North Tustin: Top Property Picks

I’ve long said that if I could ever afford it, I’d want to live in North Tustin.  While you’ve got the luxury up the hill, you’ve also got the “keeping it real” folks farther down.  Just take a long drive up Newport Ave/Newport Blvd and you’ll begin to feel like you’re going into a whole other part of the state, or out of state, for that matter.  Horses and animals, large lots, real history… all things the recently developed areas of OC are missing.

Anyway, as I dream about moving there, here are some places that caught my eye.  They all have at least four bedrooms and meet my expectations of a great North Tustin property… and are at a great price.
