The home

About 953 Avenida Carmel Q

Desirable corner unit with NO STAIRS to access and NO NEIGHBORS ABOVE OR BELOW with only one common wall! Located near Gate 1, welcome to this beautifully remodeled move-in- ready Casa Linda floor plan. This home offers exceptional privacy creating a quiet, single-family–home feel. Access to the unit is conveniently located at street level via an easy-access ramp, allowing no-step entry with no stairs required.

The home features 2 spacious bedrooms and 1.75 bathrooms and has been thoughtfully upgraded throughout. Brand-new light wood luxury vinyl flooring flows seamlessly through the entire home, complemented by fresh interior paint in a soft, neutral Dove White and recessed lighting throughout, creating a bright, clean, and inviting atmosphere.

The expansive living room opens effortlessly to the kitchen, enhancing both functionality and flow. The fully remodeled kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring gorgeous cabinetry, stone countertops, and an oversized peninsula that provides generous prep space, storage, and a perfect gathering area.

Both bathrooms have been tastefully upgraded with cohesive, modern finishes, including a custom tiled walk-in shower in the primary bathroom and a beautifully coordinated secondary full bathroom. Each bedroom offers custom shelving and storage, maximizing both organization and comfort.

Additional highlights include an in-unit stackable washer and dryer and a charming enclosed patio adorned with slate tile and a built-in planter, ideal for relaxing or enjoying indoor-outdoor living.

One of the most standout features of this home is its prime location near the community gates, offering easy access while maintaining privacy. The patio and bedroom windows face mature trees and lush shrubbery—not neighboring homes— providing a peaceful, private setting with a rare single-family–home feel.

Amenities include multiple swimming pools and spas, state-of-the-art fitness centers, tennis and pickleball courts, lawn bowling, shuffleboard, and scenic walking paths. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate two professionally maintained golf courses.

The community also offers seven clubhouses, an 814-seat performing arts center, arts and crafts studios, a library, computer learning center, and an equestrian center. With 200+ social clubs and interest groups, plus convenient community transportation, Laguna Woods Village provides an active, engaging, and connected lifestyle tailored for vibrant senior living.
