ARCHITECTURAL HILLTOP RETREAT | PANORAMIC VIEWS | REBUILT CUSTOM HOME | NORTH TUSTIN SANCTUARY | Perched high above North Tustin on a premium 32,670 sq ft lot, 10551 Hillsboro Road offers a rare blend of architectural design, peaceful privacy, and breathtaking views that stretch from Catalina Island to the LA skyline. Reimagined from the ground up in 2017, this single-level, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom custom home was thoughtfully rebuilt to the highest standards, with only a portion of the original framing retained—reinforced with steel and brought fully up to modern code. The home’s layout was designed by an architect with both beauty and function in mind. Wide doorways, a wheelchair-accessible ensuite, and an open concept floorplan make it ideal for long-term livability. Smooth-finish walls, porcelain tile flooring throughout, solid core doors, 5/8" drywall, and expansive Kolbe metal-clad windows create a seamless, modern aesthetic that floods the home with light while preserving privacy and quiet. Every room offers a sense of calm, connection to the outdoors, and unmatched sunset and city-light views. The chef’s kitchen opens effortlessly into the dining and living areas, while motorized Hunter Douglas shades and a whole-house ELK M1 smart system provide luxury-level comfort and convenience. The rebuilt pool and new spa are framed by a steel patio cover with motorized shade, offering year-round enjoyment in your own secluded backyard haven. Two separate air conditioning units ensure personalized climate control throughout the home. Outdoors, the grounds are as intentional as the interior. Native plantings, fire-conscious landscaping, a private fruit orchard, and master-valve-controlled drip irrigation provide beauty and function with low maintenance in mind. An underground drainage system leads to the sewer, and all utilities are underground for a clean, unobstructed landscape. A 20-foot flagpole, collectible Japanese toro lanterns, and mature trees bring elegance and character to the expansive yard. This is more than a home—it’s a retreat, a legacy, and a place of peace. Lovingly cared for and deeply appreciated, 10551 Hillsboro Road is ready to welcome its next steward. Come experience one of North Tustin’s most serene and inspiring properties.
