As background, I tried registering my daughter for 2nd grade for next year at Stone Creek. She currently is at a private school in NB. I didn't think we'd be renting so long- but now the private school doesn't go to 2nd grade and I am going to have to put her in the public school. (Nothing...

What a great house. Love the kitchen! Congratulations!

Sorry- yes I meant Foothill.

What are the differences between Cowan Heights and Lemon Heights? A street divider- is one area "better" than the other? Tesoro HS is supposed to be good- but about the elementary and middle schools? Can anyone tell me from personal experience? And looking at that thread with all the...

Thanks sell4u!

Sell4u, Do you know the story on 6 Ferrand? Did they receive multiple offers that they are raising their price $100K? Thanks! <a href="http://www.redfin.com/CA/Newport-Coast/6-Ferrand-92657/home/5810512">6 Ferrand</a>

I third Royal Khyber.

I just had to vent a little. My family and I went to Newport Coast looking at some of the open homes in Newport Ridge. You would have thought it was 2005. There was such a frenzy at the open houses. Seriously- we were shocked at the number of people going through the homes. Carry on...

Well- I just got turned away when trying to register my daughter at Stone Creek Elementary for next year for when she enters 2nd grade. So, I get there and there is a rather long line. I wait and wait. To which the lady then tells everyone that those registering for next year should make...

I saw the house a couple of months ago. They did take the option to expand one of the kids' bedrooms into a private bath. However, the bedroom already had a jack-and-jill bath. So, the person has an option to use 2 bathrooms connecting the room. They should have made the option to make that...

I second Kayochan's suggestion. My kids go to Newport Montessori and we love it. The kids are doing so well there both academically and socially. The new school in Irvine will open in the fall.

ummm- a tortilla de patatas. do you make croquetas as well? i totally love those. i used to make them years back, but haven't done so in a while!

I would like to know which neighborhood you are talking about- if you don't mind sharing. I have never heard of rules for when it is appropriate to put up Christmas lights! I am sorry you are having to deal with this guy.

I wish I could direct you to a good tapas place- but I don't know any. (But there are lots in Chicago!) I lived in Spain for almost 2 years as well (Madrid and Sevilla). My sister actually married a gallego- from Sada- near La Coruna. Galicia is so gorgeous and lush!

FWIW- We rent a SFR in Woodbridge's North Lake location. My kids are 4 and 6. There are VERY few younger kids in the neighborhood and that's one of the reasons why I most likely won't buy here. I love the location, but the floorplans are outdated and the houses are aging. As an...

sell4u- Do you know what 16 Bandol sold for? I don't see it on the housing websites anymore. Thanks!

Panda- Perhaps your price could be lowered, but it is winter there, and being from Chicago- I know noone seems to buy when it's winter. I have noticed after living here 3 years and seeing IPO's list of homes going into escrow that the SoCAL market remains more active in winter months than...

sell4u Do you know the story behind 16 Bandol? http://www.redfin.com/CA/Newport-Coast/16-Bandol-92657/home/5810651 I saw the house with my husband- and I can't believe these people bought at over $2 million for this house- and it has awful tile throughout the first level. The yard/pool...

I think Dr. Stenbeck (sp?) isn't there anymore. There was also a male doctor there, but I don't see him listed on the website

We go to Irvine Pediatrics as well. I also think Dr. Winkler is one of the better doctors there- although I think in general I am not wildly enthusiastic about the practice (and I don't have many options with our healthcare so I can't change practices).
