About the property

Rare Corner 1BR + 1.5BA at Skyline OC — Lake & City Views

Residence N403 at Skyline OC is one of the building’s most distinctive homes — a corner unit with expansive southeast exposure, private patio, and the rare convenience of a guest half-bath. At approximately 1,227 square feet this thoughtfully configured one‑bedroom residence offers proportions more typically found in higher-end two-bedroom plans: a generous open living and dining area that flows to your patio overlooking the community lake, plus a spacious primary suite with an en-suite bath.

Finishes include continuous wood flooring in the living, dining and kitchen, and a well-appointed kitchen equipped with quality appliances (dishwasher, gas range, electric oven, microwave, refrigerator and built-ins). Large windows along two exposures bring sweeping views of the lake and cityscape while the corner siting provides separation from adjacent units. Security features at the building — card/code access, an automatic gate and 24-hour security — add privacy and peace of mind.

What truly sets N403 apart is the layout: the only residence of its kind in the project featuring a half-bath for guests, making hosting effortless without sacrificing bedroom privacy. The private patio is perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation while enjoying water views. With Skyline OC’s immediate proximity to South Coast Plaza, Segerstrom Center for the Arts, and a concentration of restaurants and services, you’ll find city amenities right outside your door while enjoying a resort-like residential setting.

This is a rare opportunity for buyers who want a single-bedroom with a larger footprint, better entertaining flow, and a coveted lake view. Schedule a showing to walk the plan and confirm assigned parking and HOA details — this unique floorplan moves quickly in South Coast Metro.

Editorial market perspective

South Coast Metro (Santa Ana / Costa Mesa border) remains one of Orange County’s most demand-stable micro‑markets. Buyers continue to prize walkable access to South Coast Plaza, performing arts, and nearby employment centers, which keeps inventory low for well-positioned condos. Median condo prices in the immediate area have been resilient — many boutique/resort-style buildings report faster absorption and limited supply. For this property, the market favors buyers who can move quickly with HOA verification in hand; well-marketed, turnkey units are receiving multiple offers in tighter inventory cycles. Expect a balanced-to-strong seller environment for distinctive units like N403, though macro rate movement can influence buyer pools.
