About This Home
As of May 2025A Rare Rossmoor Highlands Find – Over 3,100 Sq Ft of Charm on a 7,200 Sq Ft LotFeaturing 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, and a 3-car garage, this beautifully expanded residence is nestled in the heart of a sought-after cul-de-sac in the desirable Rossmoor Highlands—where opportunity meets space, location, and undeniable curb appeal. Designed for both comfort and flow, this home invites you to imagine the lifestyle it offers today, with room to add your own simple touches in the future. From the moment you arrive, the charm is clear—classic stucco paired with horizontal siding, a brick-laid pathway, and a welcoming covered front porch set the tone. The front and backyards are tastefully landscaped with decomposed granite walkways, vibrant flowering plants, native shrubs, and mature lemon and tangerine trees. Inside, a front-facing den with a cozy fireplace offers the perfect flex space for a sitting room, home office, or bonus entertaining area. The smartly designed galley kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash, and a sunny breakfast nook with views of the garden. The adjacent dining room and family room, where a second fireplace adds warmth and comfort, has large sliding glass doors that lead to a private outdoor retreat—a generous covered patio, peaceful garden paths, and a pool and spa that could shine once again with the right care. The space is ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the Southern California sunshine. Down the hall, you’ll find a spacious laundry and craft room, a guest bedroom with backyard access (or a private office), and two additional bedrooms (perfect for multigenerational living)—one with an en-suite bath and pool access, the other tucked privately with use of the guest hall bathroom. Upstairs opens to a large bonus family room with a third fireplace and kitchenette—perfect for movie nights or a quiet getaway. The expansive primary suite includes a large bathroom, walk-in closet, and convenient pocket-door access to the hallway. Two more upstairs bedrooms share a full bath with dual sinks. This home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy spacious living in one of Orange County’s most desirable neighborhoods. Located within the award-winning Los Alamitos School District, just minutes from the Shops at Rossmoor and a short drive to the beach, this is the kind of home that doesn’t come along often. Come feel the love and imagine your next chapter here.
