    What's special

    PRIME LOCATION • PRIVATE GREENBELT SETTING • SPACIOUS BACKYARD • 5 BEDROOMS WITH ONE AT MAIN LEVEL Welcome to this exceptional 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom single-family home in the highly sought-after Pavilion Park community of Great Park, Irvine. Situated on a quiet interior street and backing directly to a lush greenbelt with no homes immediately behind, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, tranquility, and one of the most desirable locations in the neighborhood. The thoughtfully designed and highly functional floor plan provides exceptional flexibility, featuring two separate living spaces, one downstairs, and another one upstairs, and a highly desirable downstairs bedroom suite—ideal for guests, extended family, or a private home office. Plantation shutters and recessed lightings throughout add timeless style and functionality. The open-concept main living area seamlessly connects the family room, dining area, and kitchen, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The well-appointed kitchen features granite countertops, an oversized center island, 6 burner built-in cooktop, Kitchen Aid Appliances, abundant cabinetry and storage, and convenient direct access to the garage. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite provides a private retreat with its own balcony overlooking the peaceful surroundings. The primary bathroom features tile flooring, dual vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and a generous walk-in closet. The expansive backyard is one of the home's standout features. With a built-in BBQ, water fountain, ample space for outdoor dining and entertainment, and a private greenbelt backdrop, the yard offers a peaceful setting that is increasingly difficult to find in newer Irvine communities. Whether hosting friends and family or simply enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, this backyard provides a wonderful extension of the home's living space. Enjoy the exceptional lifestyle of Great Park with nearby parks, pools, playgrounds, and community amenities, all within walking distance. The home is also conveniently located near Woodbury Town Center and Irvine Spectrum, with easy access to the 133 Toll Road and 5 and 405 freeways. Families will appreciate proximity to highly regarded Irvine schools, including Beacon Park School and Portola High School. An added benefit is lower Mello-Roos compared with many newer developments featuring similarly sized homes.
