About this listing

Beautifully Renovated 3-Bedroom Home in the Heart of Irvine

Welcome to this impeccably renovated two-story home just minutes from UC Irvine. Spanning 2,089 square feet on a quiet tree-lined street, this Scandinavian-inspired retreat blends warm natural materials with modern design — think blonde oak floors, brushed gold fixtures, and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Perfect for families, visiting professors, relocating professionals, or anyone who wants the best of Orange County living.

Living & Dining

The spacious living room is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stacked natural stone fireplace with a raised hearth — a true showpiece. Oversized windows flood the room with California sunshine, while plush rolled-arm sofas and mid-century woven leather accent chairs create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The open-plan dining area seats six comfortably at a herringbone-top wood table, with a carved oak sideboard adding character and storage.

Chef’s Kitchen

The heart of this home. A generous center island topped with white quartz marble-veined countertops provides prep space and casual dining for four. The kitchen features warm oak lower cabinetry paired with white shaker uppers, brushed gold hardware throughout, a 5-burner gas range, stainless steel appliances (including a side-by-side fridge with ice maker), dishwasher, and built-in microwave. A brass globe pendant light hangs above the island, and a sliding glass door opens directly to the backyard patio — perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Three beautifully appointed bedrooms on the upper level, each featuring designer reeded wood bed frames with arched headboards, crisp white bedding, gold table lamps, and modern matte black ceiling fans. One bedroom includes a sliding glass door to a private balcony overlooking the lush backyard. The bathrooms feature natural oak vanities, white quartz countertops, brushed gold faucets, and gold-framed mirrors — spa-like touches throughout.

Outdoor Living

Step through the kitchen’s sliding glass door onto a private concrete patio surrounded by a green lawn and mature trees, all enclosed by a wooden privacy fence. It’s the perfect space for morning coffee, evening barbecues, or simply enjoying Irvine’s year-round sunshine.
