Why people move here

A gated enclave on Johns Lake at the top of the Oakland market.

Johns Cove is a small gated community of custom and estate homes on Johns Lake, most built in the early 2000s. Homesites are generous, and the lakefront lots are some of the most sought-after addresses in West Orange County.
A community boat ramp puts the lake within reach even off the water. SR 50 and the Turnpike are minutes away, so the privacy does not cost you the commute.
Move-up buyers who want water, a gate and a custom home.
