The home

About 24221 Ankerton

An original Lake Forest home with a completely remodeled interior and exterior. No expense was spared in 2020 when local interior designer, Makkan Design, turned an old home into a modern, timeless ranch. A house built to last and ready to host many family events. New modern amenities include water softener, plumbing, Tesla charger, wi-fi garage door, solar, and Nest thermostat. As you walk in, you'll immediately notice the 7' island with double waterfall quartz countertops and wide LVP floors. A tiled pearl backsplash covers the entire wall above the stove only to be broken up by a pot filler and a custom range hood that matches the decor perfectly. Custom glass shelves hand made in the USA hang on the center wall of the kitchen to give you an all around feel of luxury. Solid wood Innocraft cabinets created for function and used for all your cooking/storage needs. An appliance garage hiding your coffee, microwave, and toaster. An open style living room with an original wood burning fireplace is brought back to life with modern Cle tile that creates a centerpiece. Tons of natural light shine through the 16' sliding glass doors which lead you straight to the dream backyard. Black out curtains for when you want to watch a movie or take a nap. Beautiful hydrangea wallpaper in the hall bath surrounded by subway tiles and matching tile floors. A large tub with shower hose for elegance and extra cleaning. Each bedroom is equipped with custom closets and sliding doors for full access. Primary bath adorned with marble flooring and shower wall. Full glass door with no step for seamless access and tranquility. All finishings are Kohler with a lifetime warranty and all rooms include black out roman shades for sleeping in. The corner lot provides ample space for front and backyard activities. A full BBQ kitchen and firepit connected to gas lines, no propane needed! Pergola for shade and outdoor dining.

Lastly, a chicken coop currently home to six hens providing fresh eggs every morning. This modern city/farm home boasts two avocado trees, nectarine, mango, orange, Mexican lime, Meyer lemon, and a peach tree! There's plenty of space for you to add an ADU or a pool and keep the large yards intact. The mature shade trees provide enough shade during the hot summer days so you can still enjoy outdoor living. A unique gem in an amazing location just 10 minutes from Laguna Beach. You won't have to do anything to this house, and it will still feel new for years to come!
