Property Description

Set on a single-loaded street with scenic canyon views from the front, this Rancho Santa Margarita home offers the kind of setting that’s hard to find that's peaceful and serene. Inside, the layout is both practical and inviting. With 3 bedrooms plus a spacious loft/bonus, there’s plenty of flexibility for how you live—whether that’s a home office, media space, or an easy option for a 4th bedroom down the road. The home has been thoughtfully refreshed to give it that clean, move-in-ready feel. Downstairs features brand-new luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh interior paint throughout, creating a bright and modern foundation, along with a kitchen complete with brand new stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, you’ll find all new carpet, two generously sized secondary bedrooms, and a well-positioned central loft that ties the upper level together. The primary suite offers the space and comfort you’re looking for, making it an easy place to unwind at the end of the day. Beyond the home itself, the lifestyle here is a major draw. With just one low HOA, you’ll have access to Rancho Santa Margarita’s standout amenities—like the Beach Club swim lagoon, four Olympic-sized pools, parks, BBQ areas, and sports courts. Pair that with a low tax rate and no Mello Roos, and you’ve got a location that makes just as much sense financially as it does for everyday living.
