Remarks

Tucked into one of the most desirable pockets of Rancho Santa Margarita, just steps from award-winning schools, this beautifully upgraded single-family home offers the kind of lifestyle buyers are searching for. The split-level design creates a unique and functional layout, with the main living space elevated to capture light, volume, and flow. Upstairs, you’re greeted by soaring vaulted ceilings with real custom shiplap detail complete with crown molding, giving the space a warm, modern character that immediately stands out. The kitchen has been upgraded with Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, newer cabinetry, and updated appliances, blending timeless design with everyday functionality. It opens seamlessly to the living area, making it perfect for both quiet nights at home and hosting friends. But where this home really shines is the indoor-outdoor experience. Just off the living room, bi-fold accordion doors completely open to a 10x20 deck with a gas hookup, creating a true extension of the living space and overlooking the backyard and pool below. Also on the upper level, you’ll find a meticulously upgraded laundry room and a spacious primary suite featuring a walk-in closet with custom organizers and a fully remodeled bathroom where no detail was overlooked.
