New Luxury Homes Take Shape at Summit at Orchard Hills

Crestview, priced from around $2.9 million, is the final new-construction neighborhood at Summit at Orchard Hills Village, offering Spanish, Tuscan, and French provincial homes on generous homesites within a gated community.

If you've been waiting for a shot at brand-new construction in one of Irvine's most established master-planned villages, this is likely one of the last chances.

What's available at Crestview?

Shea Homes is building four floor plans ranging from about 2,826 to 3,259 square feet, each with 4 to 5 bedrooms and 4.5 to 5.5 bathrooms, plus 2-car garages. Homes feature open-concept great rooms that flow into chef's kitchens, primary suites with freestanding tubs, and optional add-ons like conservatory rooms, lofts, and home offices.

The neighborhood sits within the gated Crestview community, part of Summit at Orchard Hills Village, near the I-5 and the 241 Toll Road. A handful of quick move-in homes are typically available alongside standard build slots.

Why this matters for buyers

Orchard Hills has been one of Irvine's most in-demand master-planned villages for years, and new construction inventory there has been getting scarcer as the community builds out. Crestview being described as the "final neighborhood" of Orchard Hills means this is genuinely a last call for buyers who want brand-new construction with a builder warranty in this specific part of Irvine, rather than resale.

Families will also want to know the school assignment: Crestview falls within Irvine Unified, feeding into Canyon View Elementary, Sierra Vista Middle School, and Northwood High School.

What should I know before visiting?

HOA dues are estimated around $975 a month during development, settling to roughly $774 a month once complete. The sales office is open daily except Wednesdays (limited hours) and is located at 437 Treeline, Irvine.
