About This Home

As of October 2024

Discover unparalleled luxury and sophistication in this stunning 2-bedroom penthouse, where custom-built elegance meets an extraordinary value. From the moment you enter, you’ll be captivated by the glittering gourmet kitchen, designed for both functionality and flair. The massive quartz island, sleek quartz countertops, and chic tile backsplash set the stage for culinary mastery, while top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, a farmhouse-style sink, and elegant crown molding complete the picture of modern luxury.
The seamless flow continues throughout the home, with LED lighting, smooth ceilings, and opulent vinyl plank flooring adding a touch of contemporary style to every room. Enjoy cozy evenings by the custom-built fireplace, and appreciate the energy efficiency of double-pane windows and a newer central heating and air-conditioning system. The penthouse also features the convenience of washer/dryer hookups.
Retreat to the fully remodeled bathrooms, where custom-tile showers and quartz-counter vanities bring a spa-like experience to your daily routine. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to provide a sense of modern opulence at an irresistible price.
Nestled within the gated community of St. Albans, this penthouse offers a tranquil, park-like setting paired with resort-style amenities. Enjoy the use of two lit tennis courts, two sparkling pools, two bubbling spas, and a fully equipped gym, all designed to elevate your living experience.
Located in the heart of South Coast Metro, one of Orange County’s most vibrant neighborhoods, this penthouse condo places you at the epicenter of premier shopping, dining, and entertainment. Indulge in world-class experiences at nearby South Coast Plaza, catch captivating performances at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts, and immerse yourself in the culture at the Tony Award-winning South Coast Repertory.
With convenient access to major freeways, including the 405, 55, 73, and 5, the best of Orange County is at your fingertips—from the magic of Disneyland to the sun-kissed shores of its iconic beaches. This condo is not just a home, it’s a gateway to the Southern California lifestyle. Don’t miss your chance to own this exceptional residence and experience the perfect blend of luxury, convenience, and entertainment.
The St. Albans HOA purchased the land in 1999 and the condo owners only pay $1 per year to the HOA, which means qualified buyers can get conventional and FHA financing.
