In Coastal Orange County, every home has a story—and every buyer or seller deserves a realtor who can tell it beautifully.
Behind the Scenes: Reality TV Meets Real Life
You might see this same dock appear again soon on a different “reality” TV series that, ironically, has nothing to do with real estate. 🫣
But for me, these moments highlight something bigger: the reason why so many production crews—and even more homebuyers—fall in love with Coastal Orange County. The light, the architecture, the effortless blend of luxury and laid-back energy—it’s the definition of California dream living.
And that’s exactly what I help my clients find every day.
