About This Home

As of September 2025

Discover a beautifully transformed corner condo in the sought-after Las Flores III community that combines comfort, function, and thoughtful design throughout. This ground-level unit captures abundant natural light from multiple exposures, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere the moment you walk in.

The renovation throughout showcases quality upgrades that make a real difference in daily living. The high grade vinyl flooring, fresh paint and baseboards flows through the open floor plan from living to dining area and kitchen —perfect for both quiet evenings and hosting friends— to the hallway connecting the bedrooms and bath. The reimagined kitchen features new cabinets, quartz countertops and sleek stainless appliances. Both bedrooms have been enhanced with custom closet organization systems to increase your storage needs. The renovated bathroom will be your favorite place to get ready for the day with its modern fixtures and thoughtful design.

What sets this home apart are the details that matter: in-unit laundry tucked away neatly, a covered front porch that extends your living space outdoors, and a security system that gives you peace of mind. The covered parking space, plus an additional open spot, means you'll never circle the block looking for a place to park.

Living in Las Flores III connects you to Rancho Santa Margarita's active lifestyle—community pool and spa just steps away, plus easy access to the area's recreational facilities, shopping, and dining scene. The HOA fees are refreshingly reasonable, especially considering what's included.

This isn't just another condo—it's a home that's been carefully upgraded and thoughtfully maintained, ready for someone who appreciates quality and convenience in equal measure.
