Following the success of The Cove at Cerritos—our sold-out development known for its beautiful design and strong sense of community—The Cove Residences takes things to the next level.
This project focuses on privacy, exclusivity, and convenience and sets a new standard for beachfront living in Cerritos.
Developers Rob Chorney and Shannon Clairmont are dedicated to creating spaces that combine luxury and a sense of belonging. Recently, we had the opportunity to sit down with them to discuss the unique features of their new project and the inspiration that drives them. Read on to learn more about this project redefining luxury in Cerritos.
What Makes The Cove Residences Unique?
The developer team has designed The Cove Residences to stand out by offering luxury and exclusivity not seen before in Cerritos. With only four oceanfront condos, each property is a private retreat with space, elegance, and comfort.
“Privacy was a key consideration,” says Shannon. “Each condo has its pool and expansive outdoor areas, so homeowners can feel like they have their slice of paradise.”
The team has designed each home with clean lines, open spaces, and an emphasis on connecting indoor and outdoor living. “These are homes where you can truly relax,” says Shannon. “You have the Pacific Ocean as your backdrop; we have crafted every detail to enhance that experience.”
The Cove Residences offers more than just a place to live. Luxury, privacy, and the natural beauty of Cerritos define this lifestyle.
Oceanfront Scarcity: A Rare Opportunity
Oceanfront property is among the world’s most coveted real estate assets, and Cerritos is no exception. With its pristine coastline and unspoiled views of the Pacific, opportunities to own a slice of this paradise are limited.
“Oceanfront is finite,” says Shannon. “God only created so much coastline, and once it’s gone, it’s gone.” This perspective has shaped their approach to The Cove Residences, making it a once-in-a-lifetime investment opportunity for discerning buyers.
The scarcity of oceanfront land and the growing demand for exclusive properties in Cerritos ensures that The Cove Residences will remain highly desirable. “This isn’t just a home,” Rob adds. “It’s an asset that will appreciate over time, not just financially but in the lifestyle it offers.”
For those seeking exclusivity, tranquility, and an unparalleled connection to nature, The Cove Residences provides the chance to own a piece of something truly extraordinary. As the developers point out, oceanfront opportunities like this don’t come along often and don’t last long.
Move-In Ready with a Personal Touch: Interior Design by OCHO+CO
Furnishing a new home can be exciting but also overwhelming, especially for buyers who don’t live locally. Many homeowners at The Cove at Cerritos were enthusiastic about personalizing their space. However, they found the process of sourcing furniture, decor, and finishes more challenging than anticipated.
To streamline this experience, The Cove Residences offers fully turnkey homes. “We realized that furnishing a home from scratch can be overwhelming,” says Rob. “We’re eliminating the hassle by providing high-end, fully furnished homes.”
Each residence is move-in ready, yet buyers still have the option to personalize their spaces with selected finishes and furnishings. Rob and Shannon have appointed a highly regarded local interior designer to assist buyers in furnishing their homes, down to the linens.
The interior design firm OCHO+CO serves as the official design team for The Cove Residences. They will play a crucial role in shaping the development’s public and private spaces, incorporating luxury local details.
Christian Minor, the firm’s director, has a design career that spans Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle. OCHO+CO’s work seamlessly blends modern luxury with local artisan craftsmanship, delivering exceptional design solutions for luxury homes and hospitality spaces in Mexico and the United States.
The firm’s portfolio includes collaborations with world-renowned brands such as Four Seasons, Ritz-Carlton, One&Only Palmilla, Chileno Bay, and various local and international luxury residences.
This thoughtful approach ensures homeowners enjoy their new home from day one without the stress of furnishing and logistics. “It’s about creating a seamless experience,” Rob adds. “They can move in and start enjoying their oceanfront retreat immediately, with zero delays or complications.”
Community Atmosphere: Where Like-Minded Neighbors Become Lifelong Friends
The Cove at Cerritos cultivates a unique atmosphere that blends relaxation, connection, and a shared appreciation for the outdoors. Residents are like-minded individuals who value adventure, wellness, and a strong sense of community. The area’s peaceful environment draws homeowners. They can unwind and embrace a slower pace without sacrificing modern comforts.
“People come here, and they learn to relax,” says Rob. “Or they learn to have fun. They learn to leave all their troubles behind.”
One of The Cove’s defining features is the sense of camaraderie among homeowners. “Nobody wants to leave,” Shannon adds. Whether homeowners or renters, they fall in love with the lifestyle and the connections they build here.
This place is where neighbors become friends, bonded by a shared appreciation for Cerritos’s natural beauty and the wellness-focused lifestyle it promotes. With farm-to-table restaurants, fresh ocean air, and a focus on outdoor activities like surfing, hiking, and yoga, The Cove at Cerritos naturally attracts residents who prioritize health, sustainability, and community.
“We’ve found that many of the people who buy here have similar values,” Shannon explains. “They want a connection to nature, a vibrant but low-key social scene, and a home where they can truly relax.”
Rob and Shannon expect the buyers of The Cove Residences to have many of the same characteristics and interests as the ones at their first development.
A Natural Next Step: The Vision Behind The Cove Residences
It’s always valuable to reflect on the motivations behind one’s work, especially in a labor-intensive field like luxury residential development. After completing The Cove at Cerritos, Rob and Shannon knew they wanted to continue. Their drive comes from a passion for creating exquisite, high-quality homes that showcase exceptional design and enhance the lives of their clients.
“When you complete a project,” says Shannon, “it’s like sending a child to college. You feel a sense of pride, but also, you don’t want to let it go.” The idea for The Cove Residences came from the many buyers who missed the first development and wanted another chance.
“We had so many people approach us asking if there were resales or new opportunities at The Cove at Cerritos, but nothing was available,” says Rob. “Our homeowners loved it so much that no one wanted to sell. That’s when we realized there was a unique opportunity to bring something even more special to Cerritos.”
The developers designed The Cove Residences to offer a more private and exclusive experience. With just four luxury condos, each with oceanfront views and top-tier amenities, the development offers the best of luxury living in Cerritos.
“It’s not just about building condos,” Rob explains. “It’s about creating spaces where people feel a profound connection—to the ocean, their home, and each other.”
Shannon adds, “We wanted to take everything we learned from our first development and elevate it. This time, we’re creating homes that are not only luxurious but completely turnkey, making the experience effortless for our buyers.”
Rob and Shannon’s hands-on approach and attention to detail ensure that The Cove Residences will pioneer Cerritos’ luxury real estate market.
Looking Ahead: What to Expect
The Cove Residences represents a vision brought to life with thoughtful planning and an emphasis on luxury. As construction progresses, potential buyers can look forward to updates and milestones highlighting the project’s care and precision.
“We’re at the tail end of getting permits and expect to break ground soon,” says Rob. “We aim to deliver these homes by 2026 and are committed to ensuring every detail is perfect before moving forward.”
The 18-month to two-year construction timeline ensures that no corners are cut and that every aspect of the home meets the high standards buyers expect. Interested parties will receive updates on the progress, keeping them engaged and excited about owning a home in this exclusive community.
“Our focus is on creating a seamless experience, from the moment someone decides to invest to the day they step into their finished home,” Shannon adds. “We want every action to reflect the same care and attention we put into the design and construction.”
For those considering The Cove Residences, the countdown to 2026 is more than just a timeline—it’s the beginning of a lifestyle defined by luxury, exclusivity, and a connection to Cerritos’s unmatched beauty.
