Hidden Hills is one of Yorba Linda's most exclusive areas: custom-built homes on large lots high in the hills, with panoramic views of the mountains and the county below. It is the part of the city that most clearly lives up to the “Land of Gracious Living.”
What it's like
Quiet and private. Homes sit well apart, streets see little traffic, and at night it is dark and still. It suits buyers who want land and seclusion without leaving Orange County, and it is one of the few places in the county where you can keep horses at home.
Highlights
- Estate-sized lots and custom architecture, with no two homes alike
- Panoramic hill, mountain and city-light views
- Horse-friendly lots and access to the city's trail network
- Next to open space and Chino Hills State Park
Homes
Because the homes are custom, they vary enormously in age, style, size and condition. Lot usability matters as much as lot size: a flat, usable acre is worth far more than a steep one. Automated online estimates are especially unreliable here, since there are few truly comparable sales.
What to know before buying
- Wildfire exposure. Homes beside open space are in higher fire-risk zones. Check insurance availability and cost early in your search, before you fall in love with a house.
- Drive times. You trade convenience for privacy; shops and schools are a drive away.
- Horse zoning varies by lot. If you plan to keep horses, confirm what the specific property allows.
