The home
About 3023 Royce Lane
First time this Halecrest family home has been on the market in 53 years; now it’s perfectly turn-key and ready for the next chapter.
Completely transformed within the last year, this inviting and beautifully updated home blends warmth, comfort, and thoughtful modern design in one of Costa Mesa’s most sought-after neighborhoods. Nearly every surface and system has been carefully improved, creating a home that feels fresh, stylish, and effortlessly livable from the moment you walk through the door.
The light-filled interior offers an open and comfortable layout that lives larger than its footprint, while the redesigned spaces create an ideal balance between everyday functionality and easy entertaining. Extensive improvements and carefully selected finishes throughout give the home the feel of a far more expensive property, yet without sacrificing the warmth and character that make Halecrest so special.
The kitchen and baths have been beautifully updated, the bedrooms are comfortable and welcoming, and the overall flow of the home creates the kind of inviting atmosphere that is increasingly difficult to find in today’s marketplace. Every detail was thoughtfully considered during the renovation, resulting in a home that is not simply remodeled—but genuinely move-in ready.
Outside, the Halecrest lifestyle continues: quiet streets, pride of ownership, and one of the most convenient locations in all of Orange County. The highly regarded Killybrooke Elementary and the private Halecrest Swim & Tennis Club are both just moments away, while beaches, shopping, dining, entertainment, and major transportation corridors are all incredibly close by.
A rare opportunity to own a beautifully transformed Halecrest home where the heavy lifting has already been done.
