IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 23, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- California Pacific Homes’ Lantana in Cypress Village continues to attract a diversity of homebuyers with modern townhome designs and a dynamic setting that brings the best of Irvine close to home. Newly married couple, David and Monalyn Salvador, are two such homebuyers who “fell in love with the functional, yet beautiful designs” at Lantana. “This is the first home we’ve purchased together and wanted it to fit our lifestyle,” the couple said. They chose Lantana’s spacious, three-story Residence 2.

“Family and friends are constantly visiting for long weekends and our floorplan’s private first-floor bedroom with en-suite bath is a great guest feature.” The second floor’s open layout is another design element they adore, citing how it makes “entertaining simple” and is the perfect area to enjoy “comfortable evenings relaxing after work.” The flowing space includes living and dining areas, plus a gourmet kitchen with a large center island, Bosch® stainless steel appliances, Pental Quartz countertops and hand-picked upgrades. “David loves to cook,” says Monalyn. “So, we opted for the upgraded hood.” They also chose upgraded backsplashes and cabinets for the kitchen and bathrooms, plus upgraded flooring throughout their home. Just off the kitchen is a shaded patio — an inviting outdoor space that rounds out the second-floor design.  The top level houses the spacious master bedroom with private deck, as well as a large secondary bedroom that will be an asset to the couple, especially with “the possibility of children” in their future.  

The prime Cypress Village setting reinforced their decision to purchase at Lantana, where nearby freeways, top-rated Irvine schools and easy work commutes brought convenience and comfort to their daily lives. They also value the extraordinary amenities both within Cypress Village and around the area, including community parks, pools, a hot tub and “grills for family barbecues,” as well as beautiful trails and a location that allows the couple to “walk across the street to the farmer’s market” and enjoy the numerous perks of Irvine living.

In regards to the homebuying process, David and Monalyn were delighted by their experience with California Pacific Homes. “We had a great rapport with our sales agents, Nicole and Angie — they are the best!” The couple found the team to be genuine, knowledgeable and extremely helpful as they guided them through every step.
