    We are looking into nearby private schools.  We live in Newport Beach.  Any thoughts/comments on Newport Christian School?  (This school happens to be closest to our house). Thanks much!

    Orchard Hills North

    Hello- does anyone know if Brookfield will be building La Vita or similar homes in Orchard Hills North?  Now that we've looked around for a while, our favorite so far (in our price range) is the La Vita "view" homes.  But we still haven't been able overcome the fear of motor court living... ...

    Which would you rather buy?

    Neither!  Appx 4000 sq foot lots with either pesticides or a landfill- no thanks!

    Chinese Immersion Programs

    Hello- I was wondering if anyone has direct experience with Renascence School?  They seem fairly new, so we're wondering about what people think (in particular their trilingual immersion program, academics and general reputation, etc).  Thanks!

    Eastwood Village (Planning Area 5B) coming 2017

    I agree.  Another boring, sardine packed TIC village.  These lot sizes are super tiny and super cramped-- TIC seems to get greedier with each village.  If Eastwood is not coming online until 2017, who knows what the market will be like.  Orchard Hills has an artificial feel of exclusiveness, so...

    Palo Alto in Stonegate by KB

    I agree with Aquabliss- Plan 3 layout looks good- *hopefully* it will have 10ft ceilings and decent lot size... Do you all think that this will be a better development than the larger single family homes planned for Eastwood?  Based on the Eastwood plans, is Stonegate a better option?  Or do you...

    Eastwood Village (Planning Area 5B) coming 2017

    How disappointing to see that this will be just another boring TIC village.  We were hoping there would be less condos in the mix and larger lot sizes (esp the homes backing up to the trail)...any clue if there will be any?  If you're looking for a 3,000 sq ft + house with a decent lot size (not...

    Orchard Hills North

    Just curious- we think that living by the orchards is a HUGE negative (pesticides, rodents, etc. etc.), so why do people here view it as a plus?  I think the Irvine Company uses it as some sort of marketing gimmick but when you think about it, it's not like you're living near a park or nature...

    Eastwood Village (Planning Area 5B) coming 2017

    For us, OH has too many active orchards surrounding the developments-- mainly concerns re pesticides (we have young children).  We were mainly interested in the gated side (looking for something over 3,000 sq ft) - Some layouts worked for us, but didn't have 10ft ceilings, so we ruled them out...

    Eastwood Village (Planning Area 5B) coming 2017

    Hello- does anyone know when this development is planned for?  We were really disappointed by Orchard Hills and are hoping this might be an option for us...  Thanks!
