The home
About 26471 Via Cuervo
PRICE IMPROVEMENT — An exceptional opportunity to own a beautifully reimagined Mission Viejo residence. Extensively renovated from the inside out in 2025, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home brings together modern design, quality craftsmanship, and effortless everyday living. Carefully selected finishes, substantial upgrades, and thoughtful attention to detail extend well beyond what you see.
Step inside to bright, open living spaces filled with natural light from brand-new windows. At the heart of the home, the designer kitchen features custom white oak cabinetry, high-end appliances, a microwave drawer, and beautifully selected finishes, all seamlessly connected to the dining and living areas for easy entertaining and everyday life.
Both bathrooms have been completely remodeled with custom wall-to-wall tilework and elevated designer finishes. The primary bath creates a private retreat with dual shower heads and a bidet toilet, while custom built-in closet systems throughout the home add exceptional organization and functionality.
Just as impressive are the improvements behind the walls. New PEX plumbing, new windows, and extensive system upgrades were completed as part of the 2025 renovation, adding the peace of mind that comes with a truly turnkey home.
Outside, the property has been thoughtfully designed for privacy, ease, and low-maintenance California living. Refreshed landscaping, new vinyl fencing, a new rear privacy fence, and artificial turf create a comfortable outdoor setting for relaxing and entertaining. The property also enjoys views toward Saddleback Mountain and the Irvine city lights, adding another dimension to the home's surroundings.
The finished and insulated garage offers even more usable space, whether for vehicles, storage, a home gym, hobbies, or a creative workspace.
More than a cosmetic remodel, this is a home that has been thoughtfully renewed, carefully upgraded, and designed to be enjoyed from day one—offering sophisticated finishes, modern comfort, privacy, and turnkey living in the heart of Mission Viejo.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.03% (week of Sep 24, 2026); your rate will differ. A loan this size is typically a jumbo loan, which prices differently. Tax and insurance are modelled, not billed amounts; tax uses a typical Mission Viejo rate, excluding Mello-Roos. Verify all figures. Full assumptions and disclosures.
