About This Home
As of April 2025Scenic views, elegant living spaces and a custom-expanded floorplan are just the beginning of the many advantages you will love at this move-in-ready home in San Clemente’s master-planned community of Talega. Located on an elevated cul-de-sac-street lot of about 5,777 square feet, the upgraded residence offers panoramic neighborhood, hill and evening-light views. Custom hardscaping, including front steps and raised planters, complements a covered entry porch that wraps around to a side patio that’s perfect for entertaining loved ones. A formal foyer leads to a formal dining room with fireplace, setting the scene for special occasions throughout the year. Wonderfully open and light, the fully appointed kitchen presents handsome dark-stained wood cabinetry, granite countertops with full backsplash, an island with seating, walk-in pantry, stainless-steel appliances and a charming breakfast area. The kitchen continues into a cozy family room with fireplace, backyard access, and a built-in entertainment center with in-ceiling speakers. Noteworthy upgrades are appreciated throughout the five-bedroom, three-bath home, which now spans approximately 2,817 square feet. Enjoy custom paint and lighting fixtures, plantations shutters, crown molding, ceiling fans, designer tile flooring throughout the first level, picture-frame bathroom mirrors, and extensive built-ins in the three-car garage. One bedroom is conveniently located on the first floor, and the second level showcases an expanded loft with closet, and a laundry room with sink and ample cabinet space. Sweeping views enliven the senses in a primary suite with balcony, sitting area, soaking tub, separate shower and individual vanities. Step outside into a backyard that is primed for fun in the sun, complete with a custom covered patio, loggia, custom built-in BBQ, and a custom open-air fireplace with built-in seating. Talega’s championship golf course, Tierra Grande Park, Tierra Grande Swim Club, award-winning schools and miles of trails are nearby, and the beaches and pier of San Clemente are only about 10 minutes away.
