Behind the gates of Covenant Hills in Ladera Ranch's intimate Las Piedras enclave, this rarely available single-level Plan 1B with second floor Casita residence by Standard Pacific captures the quiet romance of an old-world European villa. Set on a private cul-de-sac, the homesite was hand-selected by its original owners for its privacy, abundant natural light, and sweeping sunset views across the valley. From the moment you enter, the home unfolds as a series of intimate outdoor spaces. An entry courtyard with a welcoming fountain leads to a grand central courtyard, where the gentle sound of flowing water becomes the backdrop to everyday life. Beyond, a secluded backyard offers a covered loggia with fireplace, a four-foot-deep saltwater spa with cascading water feature, additional fountains, and panoramic sunset views.

Hand-laid natural stone, traditional bump-and-roll stucco, and an authentic clay tile roof establish the home's enduring character, while soaring ceilings—including a dramatic two-story living room—fill the interiors with light. Honed marble floors, hand-scraped hardwood, cased windows, oversized baseboar
