The parcel is located in an unincorporated area of Orange County, near Mission Viejo and the Saddleback Valley, where the average price of homes is $650,000. Approval is expected for 90 to 100 homes on lots ranging from one to ten acres. The equestrian portion of the property will be preserved, with room for 100 to 200 horses.
