The home
About 22 Vernal Spring
Reimagined, redesigned, and meticulously crafted, this Sycamore Plan 3 with six bedrooms and seven full bathrooms has been completely transformed into a bespoke sanctuary in a labor of love that elevates it far beyond the ordinary. Throughout the home, designer-appointed spaces showcase an extraordinary eye for detail, steel framed doors and windows, handcrafted tile work, warm oak flooring, and rich materiality weave a narrative of understated luxury. From the moment you enter through the arched wooden doorway, you are enveloped in a world of curated beauty, where reworked spaces enhance livability and flow, creating a sense of spaciousness while preserving intimacy in every room. At the heart of it all, the showpiece kitchen stuns with its custom millwork, marble countertops, and a statement-making La Cornue range—a dream for culinary enthusiasts and design lovers alike. An exceptionally well-organized pantry, complete with a built-in refrigerator, coffee station, and ample shelving—adds both convenience and luxury. Disappearing doors blend the boundary between indoors and out, allowing for seamless entertaining that spills onto the resort-like backyard. Here, a sun-drenched pool, covered loggia with fireplace, a fully equipped barbecue station and putting green invite long afternoons spent under the sky. Privately positioned, the primary suite is a true retreat. A cozy fireplace, soft, neutral textures and a romantic balcony create a serene atmosphere. The spa-inspired primary bath is nothing short of breathtaking, a freestanding soaking tub, framed by floor-to-ceiling drapes, handcrafted tiles, glass encased shower and dual vanities complete the experience. The expansive boutique-style closet features integrated lighting, custom shelving, and a built-in coffee bar and beverage fridge, elevating everyday luxury. Each of the home’s additional bedrooms and bathrooms are an experience of their own (two of which share the second of level with the master) - each with its own unique identity and a cohesive sense of warmth. A sophisticated office/lounge with rich dark cabinetry, a built-in bar, and dramatic lighting offers the perfect retreat for work or relaxation. Also, of notable mention are the two casitas, oversized laundry room and 4-car garage. Shady Canyon amenities include two guard gates, pickleball and tennis, pool and spa, barbecue area and recreation room.

In cities, the fire zone line follows the State Fire Marshal's 2025 map; each city adopts its own map and may add areas. These lines are not a Natural Hazard Disclosure.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.18% (week of Nov 5, 2026); your rate will differ. A loan this size is typically a jumbo loan, which prices differently. Tax and insurance are modelled, not billed amounts; tax uses a typical Irvine rate, excluding Mello-Roos. Verify all figures.
