Melinda Heights, NO ROAD NOISE. PEACEFUL SETTING. 3 FULL Baths! Rancho Santa Margarita At Its Best! Review the attached supplements for the full list of upgrades & Watch the 3D tour to see it all come together before you even walk in the door. This is the ONE! A rare, expansive wrap-around private patio - your own outdoor sanctuary framed by a brick-and-stone planter wall, with a separate gated entrance to the backyard. Room to lounge, entertain, and unwind in complete serenity, with far more private outdoor living space than many in the community. — this home has been renovated top to bottom, and the numbers speak for themselves.

Every bathroom has been upgraded with sleek, low-flush, single-piece toilets to custom counters with molded sinks! Upstairs, two stunning primary suites deliver rare flexibility: the first with high ceilings, a closet with custom doors, a custom made shoe closet w/ separate spaces and a spa-like renovated walk-in shower that is a fully tiled European rain shower. Shower and Toilet are separated by a custom barn door. The primary bath also features custom double vanity, and smart mirrors. The second Primary features vaulted ceilings, walk-in closet, its own bath/shower. The upgrades don't stop there: New luxury lighting throughout, a newer HVAC system, an automatic sprinkler system, a fully installed garage EV charger, and a whole-home Vivint security system — cameras, sensors, and glass-break detection, equipment (paid for). The HOA has just repainted the exterior, repaved the roads, and replaced the garage doors — the whole community is looking sharp. Step outside your door and into SAMLARC living at its best: 13 parks, sport courts, hiking and biking trails, Saddleback Mountain views, and the beach club at Lake Rancho Santa Margarita.
