Private pool and spa, remodeled primary bathroom, upgraded luxury vinyl plan floors, fresh paint, a main floor bedroom with a full bathroom, and a 3-car garage with room to spare! Welcome to this spacious, thoughtfully updated two-story home in Rancho Santa Margarita. Curb appeal starts with a warm stucco exterior, freshly painted, along with a tile roofline, an arched entryway, and mature palm trees framing the front of the home. Inside, the 3,443-square-foot layout spreads comfortably across two levels, with upgraded stairs finished in luxury vinyl plank, new carpet upstairs, and a versatile loft space that adds a flexible living or work area. A large kitchen island anchors the heart of the home, and the expansive primary suite comes complete with a remodeled bathroom and two closets. A private front balcony off the upstairs living space adds another relaxing outdoor retreat, while the private pool and spa out back make for easy at-home relaxation. Parking is no issue here, with an attached 3-car garage plus driveway space for more vehicles, and a solar system helps offset energy costs year-round. Beyond the home itself, the community adds to the appeal, sitting within Rancho Santa Margarita's Master HOA SAMLARC, one of the most amenity-rich HOAs in the area. Residents have access to community pools, clubhouses, Lago Santa Margarita lake with its beach club and lagoon, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball and volleyball courts, multiple parks and picnic shelters, amphitheaters, and a network of walking trails connecting it all. That same convenience extends into the surrounding city — Rancho Santa Margarita is a master-planned community known for its scenic beauty and small-town charm, with a walkable town center, easy access to shopping and dining, and quick freeway access via the 241 toll road for anyone commuting further into Orange County. Schools serving the area include Tijeras Creek Elementary, Las Flores Middle School, and Tesoro High School which are in the Capistrano Unified School District. Altogether, this is a well-updated home offering private outdoor space, thoughtful upgrades, and easy access to community amenities in one of Rancho Santa Margarita's most established neighborhoods.
