Overview
About Woodbury East
Woodbury East is the City of Irvine's own name for about 153 acres inside Planning Area 9, and the word East is doing real work in it: all 953 residential addresses here lie east of the Sand Canyon Avenue centerline while the body of Woodbury lies west, and the City records every one of them at 92618 rather than the 92620 Woodbury's own records carry. Sand Canyon Avenue runs along the western edge, Irvine Boulevard the north and Great Park Boulevard the southeast, and the Eastern Transportation Corridor runs straight through the middle with four ramp segments tying State Route 133 to Irvine Boulevard. That corridor is not a detail on the margin. By the City's own land-use codes, toll road parcels cover 50.0 of the 153.4 acres, public street another 30.7, condominium parcels 30.1 and the single apartment parcel 16.7, which is why 953 homes fit into a shape this size and why the housing reads as a compact band of streets rather than a grid.
Four private parks sit inside the boundary and no city park does: Palm Club Park at 3.45 acres, Iris Garden Park at 0.90, Jasmine Park at 0.67 and Rose Petal Garden Park at 0.62, all coded Private Park by the City, which in practice means association ground the association pays to keep. Every one of the 953 addresses falls inside the Woodbury East Master Association, managed by Keystone Pacific Property Management, with four sub-associations under it that each carry a different manager: Ivy Neighborhood under BHE Property Management, Esperanza Apts. under Irvine Apartment Communities, Monterey Neighborhood under Seabreeze Management and Santa Rosa at Woodbury East under Powerstone Property Management. The City records open on-street bikeways along Sand Canyon Avenue, Irvine Boulevard, Great Park Boulevard, Trabuco Road and Crossland, and the off-street Venta Spur crosses the community. No campus stands inside the line; the village feeds Irvine Unified through Woodbury Elementary, then Jeffrey Trail Middle and Portola High.

How Woodbury East was built
Woodbury East is the small eastern extension of Woodbury, and it stands on the same ground: the last flat land within the Irvine Ranch, the holding James Irvine and three partners bought in 1864 and built up to roughly 93,000 acres. The SWA Group, which planned the 1,400 acres of Woodbury for the Irvine Company, described this site as the final flat-land development the ranch had left. It was farmland until the 2000s.
The village next door set the pattern this one follows. Woodbury opened in 2004 and was named the best master-planned community in America by the National Association of Home Builders the following year, built around a thirty-acre commons, on a grid, with every home within a ten-minute walk of a park. Woodbury East was built after it and to the same logic at a smaller scale, a handful of neighborhoods around private parks and a recreation center.

Schools serving Woodbury East
Irvine Unified is the district, and for once the two independent records agree. Woodbury Elementary's own attendance record runs Woodbury Elementary to Jeffrey Trail Middle to Portola High under the district's 2026-27 attendance areas, and the city puts this community 99.79 percent inside its Woodbury planning area with every address point inside it carrying PA 9. Separately, Portola High's recorded assignment area is northeastern Irvine east of Sand Canyon Avenue, and all 953 homes here are east of that centerline, so the geographic rule points the same way as the feeder record. Two things still need confirming for a specific address. All three campuses stand outside this boundary, and Irvine Unified assigns by address rather than by village. And the district records a change ahead: beginning Fall 2028, ninth-graders residing in the Woodbury community are assigned to Irvine High rather than Portola High. No published source states whether Woodbury East, which the city draws as its own village polygon, counts as part of that community for the change, so a buyer with a child now in elementary school should put that question to the district before it matters.

FAQs
Common questions about Woodbury East
What does a home in Woodbury East sell for?
No median is published here, and the reason is worth understanding before you read one somewhere else. Woodbury East has no CRMLS area of its own; the export files these addresses under Woodbury. Searching it for the community's own eighteen streets returns 14 listings, every one confirmed inside the boundary by the city's address record, of which eight closed between 16 January and 15 July 2026, five stood active and one was pending. Eight closings is below the ten this site requires before it will call a median a market figure, so none is shown. A Woodbury median you find elsewhere is a figure for the wider village, computed across the whole area including these eight, so ask for the closed comps on these specific streets instead of accepting the village number.
What is actually built inside the boundary?
The city counts 953 residential addresses across eighteen streets, plus 17 non-residential ones. Esperanza carries 402 of them, Calypso 81, Hedge Bloom 69 and Peony 66, with the rest spread thin across the other fourteen streets. By parcel, 186 condominium parcels hold 551 of those addresses and one 16.74-acre apartment parcel holds the other 402. The city's apartment layer carries no record for that apartment parcel and its operator's page could not be read, so 402 counts addresses rather than dwellings and no unit total is published. The listings the export holds on these streets carry build years from 2006 through 2010, which is the only vintage evidence available and puts the whole community inside a five-year window.
Which schools serve Woodbury East?
Irvine Unified, running Woodbury Elementary to Jeffrey Trail Middle to Portola High on the district's recorded attendance material. Woodbury Elementary enrolls 1,095 and reports 75 percent meeting or exceeding standard in English and 70 percent in math; Jeffrey Trail enrolls 1,049 at 76 and 74 percent; Portola High enrolls 2,693 and reports a 94.6 percent graduation rate with 98 AP courses offered. Two independent records support that chain: Woodbury Elementary's page names Portola as its feeder high school, and Portola's own assignment area is recorded as northeastern Irvine east of Sand Canyon Avenue, which covers every home here. The piece to confirm is the year 2028 and after, because the district records that from Fall 2028 ninth-graders residing in the Woodbury community are assigned to Irvine High instead, and nothing read says whether this village counts as part of that community. All three campuses stand outside the boundary and the district assigns by address, so confirm a specific address with Irvine Unified.
How is this different from Woodbury?
Same planning area, opposite side of Sand Canyon Avenue, and a different association. The city draws Woodbury East as its own village polygon of about 153 acres against roughly 628 for Woodbury, and puts both inside Planning Area 9. Every residential address here is east of the Sand Canyon centerline while Woodbury's own centroid is west, and the city records every address here at 92618 while its Woodbury apartment records carry 92620. The associations are separate records as well: this ground is master ID 9.2, Woodbury East Master Assn., and it does not extend into Woodbury proper. Where the two stop being separate is in the market feed, which has no Woodbury East area and files these addresses under Woodbury, so a Woodbury sales figure is counting this ground rather than sitting beside it.
What else is on this land, and where are the parks?
Most of the acreage is not housing. Toll road parcels cover 50.0 of the 153.4 acres as the Eastern Transportation Corridor runs through the polygon with four ramps to Irvine Boulevard, public street covers another 30.7, and an Irvine Ranch Water District parcel covers 6.5. Four private parks sit inside the boundary and no city park does: Palm Club Park at 3.45 acres, Iris Garden Park at 0.90, Jasmine Park at 0.67 and Rose Petal Garden Park at 0.62. The city codes all four Private Park, which means association ground the owners here pay to maintain. The nearest city park on the record is Woodbury Community Park, 10.7 acres at 130 Sanctuary, outside this boundary in Woodbury. The city also records open on-street bikeways on Sand Canyon Avenue, Irvine Boulevard, Great Park Boulevard, Trabuco Road and Crossland, and an open off-street bikeway on Venta Spur crossing the community.
