    What's special

    Welcome to the pinnacle of luxury living in Irvine’s premier University Park community. Meticulously transformed through a complete top-to-bottom remodel, this sophisticated residence blends modern elegance with a highly functional layout. From a gated entry courtyard, step inside to discover a luminous design highlighted by light neutral designer paint, premium wood flooring and a chef-inspired kitchen with exquisite marble countertops and top-tier stainless steel appliances. Freshly painted exterior walls and additional parking via the oversized driveway enhance the property. The expansive floor plan accommodates daily life and grand-scale indoor/outdoor entertaining. Near the entry is garage access and a fully renovated lower-level guest bath with a convenient step-in shower, perfect after an afternoon at the community pool. The primary suite, with two separate enclosed spaces, serves as a private sanctuary featuring a long dual-sink vanity, a spacious pool and neighborhood view room with a striking fireplace, and a separately enclosed bonus space ideal for a nursery, library or home office. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a fully renovated dual-sink vanity guest bath complete the interior. The private, fully fenced backyard opens directly onto a lush greenbelt, perfect for play or relaxation, and provides immediate access to the resort-style community pool and tennis courts. Vehicles are accommodated by a direct-access oversized two-car garage, two-car driveway and ample street parking. Rarely available in University Park, this extensively renovated residence combines luxury finishes, flexible living spaces and an exceptional location. Backing to a greenbelt with direct access to community amenities, the home offers a unique blend of privacy, convenience and indoor-outdoor living that is increasingly difficult to find in Irvine. University Park Association members enjoy resort amenities, sprawling parklands, low monthly dues and a competitive low tax rate. Families benefit from award-winning Irvine Unified schools including University Park Elementary, Rancho San Joaquin Middle School and University High School. With University of California, Irvine moments away, you are also minutes from South Coast Plaza, Irvine Spectrum Center, championship golf, convenient access to John Wayne Airport without the associated noise, and the coastal enclaves of Newport Beach and Laguna Beach. Welcome home.
