Inside 16 Via Perazul: Touring an Ocean Heights Estate with Ryan Serhant
I recently had the opportunity to walk through 16 Via Perazul in Newport Coast with Ryan Serhant, taking a closer look at what makes this property and its location within Ocean Heights so special.
As a real estate agent and longtime Newport Beach resident, I see beautiful homes throughout coastal Orange County every day. What immediately stands out about 16 Via Perazul is not simply the home itself. It is the combination of the lot, privacy, views, outdoor space, and the opportunity the property presents within one of Newport Coast’s most coveted guard-gated communities.
A Premier Location in Ocean Heights
Ocean Heights is a prestigious 24-hour guard-gated community positioned high above the Newport Coast coastline. The neighborhood is known for its privacy, security, substantial residences, and sweeping views that can encompass the Pacific Ocean, Catalina Island, Newport Harbor, Palos Verdes, and miles of the Southern California coastline.
Within this already exclusive setting, 16 Via Perazul occupies an especially desirable position.
The property sits on an expansive 11,543-square-foot lot, one of the features Ryan and I discussed as we walked through the home and grounds. With no neighboring residences on two sides and substantial separation from the home on the remaining side, the property has a sense of space and privacy that can be difficult to replicate in Newport Coast.
A Backyard That Feels Like a Private Park
One of my favorite aspects of 16 Via Perazul is the way the outdoor space has been designed.
Rather than having the swimming pool consume the entire backyard, the pool and spa are positioned within their own dedicated area. That leaves a substantial lawn, mature landscaping, and multiple areas for entertaining and relaxing.
The result feels less like a typical residential backyard and more like a private park.
Just off the kitchen, a covered loggia creates a natural extension of the home and an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Additional seating areas are positioned throughout the property, allowing you to experience the views, landscaping, and privacy from different vantage points.
In Newport Coast, where the view often gets most of the attention, having this combination of a significant usable yard and panoramic coastal views is particularly compelling.
Four Bedrooms Plus a Detached Casita
The residence features four generously proportioned bedrooms and four-and-one-half bathrooms.
A detached casita adds another valuable element to the property. Depending on the needs of the next owner, it could function beautifully as a private home office, guest retreat, gym, studio, or other flexible living space.
It is another example of what I like about this property: there are options.
A Newport Coast Home With Opportunity
During my walk-through with Ryan, we also looked at the potential of the property.
16 Via Perazul has an exceptional foundation: a large lot, tremendous privacy, beautiful views, generous outdoor space, and a premier location within Ocean Heights.
A new owner can enjoy the home today while also having the opportunity to further enhance the residence over time and take advantage of everything the site has to offer.
That distinction becomes particularly meaningful when looking at the upper end of the Ocean Heights market. With recent sales in the community exceeding $13 million, the underlying qualities of the property create an interesting opportunity for a buyer who understands the long-term value of location, land, privacy, and views.

There are certain aspects of a property that photographs simply cannot communicate.
The separation from neighboring homes, the scale of the backyard, the relationship between the indoor and outdoor spaces, and the views are all things you understand much better once you walk the property.
