Sunset over Orange County from the house

The View

Every evening, the county turns its lights on for you.

The ocean, downtown Los Angeles, and the mountains — all in the same sweep, and it runs well past a hundred and eighty degrees. Panorama Heights homes sell on the view, and this is the top of the hill.

The sun sets over the water. An hour later the whole basin is lit — the coastline one way, the downtown Los Angeles skyline the other, the mountains behind it — and the house does the only thing it was ever designed to do.

The lap pool, replastered and retiled in 2026, with the county beyond

Pool & Spa

A lap pool on its own terrace, finished this month.

Replastered and retiled in July 2026, with a new heater and a new pump already in. Raised spa, room for a dozen loungers, and the county laid out past the palms.

  • 2026 · Replastered & retiled
  • 2025 · New heater
  • 2025 · New pump
  • Outdoor speakers
The private sport court, completely redone in July 2026 and striped for tennis and pickleball

Tennis & Pickleball

Your own court, and never a booking to make.

A full-size private court on its own hillside terrace, completely redone in July 2026 — resurfaced, striped for both tennis and pickleball, and fitted with a brand-new net. There's a hoop at one end and lights for playing after dark.

  • July 2026 · Fully redone
  • Tennis
  • Pickleball
  • Lighted for night play
  • Outdoor speakers

Full-size courts almost never come with a house at this price in North Tustin — and when they do, they are usually thirty years into their last resurface. This one was finished in July 2026, and it plays both without anyone having to reserve a thing.

Features

Upgrades & Improvements

Nearly everything has already been replaced.

16 major projects since 2022

Sixteen major projects between 2022 and 2026 — roof, every window and the blinds behind them, the water and gas lines into the house, the pool, the sport court, and the paint. A 1991 build with none of the deferred maintenance that usually comes with one.

Panorama Heights · North Tustin

Above the county, fifteen minutes from everything.

Panorama Heights is a hillside pocket of unincorporated North Tustin — custom homes on generous lots, no HOA, and the kind of quiet you only get above the grid. It's the semi-rural character, and the fact that lots like these stopped being made decades ago, that has kept the 92705 streets in demand for fifty years.

The location works as hard as the view. Irvine and the South Coast Metro are about fifteen minutes down the hill, John Wayne Airport twenty, and Old Town Tustin's restaurants sit at the bottom of the slope. Trailheads in Peters Canyon are minutes away; the beach is half an hour.

  • Irvine ~15 min
  • South Coast Metro ~15 min
  • John Wayne Airport ~20 min
  • Old Town Tustin ~7 min
  • Peters Canyon trailhead ~5 min
  • The beach ~30 min

Questions

The things buyers ask first.

Is there an HOA?

No. Panorama Heights is unincorporated Orange County — custom homes on individual lots, no association and no HOA dues.

Is the address Santa Ana or North Tustin?

Both are correct, which confuses almost everyone. The postal address is Santa Ana 92705, the land is unincorporated Orange County, and the community is known locally as Panorama Heights, in the area everyone calls North Tustin. It is not inside the city of Santa Ana.

What would the property taxes be?

At Orange County's roughly 1.05% effective rate, a $3,598,000 assessed value works out to about $37,800 a year — roughly $3,150 a month. That is an estimate only: rates, direct assessments, and any special districts should be verified with the Orange County Assessor before you rely on the number.

The house was built in 1991 — what has actually been updated?

Most of what buyers usually worry about. Since 2022: a new roof including a new torch-down flat roof, all 79 windows plus blackout blinds and sunshades throughout, the water and gas lines into the house, a 9-camera security system, the pool replastered and retiled with a new pump and heater, the court completely redone and striped for tennis and pickleball, every concrete deck plus the rooftop view deck resurfaced and re-graded, and fresh paint on the front elevation, the wood deck, and the railings. The full dated list is above.

It's built into a hillside — how do you get between the levels?

There is a private elevator serving the home's levels, so moving between floors doesn't have to mean the stairs. On a house built into a slope that matters more than it sounds — it is what keeps groceries, luggage, and anyone with mobility limits from being a daily consideration. Worth riding it yourself at a showing to see exactly which levels it serves.

What can you actually see from the house?

The ocean, the downtown Los Angeles skyline, and the mountains — all from the same vantage point, in a sweep that runs well past 180 degrees. It faces west and southwest over Orange County toward the coast, which is why the sunsets and the evening city lights are the whole point of the house.

What can you actually play on the court?

Tennis and pickleball. The full-size private court was completely redone in July 2026 — resurfaced, striped for both, and fitted with a brand-new net. There is also a hoop at one end. It is lighted, so it plays after dark too.

Can I see it before scheduling a showing?

Yes — the Matterport walkthrough on this page is the entire house, every room, at any hour. Buyers routinely tour it twice before booking a showing.
