This is an amazing home in the desirable, high-demand Las Flores community of Rancho Santa Margarita. Built in 2000, it offers exactly 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, including one bedroom down (used by the seller as a home office) with a full bath down. There's a 3-car garage with a big driveway, and an EV charger on the external wall. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and an individual laundry room. This home offers ample space for families of all sizes. The home features particularly tasteful upgrades throughout: gorgeous stone flooring on the first level, beautiful granite countertops in the kitchen, exquisite shutters, and double pane windows. The high ceilings look luxurious and wide open. There's an individual dining room, family room, and living room. Both the backyard and front yard are unique and easy to maintain, and the backyard offers panoramic views of the city lights. The location offers excellent public and private schools for all grades — the elementary school is just across the street, and Santa Margarita Hill School and Tesoro High School are close by. Community amenities include parks, a pool, spa, hiking trails, and much more. The property is conveniently located for shopping, dining, and entertainment, and it's not too far from Dana Point Harbor and Laguna Beach. Las Flores is a safe, friendly community where you can enjoy events with neighbors, and it's convenient to the I-5 and toll road 241.
