Roger
and Kaarina De Coster have recently completed building a beautiful
custom home in Covenant Hills to serve as their almost-empty nest as
their son begins his college career. However, since he’s attending UCI,
his visits home with friends are sure to be frequent. With that reality
in mind, the De Costers are currently fine-tuning their home to be

neighborhood is one that Kaarina found truly welcoming. She loves hiking
the local trails, many which feature views to the ocean.
