Welcome to this elegant 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home offering approximately 4,307 square feet of beautifully designed living space, set on a quiet cul-de-sac just steps from award-winning schools. With tasteful upgrades, an expansive floor plan, and access to some of Rancho Santa Margarita’s best amenities, this home delivers the space, comfort, and lifestyle buyers are looking for. From the moment you enter, the home makes a refined first impression with a grand entry that opens into a spacious formal living room and flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. Thoughtful details like crown molding throughout, recessed lighting, plantation shutters, and elevated baseboards add a polished feel. The heart of the home is the open kitchen, designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Complete with stainless steel appliances, double ovens, a center island, and opens directly to the family room, creating the perfect gathering space for holidays, dinner parties, or casual nights at home. The main level also offers a desirable guest bathroom, a dedicated laundry room, and a main-floor bedroom with its own upgraded ensuite bathroom—ideal for guests, or extended family. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a massive open loft that provides endless flexibility. Use it as a media room, game room, playroom, or second family room. One secondary bedroom features its own private upgraded ensuite bathroom with subway tile and upgraded vanity, while the other two secondary bedrooms share a beautifully upgraded bathroom with dual sinks and a subway-tiled shower. The expansive primary suite feels like a true retreat, complete with a cozy fireplace, generous sitting area, walk-in closets, and upgraded vanities. It is spacious, private, and designed to be the place you actually look forward to escaping to at the end of the day. For added comfort and peace of mind, the home has been completely repiped, includes a whole house fan to help cool the home efficiently, and features an owned 28-panel solar system to help reduce electricity costs. That is the kind of upgrade buyers love because it works quietly in the background while saving money. Located in one of Rancho Santa Margarita’s most convenient and desirable settings, this home also includes access to resort-style community amenities, including 4 Olympic-sized swimming pools, the RSM Beach Club swim lagoon, sport courts, parks, trails, and more.
