A 47-home guard-gated Crystal Cove enclave of detached single-family residences built by Richmond American Homes in the early 2000s.
Windward is a cohesive Richmond American Homes neighborhood within Crystal Cove. Its 47 detached residences follow a Santa Barbara and Mediterranean design language across Archipelago Drive, Scotia Sea, Tasman Sea, and the even-numbered addresses from 30 through 58 on Timor Sea.
Original homes generally span approximately 3,250 to 4,900 square feet. This guide combines durable neighborhood context with current listings, historical observations, and community-specific market intelligence.
Positioning
Understanding Windward
Windward’s 47 homes are organized across three recorded tracts and four streets, giving the enclave a clear builder, parcel, and street structure within The Irvine Company’s Crystal Cove master plan. Archipelago Drive contains 12 homes, Scotia Sea six, Tasman Sea 14, and Timor Sea 15.
Windward and Watermark meet along Timor Sea but are not interchangeable. Even-numbered addresses from 30 through 58 belong to Windward and Richmond American Homes; addresses from 2 through 24 belong to Watermark and Taylor Woodrow Homes. Addresses 26 and 28 do not exist, and Scotia Sea 1 through 11 is entirely Windward.

Architecture & Design
The Residential Character of Windward
Richmond American Homes built Windward in the early 2000s within The Irvine Company’s Crystal Cove master plan. Contemporaneous Pro Builder coverage credits Bassenian/Lagoni Architects with a Santa Barbara theme, consistent with the Mediterranean and Spanish design language seen in the neighborhood.
Richmond American offered four original floor plans: three two-story designs and one single-story plan. Original configurations generally provided four to five bedrooms and four to six bathrooms, with approximately 3,250 to 4,900 square feet.
Lots range from approximately 0.15 to 0.33 acres. Most homes remain near the original builder scale, while a number of properties have been substantially renovated or expanded; current improvements and recorded size should be evaluated property by property.
Homes & Layout Logic
Comparing Homes in Windward
Windward’s shared builder origin does not make its homes interchangeable. Elevation, orientation, views, lot size, privacy, original plan, condition, interior configuration, outdoor improvements, and remodel history can materially change how two properties live and should be compared.
Original builder plans provide useful context, but later additions mean some homes exceed the headline range. Expanded homes may be relevant comparables for similarly improved properties without redefining the neighborhood’s original scale.
Community-level market data is most useful when paired with property-specific review of lot position, view exposure, floor-plan function, renovation quality, and current disclosures.

How to read this
The numbers are most useful as a directional read, not a substitute for property-level judgment. In Newport Coast, condition, elevation, privacy, view exposure, floor plan, and micro-location can move value more than the headline community average.
