Northwood Pool Home with Park-Access Backyard

Unprecedented opportunity in the highly sought-after Northwood community of Irvine. Built by Ayres in the Racquet Club tract — a 271-home enclave of single-family residences with no homeowners association — this four-bedroom, three-bath home built in 1970 offers approximately 2,250 square feet of living space on a generous 5,533-square-foot lot, with a private pool, spacious front and back yards, and a two-car garage.

One of the property's most distinctive features is its direct backyard access to the neighborhood park, allowing you to step outside and enjoy the surrounding community without crossing a street. Brywood Elementary and Sierra Vista Middle School are nearby, with Northwood High School serving the area.

The north-facing front and south-facing backyard create an inviting setting with abundant natural light and a sunny pool area well suited for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying Southern California's indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Inside, the home features generously sized bedrooms, an oversized primary suite, formal dining area, a vaulted wood ceiling in the living room, and a layout offering plenty of possibilities for a buyer to personalize and create something truly their own.

A gated front entry, mature surroundings, limited direct street visibility into the home, and a quiet residential setting add to the sense of privacy. The property is also conveniently located near shopping, dining, parks, schools, and major transportation routes. With no HOA and no Mello-Roos, this is a rare opportunity to reimagine a Northwood home with a pool, generous outdoor space, and a location that offers something increasingly difficult to duplicate: direct access to the neighborhood lifestyle right from your own backyard.
