About 23522 Porter Circle
Welcome home to coastal Laguna Niguel living in this thoughtfully renovated Crown Valley Highlands home. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac with peaceful hill views, this single-story 2-bed, 2-bath residence has been transformed from the roof down with designer finishes throughout. Step inside to engineered white oak floors, smooth-finish walls, fresh paint, new baseboards and interior doors, and recessed lighting that create a bright, refined feel. A brand-new gas fireplace warms the living area, and a new kitchen island with built-in wine cooler offers the perfect spot to gather. The primary suite addition is a true retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath with dual vanity and high-end custom cabinetry, a private water closet with pocket door, a linen closet, and two skylights with remote-controlled shades, along with a generous walk-in closet with built-in shelving. A dramatic 12-foot Windsor multi-slide pocketing glass door opens the living space to the backyard, where a patio, grassy lawn, and lush tropical landscaping create a private outdoor escape. Peace of mind comes standard, with a 2025 installation of a new architectural shingle roof, 2024 heating and air conditioning with all-new vents, and updated electrical panel, and the furnace relocated to the attic to maximize interior space. The finished two-car garage, complete with drywall, recessed lighting, and added side door, laundry, and an EV charger, feels like a true extension of the home, ideal for a home office or gym. A new Dutch front door, exterior lighting, privacy hedges, and rose bushes complete the inviting curb appeal. Residents enjoy access to the community pool, courts, walkways, and playground, and the home is served by the highly regarded, Capistrano Unified School District. Nearby parks and hiking trails are close at hand, and Salt Creek Beach, Dana Point Harbor, and the best of the Orange County coastline are just minutes away.

These facts are for the listing's map point, which can sit off the lot. A zone line can also cross a lot, and agencies revise their maps. In cities, the fire zone line follows the State Fire Marshal's 2025 map; each city adopts its own map and may add areas. These lines are not a Natural Hazard Disclosure. Check the official maps and the seller's disclosures before you rely on them.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.40% (week of Oct 15, 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 Laguna Niguel rate, excluding Mello-Roos. Verify all figures. Full assumptions and disclosures.
