Future Growth! This condo is just steps from the exciting MAJOR development that everyone is talking about – The Related California Bristol project. Beginning city construction in early 2026, the project will transform the former Metro Town Square site into a walkable urban village with retail, dining, grocery, hotel, offices, and over a dozen acres of parks, plazas, and green space—all within a 5-minute stroll…literally right down the street! This condo offers the best in future forward living.
Unlike surrounding communities that are subject to high land lease fees, St Albans HOA purchased the land in 1999, resulting in a symbolic $1 annual lease — yes, just $1 !!! This makes the home eligible for both conventional and FHA financing. HOA dues also cover water and trash, and the unit includes two parking spaces—one assigned/covered and one unassigned/uncovered.
St. Albans offers resort-style amenities including sparkling pools and spas, tennis courts, a gym, and beautifully landscaped grounds. Ideally located just minutes from South Coast Plaza, fine dining, world-class theaters, and major freeways—this is an incredible opportunity to own in a well-established community with exceptional upside potential.
