Remarks

Ready for immediate move-in, sellers relocated! This two-story Spanish-Mediterranean townhome is located in a well-maintained community in Rancho Santa Margarita. A private courtyard welcomes you at the entrance, with a second patio accessible from the main level — both great for outdoor relaxing or entertaining. Inside, the living room makes an impression with two-story vaulted ceilings, arched windows that bring in plenty of natural light, and a fireplace. The open floor plan connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen seamlessly. The kitchen is well-equipped with white cabinetry, granite countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, and a breakfast bar peninsula perfect for casual dining. The main level also features a flexible room with a sliding glass door to the rear patio — ideal as a bedroom, home office, or guest space — along with a full bathroom and in-home laundry with washer and dryer hookups. Upstairs, both bedrooms have their own full en-suite bathrooms. The primary suite offers a ceiling fan, plush carpet, and an en-suite bathroom with dual sinks, granite countertops, and mirrored closets.
