I went with a client earlier this morning to register them at the new Adler at Saddle Crest development by Tri Pointe Homes in Silverado. They include both single and two story homes are large (10,000sf+) lots and several homes have views. Pricing was in the low to mid $2m for Phase 1 of which they sold 5 out of the 8. The pricing sheet is attached. The HOA is estimated to be $425 per month and the community will be guard gated, no Mello Roos. The broker co-op commission is $50,000 for this development.

Amazing homes. I've been watching this since 2019, but it took the original tract owner (Rutter Development) over a decade just to get the site as it stands today. They sold half to TriPoint who is building some great houses, with the other 1/2 (27 lots) staying with Rutter for Semi-custom builds. Giant lots. I heard one buyer ask the TriPoint Agents if the HOA would allow horses.... (No..)

Phase 2 has been released.

I like that the site map show the price for each available site and the pre-selected options for phase 1.
 
Given that they haven't sold a single home since their grand opening (according to their community map vs grand opening price sheet), dare I say they overpriced these? Beautiful homes and lots, not so great location.
 
You can walk over to cooks corner and drink with the bikers.
Or ride the luge and whiting ranch from your front door.
 
The TriPoint models are spectacular. The production homes seem reasonably priced given SF and lot sizes. I'm curious what the secondary builder's homes will look like (Rutter Development) Buyers will need to overlook the weekend motorcycles that rumble through the canyon. All that modified exhaust noise - and it really is booming at times - is a nuisance IMHO.

Looks like phase 3 view lots will break $3M.

We visited the Rutter Development models, not as impressed by the floorplans. Large houses but maybe unnecessarily large. Attaching the flooplans if anyone is curious.

Do you have any pricing for these?

That 4CWG @ Sage, something that will probably never happen in Irvine

I've never seen 4CWG in Riverside even. Saying that "something that will probably never happen in Irvine" is ridiculous because you would have to live in the middle of nowhere to get one of those. You know, those places with 2 acres backyard.
 
Wonder what the Optional Elevator in the Sage model is going to cost.

If I'm spending $2-3m on a home, I'd expect the toilets to be in a separate closed door area, not combined in the same room with the shower/sink. Also a single 4CWG is not a good look IMHO. I'd rather see 2 and 2, or 3, plus 1 on a different side of the home.

Imagine what the insurance must be like for these homes given the high fire area designation. YOW!

Why wouldn't a 4CWG not be a good look? I mean, it means you would have a really wide driveway. That would look great.

Having a plus 1 on a different side of the home means having another driveway, and it's probably not going to be straight into the garage, unless you have a corner lot, so that the driveway would be come from the other street. This plus 1 arrangement would probably be good for those so-call in-laws suite.

It's really just a personal preference - not having the garage dominate the first thing you see when arriving at the house.
 
Didn't bkshppr tell us 12 years ago why we should buy houses with no visible garage from the front?
Now when I see houses, I always give extra points to houses with no garage visible.
