About 23802 Palmek

Welcome to this extensively remodeled single-level home, ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in Lake Forest on an expansive 10,000+ sq. ft. lot. Following the sellers' purchase of the home, a comprehensive remodel was completed in 2024 with permits, transforming the property with quality craftsmanship and modern finishes throughout. Carefully designed with long-term enjoyment in mind, no detail was overlooked. Major improvements include brand new plumbing, electrical, sewer line, HVAC system, windows, and PAID solar.

Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan features custom-tiled bathrooms, recessed LED lighting, Ethernet wiring, a GE Café induction double-oven range, and a semi-finished garage with an insulated garage door and two Tesla wall chargers.

The expansive backyard is equally impressive, offering raised garden beds, a beautifully curated rose garden, numerous mature fruit trees, and generous space for outdoor living, entertaining, or gardening. The oversized lot also presents excellent potential for future improvements, including an ADU, pool, or other outdoor enhancements (subject to buyer verification and applicable approvals).

Lovingly renovated with the intention of creating a long-term home, this exceptional property is now ready for its next chapter. Combining extensive permitted improvements, energy-efficient features, and a spacious lot in a desirable Lake Forest location, this move-in-ready home offers a rare opportunity to make it your own.

Check the official maps and the seller's disclosures before you rely on them.
