Property Description
Set on a premier cul-de-sac with enhanced privacy, 102 Balance is Cadence Park's most extensively upgraded estate, delivering over $600,000 in custom improvements across 4,834 square feet of architecturally refined living. At nearly 800 square feet larger than the average home being constructed in Great Park, this opportunity will not return. The crown jewel is a $400,000 resort-style backyard unlike anything else in Irvine - a custom-built elevated spa with cascading waterfall features, ambient LED lighting, premium stone finishes, and a custom putting green. Designer lighting illuminates a tranquil Buddha feature wall, while built-in seating, modern retaining walls, mature landscaping, and high-end hardscape create a true private sanctuary. The expansive California Room and upgraded sliding doors dissolve the boundary between indoor and outdoor living. Inside, 5 bedrooms, 5 full bathrooms, and 2 half bathrooms are arranged across an open-concept floor plan flooded with natural light. The gourmet chef's kitchen features modern cabinetry, premium appliances, a spacious center island, and an oversized walk-in pantry. A coveted main-level bedroom, a flexible loft, and multi-purpose spaces accommodate a home office, gym, or extended family living. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a spa-inspired bathroom, custom walk-in closet, and a private balcony with sweeping mountain views where every morning begins with a breathtaking sunrise. Every additional bedroom enjoys ensuite privacy. Custom closets throughout, new hard-surface flooring, statement wall paneling, premium window coverings, enhanced pantry and mudroom, dual EV charging stations, a Ring security system, and a pre-wired backyard sound system. The lifestyle here is irreplaceable. Served by two of California's top-rated public schools, Cadence Park K-8 (ranked in the top 20% in California) and Portola High School (10/10 GreatSchools, A+ on Niche), both are within walking distance. Residents enjoy resort-style Cadence Park amenities including pools, spa, clubhouse, parks, and trails. The neighborhood is also accelerating. The Canopy at Great Park opens just steps away in late 2026, bringing In-N-Out, Philz Coffee, H&H Bagels, T&T Supermarket, and a 10,000-seat amphitheater to your doorstep, transforming Cadence Park into Orange County's most coveted lifestyle address. Buyers seeking this level of size, finish, and location in Great Park will find no equivalent being built today.
