Live Above It All with Panoramic Views in South OC!

Welcome to 21672 High Country Drive—a rare opportunity to own a peaceful, view-rich sanctuary in the coveted hills of Newcrest Estates in Robinson Ranch. Perfectly situated on a private, pool-sized lot with no rear neighbors, this home offers the serenity of sunset views, Saddleback Mountain backdrops, and the feeling of living “above it all.”

Step inside to a light-filled 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home spanning 2,500 sq ft of elevated living. All bedrooms are tucked upstairs, offering separation from the main living spaces and the ability to retreat in quiet comfort. Downstairs, the open-concept layout flows beautifully for entertaining, with windows that frame hillside and canyon views and invite the outdoors in.

The backyard is a blank canvas ready for your vision—build your dream pool, outdoor kitchen, or peaceful garden sanctuary. With 7,000 sq ft of land, the possibilities are endless. Best of all? No rear homes, 1 home to one side, no distractions—just you, the view, and the privacy you’ve been craving.

At just $586 per square foot, this home offers one of the best values in South Orange County when compared to nearby view properties in Dove Canyon, Rancho Cielo, and Trabuco Highlands—many of which sell for $700–$800+ per square foot without the same tranquil setting or privacy.

This is your chance to own in one of South OC’s most desirable low-turnover communities, known for its top-rated Saddleback Valley schools, family-friendly parks, scenic hiking and biking trails, and access to the outdoors while still being minutes from dining, shopping, and toll roads. Plus, enjoy NO Mello-Roos and low HOA dues—a rare and valuable combination.

Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee with a sunrise view or unwinding at dusk as the hills turn gold, this home delivers a lifestyle of beauty, peace, and long-term value.

Don’t miss your chance to capture a view property with this much upside in a low-inventory market. Schedule your private showing today—homes like this in Robinson Ranch rarely come available. Enjoy access to numerous community amenities, including parks, tot lots, a gated Olympic size pool, spa, sport courts, sports field, and scenic biking and hiking trails. Close to top-rated Schools, Shopping, Airport, Beaches, RSM Lake, & Local Dining. No Mello Roos!
