Amazing and highly upgraded home in the coveted Tether Moon tract of Ladera Ranch. This 3 bed, 2.5 bath home has been thoughtfully updated throughout, offering a warm and inviting blend of comfort, style, and effortless California living. Upon entry, you're welcomed into a bright, open living space with light neutral walls and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen impresses with quartz countertops and a generous eat-in dining area that flows seamlessly into the family room — the perfect everyday hub for living and entertaining. The family room features a raised fireplace and custom built-in, while designer lighting and neutral LVP flooring carry throughout the first floor, along with a convenient powder room. Upstairs, a versatile bonus loft with a custom entertainment center, built-in shelving, and a cozy reading nook adds incredible flexibility to the floorplan. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a hand-crafted barn door, dual sinks, separate bath, step-in shower, and a beautifully upgraded custom built-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms — each with their own upgraded custom built-in closets — share a well-appointed bathroom with dual sinks. The 2-car garage is truly a showstopper — featuring epoxy floors, a fully built-out space with custom cabinets, a hook system, refrigerator and wine fridge included, a designer garage door with brand new motor, and a private office complete with a versatile stand-up desk and built-ins. A space this dialed in is rare. Out back, a fully private backyard oasis awaits, surrounded by mature, full-grown trees that create a true sense of seclusion, complete with a spa, gas fireplace, built-in BBQ, stainless steel refrigerator, high-end turf, tiled living space, and professionally designed lighting and softscape. Nestled near the foot of a cul-de-sac, you're just a short walk from Ladera Ranch's award-winning schools, community pools, pickleball and tennis courts, basketball courts, walking paths, and hiking trails. 2024 Carrier A/C and furnace, fully re-piped, and move-in ready.
