Cielo million dollar price drops

BKS taught us all a crapload about the history of residential development across SoCal - OG IHB was amazing

BKShopr on the old IHB had a few rules regarding ideal setbacks and lot sizes:

1. House area should not exceed 40% of lot size.

2. Front setback should match the house width.

3. Garage width should be 40% or less of house width.

4. Rear yard depth should be house height + 50%.

Good luck finding this in Irvine new construction today.

Even BK has to adjust with the times:



One of the floorplans even has a toilet over the kitchen.

Better than 3800 sq ft lot for a 3200 sq ft houses at Olivewood.

That's a low blow.

The new-home smell is too strong to resist. Each year, buyers pay more, only to get less. Reduced setbacks, narrow lots, motorcourts, 3-story homes....

What a dogshit property - so glad I’m getting inoculated against Irvine new build at any cost
