About this home
Set within the cherished Lemon Heights neighborhood of North Tustin, this charming single-story John Lyttle home feels special from the moment you arrive. Positioned on a large corner lot with Peters Canyon Regional Park directly behind the property and Bent Tree Park across the street, the setting is peaceful, private, and beautifully connected to nature. Set well back from the road beneath mature shade trees, the home enjoys storybook curb appeal, a park-like front lawn, privacy fencing, and professionally designed front and rear landscaping by Rogers Gardens. The quality craftsmanship and timeless design associated with famed local builder John Lyttle are evident throughout, giving the home a warmth and character that is increasingly hard to find. Double entry doors open to a gracious interior where the living room makes an immediate impression with soaring vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and views straight through to the backyard and pool. The fireplace is shared with the family room, where wood-beam ceilings, a seating hearth, built-ins, and a wall of French doors create a cozy, inviting place to gather. The kitchen opens to the family room and breakfast area, with an adjacent formal dining room that makes entertaining easy. Just off the kitchen, a dedicated interior laundry room with a sink and generous storage adds everyday convenience. A privately situated en-suite bedroom is set apart from the main bedroom wing, making it ideal for guests, extended family, or a quiet home office. A powder bath leads to three additional bedrooms, a hall bathroom, and the primary suite, which features a spacious bath and dual closets. New wide-plank European oak flooring and fresh interior paint bring a fresh, updated feel while still honoring the home’s original character. Outside, the grounds are every bit as appealing as the interiors, with a resort-like backyard, sparkling pool, generous patio space, mature landscaping, and a wonderful sense of privacy. A detached four-car garage with additional storage completes the property. Zoned for award-winning Tustin Unified schools, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the space, beauty, and timeless charm that make Lemon Heights such a beloved place to call home.
Lemon Heights, located between Newport Avenue and the foothills of the Santa Ana Mountains, is a residential and semi-rural North Tustin neighborhood with winding hillside roads and citrus-grove traces. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Newport Ave & E 17th St corridor, where independent cafes, bakeries, and small specialty storefronts set a polished, local rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward mid-century ranch homes, custom estates, and view-oriented properties tucked behind mature landscaping. Peters Canyon Regional Park frames the eastern edge with trailheads and open-space scenery. The Tustin Marketplace adds a modern retail counterpoint nearby, while quiet lanes and larger lots keep the pace unhurried.
