We are pleased to introduce you to an extraordinary development venture spearheaded by WMC, LLC Partners: the Master -Planned Residential Community on Victoria Place in the heart of Costa Mesa, California. This project is set to rejuvenate approximately 1.78 acres of land currently zoned C2, providing the city with a new sustainable and upscale development that aligns seamlessly with the city's progressive housing objectives. These residences will epitomize modern luxury - embracing contemporary aesthetics and energy efficiency and including state -of -the - art appliances and smart -home integrations - all ensuring a harmonious blend of comfort and technology.

All units also include two -car enclosed garages with direct unit access, and there are numerous guest spaces distributed around the entire property.
