The home

About 515 Traverse Drive

Location, Location, Location! Check out this thoughtfully remodeled home located in the hidden gem of a community of Del Cerro in the triangle created by the 405, 55 and 73 freeways. The stunning curb appeal is just the first indication you are about to enter a truly special home. Upon entering the privacy gate you are welcomed by a charming courtyard perfect for entertaining. This property was initially remodeled in 2005 down to the framing (electrical, plumbing, roof, HVAC, windows, etc.) with a refresh in 2021 (paint, flooring, water heater, refrigerator, counters and backsplash). The family room is open to the remodeled kitchen and dining area creating an open and spacious feel. Through the french doors you enter a fantastic backyard. 15’ tall bamboo creates a true sense of privacy along with being a stunning colorful backdrop. All grass has been replaced with artificial turf along with a concrete area for seating and the hot tub. A separately fenced off side yard creates the ideal dog run for your furry friends. Back inside you will find a reimagined floor plan from the 2005 initial remodel. A primary suite along with a secondary bedroom with attached bath complete with steam room. A 3rd main floor bedroom is currently being used as a home gym. The kitchen is ideal for the amateur home chef/entertainer. Upstairs is the final bedroom suite with 3rd bath which is currently being used as a home theater. This space has the potential to be a great Mother-in-law suite or bonus room. Located in the heart of it all and walking distance to South Coast Plaza, The Camp, The Lab and Segerstrom Center for Performing Art. Also, a quick drive to several of Orange County’s best beaches and 5 minutes to John Wayne Airport. It won't last long, so be certain to check it out soon.
