Property Details

Description

Some addresses simply make life feel easier. 12 Tortoise Shell is one of them. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this detached four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home offers the kind of privacy and peaceful setting that's becoming increasingly rare. The moment you arrive, the slower pace is unmistakable. Neighbors wave as they pass, and there's an unmistakable sense of comfort that makes this home feel welcoming from the very first visit. Inside, the home unfolds with purpose. Natural light fills the living spaces, creating an easy flow between gathering, relaxing, and everyday living. Separate living and family rooms provide flexibility for both entertaining and quiet evenings at home, while four generously sized bedrooms offer space for family, guests, a home office, or whatever the next chapter calls for. The backyard becomes an extension of the home, a private place for morning coffee, weekend barbecues, or simply enjoying Irvine's year-round sunshine. Life here extends well beyond the front door. Set within one of Irvine's most established communities, you'll enjoy access to resort-style amenities including a pool, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and beautifully maintained parks and greenbelts. The HOA also maintains the exterior paint and stucco, allowing you to spend less time worrying about upkeep and more time enjoying everything this exceptional neighborhood has to offer. The location is served by the Irvine Unified School District, consistently recognized as the No. 1 best school district in Orange County and among the top districts in California, with an A+ overall rating from Niche for its exceptional academics and highly rated teachers. Add in exceptional shopping and dining, convenient freeway access, and Irvine's consistent recognition as one of the safest large cities in the United States, and it's easy to understand why this address offers more than a place to live. It offers peace of mind. There may be a tortoise in the street name, but life at 12 Tortoise Shell moves at exactly the pace you've been searching for. Peaceful when you're home. Connected when you're ready to explore. The only way to truly appreciate it is to experience it for yourself.

"My Mom passed away 1/31/21 needless to say it was a very difficult time for me. I needed help selling my mothers home. I reached out to Ever and he stepped up big! From the beginning he was a true professional great communication skills, great attitude, always made time for me and answered any questions I had. He showed compassion for my situation and went above and beyond to make things as easy as possible for me. Go with Ever you won’t regret it!"

"I worked with Ever through the process of an Estate Sale and sale of a condominium. Throughout the experience he and his team were extremely helpful. I had never been involved with an estate sale previously and was working with the additional factor of not being local. After an initial meeting I was able to deal with he and his team remotely which simplified the entire process and experience. Any questions or issues I had were very quickly addressed and resolved. My entire experience was very positive. Thank You!"

"Ever was simply excellent. He is thorough, approachable and very knowledgable of the house buying process. We appreciated his manner and help throughout our purchase process - he never made us feel pressured to select a house and helped us find a perfect match. He was especially helpful when we needed to juggle urgent travel during the Escrow process, helping us set up power of attorney. We would recommend Ever to any type of buyer and will certainly use him for any future real estate needs that we have."
