Sharon Ln, Huntington Beach

Sharon Lane is part of a small community of about 50 homes located near Beach Blvd and Ellis Avenue in Huntington Beach. Sharon Lane forms one side of a square of streets that also includes Lori Drive, Alice Lane and Connie Drive. In the center of the rectangle are two tennis courts, a community pool and a clubhouse. The homes in this community are over 2,000 square feet in size and detached. Instead of having individual yards they share common landscaped areas.

To the west of the community is a small park called Terry Park. The businesses of Beach Blvd are to the west, with a car dealership backing onto the community. The dealership is large enough that it doesn’t really cause noise problems but instead serves as a buffer for the traffic noises from busy Beach Blvd. The 5 Points shopping center is located near Sharon Lane. Central Park and Central Library are also nearby. Huntington City Beach is two miles away via Beach Blvd.

Although I’ve lived in Huntington Beach for over 20 years but I wasn’t aware of this little community until I visited some friends who live there. I was surprised by its peaceful atmosphere since it’s so close to Beach Blvd. My friends have lived there for several years and enjoy the closeness of their neighbors and the amenities they share. They like having the benefits of tennis courts, yard and pool without all the upkeep.
