About Rancho Santa Margarita

Rancho Santa Margarita Homes for Sale

Incorporated in 2000, Rancho Santa Margarita was developed with a walkability-first philosophy that remains evident throughout the city today. Lake Santa Margarita is the community's centerpiece, offering residents a private beach, fishing, and recreational access an amenity that is genuinely rare in Southern California at the community level. Surrounding the lake are dozens of neighborhood parks, community pools maintained by the homeowners association, and an extensive network of hiking and biking trails that connect neighborhoods throughout the hills.

The city borders Mission Viejo, Trabuco Canyon, and Coto de Caza, with easy access to the 241 toll road and the Foothill corridor. The combination of safety, trails, lake access, and family-oriented neighborhood design has made RSM a consistent draw for buyers who want the feel of a planned community without the premium pricing of coastal cities.

Rancho Santa Margarita Neighborhoods

RSM has a variety of neighborhoods to match different budgets and lifestyles. Dove Canyon is a gated community with a golf course and hillside homes that tend toward larger lot sizes and executive-level finishes. Robinson Ranch offers well-maintained single-family homes in a hillside setting with views in some locations. Rancho Cielo is a guard-gated enclave with larger homes and a quieter, more private setting. Neighborhoods surrounding Lago Santa Margarita give residents direct access to the lake, beach club, and tennis facilities that define the RSM lifestyle.

Come and see this beautiful, upgraded 4-bedroom home adjacent to a well-kept, green golf course that backs up to the 8th Fairway of Tijeras Golf Club. The landscaped front yard is shaded with two tall trees and freshly planted flowers that invite you to your new home. As you approach, you will see a 3-car garage, and to the right is the path to the front door entrance. Once inside, you'll notice the high cathedral ceiling, and all the floors have been replaced with new wood-type plank flooring. The entire interior of the home has been freshly painted, and there is a newer HVAC system. Head straight to the back of the home and go outside to your private patio and backyard overlooking the golf course. Coming back inside, you'll see the kitchen with granite countertops and an entertainment room with a fireplace. As you make your way to the garage, you'll see a dedicated laundry room, a garage entrance, and a bathroom for all your guests. There is a pass-through back to the living room, and to the right, you will make your way up the stairs to the bedrooms. But first, before seeing all the spacious rooms, you'll want to make plans for the use of a very large loft that has been completely enclosed and can be used for just about anything: office, game room, extra bedroom, TV room, anything you choose. There will be plenty of room to share. All the rooms have new flooring, but best of all is the main bedroom with its own ensuite, oversized bathtub, and double sink. There is a private restroom separate from the ensuite and a large walk-in closet to hang all your clothes. But before you leave, walk to the end of the main bedroom and loft room window and see the golf course and foothills. The loft has been fully converted to an enclosed dedicated room. Make sure to consider this 4-bedroom house before the end of summer and the beginning of school when you are looking for a great place to call home.
