Property Description
Welcome home! This lovely, bright Villa Serena home (3BDR/2BA) is the most popular model in prestigious Gate 11 and boasts a flowing, functional, and open floorplan that affords privacy, natural lighting, and greenery soothing to the eyes throughout from each room. As you enter through the front gate, you will see a beautiful brick courtyard tastefully landscaped with diverse flowers and mature plants. The back of the home has a spacious patio, accessed through sliding doors from the living, dining, and master bedrooms. What a perfect outdoor environment to entertain family and friends or enjoy your morning coffee! The kitchen window overlooks the front courtyard and thus gets natural light inside while providing you with a peaceful view of the neighborhood outside. The kitchen boasts upgraded quartz countertops, an updated stainless steel range hood, intricate backsplash, elegant off-white cabinetry, newer recessed lighting and appliances. The living room is expansive with a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookcase. The master bedroom is larger than most others with its expanded addition, including a large private sitting area; large walk-in closet; an-suite bathroom with double sinks; large walk-in shower; and its location maximizes peace and quiet. The second bedroom has new window treatments, large mirrored sliding doors with closet space and convenient proximity to the second bathroom. The third bedroom has been converted into an office that looks out to the natural, green, landscaped courtyard and also has direct access to the laundry room and garage. With a central air/heating system, this lovely home also has double-paned windows/sliding doors, skylights, smooth ceilings, and a separate laundry room with washer/dryer. In 2023, the home was repainted throughout and luxury, modern, waterproof vinyl flooring was installed in most of the home. Located in the gated community of Laguna Woods Village—the premier, age 55+ active community in Orange County—this home is conveniently located with proximity to the Irvine Spectrum, Laguna Beach among other towns and offers many wonderful amenities such as a 27-hole golf course, tennis courts, separate pickleball courts, 5 swimming pools, 3 fitness centers, RV storage, garden center, and 7 clubhouses, including Clubhouse 4 that offers amazing classes in art, ceramics, wood shop, jewelry-making, and sewing, and much more. This updated, well-appointed, and well-maintained home won’t last long!
