The Neighborhood

Aliso Viejo: Orange County's Best-Kept Secret

"Aliso Viejo routinely ranks among the safest, most family-friendly cities in all of California — and the Lyon Ridge neighborhood exemplifies exactly why."

Incorporated as Orange County's 34th city in 2001, Aliso Viejo has earned a reputation for well-maintained streets, abundant green spaces, and a strong sense of community. The city sits at the crossroads of the 73 Toll Road and Interstate 5, placing residents within easy reach of both Irvine's tech corridor and the beaches of Laguna Niguel and Dana Point.

From 5 Lyon Ridge, you're minutes from Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park — one of the largest open spaces in Southern California — where miles of hiking, mountain biking, and trail running await. Local shopping, dining, and the Aliso Viejo Town Center are all close by, making daily errands effortless without the congestion of larger Orange County cities.

The Lyon Ridge subdivision itself is a tightly knit community of well-kept single-family homes. With low HOA fees (just $145/month plus a $224/quarter Aliso Viejo Community HOA), you gain access to a community that maintains its aesthetic standards and neighborly feel without breaking the bank.

Energy & Investment

Fully Paid Solar: A Rare and Significant Advantage

Beyond the solar savings, the home's financial profile is compelling. The current tax assessed value sits at $816,239, with annual taxes of approximately $8,240. At a list price of $702 per square foot, and with a Zillow Zestimate of $2,154,000, the home is priced competitively relative to comparable sales in the surrounding area.

All utilities are connected — cable, electricity, natural gas, sewer, and water — and the home is wired for sound throughout. With new-construction alternatives in Orange County often priced higher for less square footage and no mature neighborhood amenities, 5 Lyon Ridge represents a compelling value proposition for discerning buyers.

The Perfect Buyer

Is 5 Lyon Ridge the Right Fit for You?

This home is ideally suited for:

Growing families who need space, great schools, and a safe neighborhood where kids can ride bikes and play outside. The cul-de-sac location means minimal through traffic, and the elementary school at the neighborhood entrance makes the morning routine genuinely easy.

Move-up buyers transitioning from a smaller Orange County home who want to land in a turnkey, updated property without a lengthy renovation project. This home is rated "Updated/Remodeled, Turnkey" — meaning you can move in and start living on day one.

Remote workers and multi-generational households who value a dedicated main-floor bedroom and bath, a flexible 3-car garage, and a private backyard that functions as a true outdoor room year-round.

Sustainability-minded buyers who want to dramatically reduce their carbon footprint and monthly overhead — without paying a premium to do it.
