Fun Facts & Trivia About Laguna Altura
It is one of the very few master-planned communities located entirely on the ocean side of the 405 Freeway. This specific position places it right at the gateway to Laguna Canyon, giving it a much closer proximity to the coast than most of inland Irvine.
It is incredibly private and boutique compared to Irvine’s massive mega-villages. The entire enclave spans just about 74 acres and is fully gated, creating a highly secure, intimate bowl-shaped neighborhood surrounded by rolling canyon views.
The entire village features a classic Italian architectural style. To match this European aesthetic, the four distinct home tracts within the gates are all given classic Italian names: Siena, San Remo, Cortona, and Toscana.
