"premium street-side location".  Guess this will be the hot phrase for motorcourt homes that are not sandwiched between other motorcourt homes.

Street side is the worst location, you are the first target in a drive by.
 
There is no such thing as Drive-by in Irvine. It is always "self inflicted".

Very true.  Actually, you will be the only target in a drive by unless the car drives into the motorcourt area which would be a huge pain.  The driver would have to do a 3 point turn at the end of the motorcourt to leave!

This just got awkward if they have to do a Austin Powers at the end of the driveway :)

Why would you buy this for $998K ($428/ft) detached condo:http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/49-Scarlet-Bloom-92618/home/49872210

When you can buy this for $880K ($382/ft) single family residence:http://www.redfin.com/CA/Irvine/31-Pawprint-92618/home/49870128

The cheaper one also has more upgraded bathrooms.

I've seen the Scarlet Bloom floorplan.  Not a fan in general of 3 story houses.  It gets unbearably hot upstairs and you need to install a whole house fan  in order to keep it cool.

Off the subject, but running the whole home fan is expensive according to SoCal Edison. We received a ridiculous bill a few months ago and asked about it.  They claimed running a whole home fan 24/7 like the builder suggested will increase your bill by $50-100!

The whole home fan is the switch in the laundry room, right?

Wow, tiny lot size.
Click to expand...

zero lot line - i.e. doesn't include the front yard or driveway in the lot size

Clarification:

zero lot line is when the wall of the home runs along the line of the lot marker.
They can be detached

or attached

This does not mean that the front yard or driveway are not included in lot size calculations.
