Welcome to this beautifully remodeled single-story pool home—a rare find—set on a private, oversized lot in one of Mission Viejo’s most desirable neighborhoods. Just a short walk to a nearby school and park, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and convenience. Step inside to an open, light-filled floor plan featuring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood flooring, and a stacked-stone fireplace. Custom wood-framed windows and doors add a refined, high-end feel throughout. The remodeled kitchen is designed for daily living and entertaining, with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a large peninsula with bar seating. It flows into a spacious dining area filled with natural light and backyard views. A permitted, temperature-controlled glass sunroom expands the living space, ideal for year-round indoor-outdoor living. The primary suite offers rolling hill views, overlooks the pool, and features direct backyard access through a custom sliding door.

The two secondary bedrooms offer open views of the front lawn with no homes directly in front, providing added privacy and natural light. The backyard is designed for relaxation and entertaining, featuring a sparkling pool, mature landscaping with fruit trees, a covered outdoor lounge area—perfect for enjoying sunset views—and a secluded pergola. The layout is ideal for summer pool days and gatherings with family and friends. Additional features include a new roof, upgraded HVAC, tankless water heater, remodeled bathrooms, an extra-wide flagstone driveway with RV parking, and leased Tesla solar with low monthly cost. Close to shopping, malls, major retailers, and easy freeway access—while maintaining the privacy and feel of a peaceful, weekend-style retreat. Includes Lake Mission Viejo access. No HOA and no Mello-Roos. This rare private pool retreat offers a unique combination of comfort, privacy, and lifestyle—an opportunity that won’t last.
