    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    Strada has definitely established a momentum.  Can't slow that train down.  A neighbor was telling me that they were approached by someone recently asking if they were interested in selling their Plan 2, they're not.  There doesn't appear to have been any post-escrow home sales in Strada as far...

    La Vita at Orchard Hills

    I don't know why some folks are so against La Vita's motorcourts.  Certainly wouldn't be a negative for me - you're getting a driveway and a motorcourt.

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    It'll be interesting to see the pricing for Phase 20 to get a better idea of increases for regular lots (Phase 19 has a couple of big lots too).  Having said that, I don't think the streets down the other side will be as nice as those off Horseshoe since they're at the bottom of the boundary...

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    10ft is too small to contemplate a conservatory!  However, most yards don't have a 10ft setback; I'd say 14-18ft is probably average.  The 2X and 3X look nicer than the regular 2s and 3s from the outside, plus there's the benefit of extra storage space off the laundry and potential...

    Yes, any setback over 18' is a good size for OH.

    It depends how "small" a small backyard is.  Anything less than 10ft, even with a view, wouldn't be tolerable for me.  We spend a lot of time outside.

    Help us decide...

    This has kept me awake at night so I can't begin to describe how relieved I am that a decision has been made.  Phew!

    The club house is located further up the hill, behind Strada.  There's the clubhouse, Olympic pool, kids' pool, playground etc., all accessible to Strada, Terrazza, Vista Scena et al residents.

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    Plan 3 without a doubt as the views at that cul-de-sac will be priceless. However, those views will really only be appreciated from the second floor by the homeowner.  It's a real shame the builder didn't flip Plans the other way around on certain lots, so the family room is facing the view...

    There are at least 2 other houses that I know of where the owners haven't chosen white cabinets.  They're both 3Xs.  There has to be more.

    Wars have started over less.  This is your home so go with something that reflects your taste.  There are a lot of homes in Strada with white cabinets, so you'd be bucking the trend.

    They look brown on my screen.  If you're planning on being there a while, then you should go with the sage as that's your preference.  What color floor/walls?

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    There's a good mix, but 75% Asian is stretching it.  What I have noticed is that a lot of residents have lived in OC for years.

    If it looks smaller, it's because the model is shown with a conservatory.

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    There's always going to homes going up for rent - luckily for Ariesinapril it's across the road and not next door.  :P It's the shame the upgrades are minimal as it's a nice lot with good views on a quiet street.  Too bad they didn't paint the interior at least.  The "cut" for the Plan 3 is...

    Orchard Hills - Strada by Irvine Pacific

    Lot 122 is a 3G so I think that has the stonework and is a regular sized lot.  The larger lots in Phase 15 are 125 (3E), 126 (1GR), 127 (2ER) and 128 (3XD).  Even though 128 is on Horseshoe, it's an excellent sized lot with a nice square yard - it's sold of course.  The other lots have...
