About This Home
We are excited to reintroduce you to 38 Upperbend—newly updated and better than ever. This move-in-ready home in the Paloma neighborhood of Portola Springs, Irvine, offers timeless charm, modern upgrades, and exceptional livability. Beyond the private gated entry, a flagstone courtyard and side patio create the perfect first impression. Inside, the open-concept layout connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas in a bright, inviting flow. Exposed wood-beamed ceilings, crown moulding, and a freshly painted white brick fireplace bring warmth and character, while wide-plank mahogany hardwood floors pair beautifully with the natural stone tile found in the kitchen and baths. The chef-inspired kitchen features quartz countertops, high-end stainless steel appliances, and a spacious walk-in pantry. Whether you’re preparing dinner for two or hosting guests, the design perfectly balances style and function. Upstairs, a generous loft offers flexible space for a home office, playroom, or cozy lounge. The primary suite is a true retreat with its own private patio, a walk-in closet, and a spa-style bath complete with dual sinks, a soaking tub, and an upgraded shower. Two secondary bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, and the upstairs laundry room adds everyday convenience. With only one shared wall at the first level, enjoy the comfort of added privacy. Additional upgrades include fresh interior paint, updated LED recessed lighting, and new designer-selected furnishings (with an option to include them in the purchase). The two-car attached garage, double-pane windows, and upgraded ceiling fans throughout further enhance the home’s comfort and efficiency. Outside, the low-maintenance landscaping and private side yard make entertaining effortless. Located within the award-winning Irvine Unified School District, residents of Portola Springs enjoy resort-style amenities including pools, parks, playgrounds, tennis courts, and scenic hiking trails. Beautifully updated, perfectly located, and thoughtfully designed, 38 Upperbend offers the best of Irvine living in one of its most desirable communities.
