A network of elegant, palm-lined lanes and rich landscaping, Hope Ranch is anything but a "ranch." Considered one of the most prestigious and gracious locales in the country, many of the grand estates here were designed by the leading architects of the turn of the century. The magnificent date palms long Marina and Las Palmas Drives are over 80 years old, and tower as high as 60 feet. There are horse riding trails, and a private beach area for residents.
