Pros & Cons

Pros

Award-Winning School District: Located within the highly-rated Irvine School District, with top-tier schools like Portola Springs Elementary (rated 9) and Jeffrey Trail Middle (rated 9) nearby, making it highly attractive to families.
Modern & Upgraded Interior: Features an open-concept floorplan, a gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a spacious island, and laminated wood flooring throughout, offering contemporary living.
Extensive Community Amenities: Residents enjoy access to a wealth of Portola Springs amenities including tennis courts, Jr. Olympic size pools, clubhouses, over 14 parks, tot lots, and sport/pickleball courts.
Newer Construction: Built in 2015, this home offers modern construction standards, energy efficiency, and potentially fewer immediate maintenance concerns compared to older properties.
Detached Home Advantage: Despite being a condominium sub-type, it is a detached home, providing the privacy and feel of a single-family residence without shared walls, a unique benefit within this community.

Cons

High Mello Roos and HOA Fees: The property carries significant additional costs with annual Mello Roos of $3,402 and a monthly association fee of $125, adding to the overall cost of ownership.
Condominium Sub-type Restrictions: Although a detached home, its condominium sub-type may imply HOA restrictions on exterior modifications, landscaping, or other aspects typically associated with traditional single-family home ownership.
Lack of Specific View: The property description explicitly states 'view: None', which could be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic vistas, especially in a desirable Southern California location.
