House Cleaning in Northwood.
Ready on Arrival

Northwood holds a unique distinction among Irvine’s neighborhoods: it is the only community in the city that was not developed by the Irvine Company and is not fully governed by an HOA. Home to 23,678 residents across 7,915 households, Northwood was built primarily from the 1970s through the 1990s in a Modern Traditional style with Spanish architectural influences. The result is a neighborhood with larger lots, more individuality, and a character rooted in its pre-master-plan origins.

Traces of Northwood’s agricultural past remain in the towering eucalyptus windrows that line many streets — remnants of the farming era that once defined this part of Irvine. Combined with views of the Santa Ana Mountains to the east and the historic Northwood Loop road that connects the community, these features give Northwood a sense of place that newer developments rarely replicate.

Families are drawn to Northwood for its top-rated schools, particularly Northwood High School, which ranks #194 nationally. The neighborhood offers 17 parks spread across its footprint, and later additions like gated Northwood Pointe and Arbor Crest brought upscale homes into the mix during the 1990s, pushing the community’s price range from $1.4 million to over $3 million.

Art’s Cleaning Services understands that Northwood’s housing stock spans three decades and multiple architectural styles. From original 1970s homes with mature landscaping and older mechanical systems to the refined interiors of Northwood Pointe’s gated estates, our teams adapt their approach to match each home’s age, materials, and layout.
