Description
Tucked along a peaceful interior greenbelt in Irvine's sought-after Timberline community of Northwood, this beautifully updated nearly 1,200 sq ft condo is the kind of home that instantly feels right the moment you walk through the door. Warm, inviting, and truly turnkey, you step inside to an open, light-filled layout where the living room flows effortlessly into the dining and family room, anchored by a cozy fireplace that sets the tone for the entire home. The space opens seamlessly to a beautifully updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops, a butcher block-style island, stainless steel appliances, and custom wood shelving, a kitchen that is as functional as it is beautiful, with sliding doors opening to a private patio that floods the home with natural sunlight and that rare warm, connected indoor-outdoor feeling that makes everyday living feel calm and peaceful. Wide-plank LVP flooring, recessed lighting, and a newer HVAC system give the home a fresh, modern energy, while a powder bath and a two-car garage with built-in storage and a 240V EV-ready outlet round out the main level. Upstairs you will find two spacious bedrooms, each with its own refreshed ensuite bathroom and newer dual pane windows, creating a true dual-primary layout that is as flexible as it is genuinely rare in this price range, along with an upstairs laundry area that adds everyday ease right where you need it most. Low HOA dues, no Mello Roos, access to top-rated Irvine Unified schools including Brywood Elementary, Sierra Vista Middle, and Northwood High, two community pools, a playground, and lush greenbelts, all perfectly positioned near parks, popular shopping and dining, The Marketplace, Irvine Spectrum Center, South Coast Plaza, John Wayne Airport, and a short drive to Laguna Beach.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy student has reported that the drama teacher mocks the students' accents--particularly the Chinese and Indian students. I am absolutely shocked that someone in a position of power has either not been reported to the school/district, or has been reported and has been allowed to continue bullying the students in her class. My child's friend was targeted by this teacher and was humiliated and distressed.Parent Review8mo ago - Northwood High School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHad both kids graduate from NWH. This school is top notch in every way. When you hear your kids say college is easier than high school, you know you made a choice living in Northwood sending them to Northwood High.Parent Review8mo ago - Brywood Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children have been there for several years now. The principal lacks leadership abilities and accountability. All you need to do is walk the campus to witness the lack of pride and leadership- the campus is dirty. Trash left everywhere, all the time. Backpacks,clothes, lunch bags and balls are left out all over the campus. Its never cleaned up and kids aren't held accountable. The bathroom are filthy with spider webs and cockroaches. Safety- why in today's society IUSD doesn't fence in the schools or create a barrier is senseless and irresponsible. The school borders are public park and walkways with no barriers. Are they waiting for an unfortunate event to occur? There are many opportunities to improve the teaching and learning. The principal doesn't believe in spelling tests. Yet I see no progress in my child's ability to spell words. The lack of leadership is evident in the teaching and school environment. Other IUSD schools are not like this.Parent Review3mo ago
