About This Home
GORGEOUS MELINDA HEIGHTS HOME W 4 BEDROOMS + LOFT, looks like a MODEL HOME!
Welcome to this beautifully customized home in the highly desirable Melinda Heights community of Rancho Santa Margarita! Thoughtfully reimagined by the owners, this residence now offers 4 spacious bedrooms plus a versatile loft, perfect for a home office, playroom, or media space.
Downstairs, a wall has been removed to create a bright, open-concept floor plan that seamlessly connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas—ideal for entertaining family and friends. The home has been freshly updated throughout with new paint, new flooring, dual-pane windows, stylish window framing, 3.5” baseboards, and elegant crown molding. The remodeled Primary Suite provides a luxurious retreat with its upgraded bathroom finishes. Additional features include a convenient Murphy bed (included with the home), rain gutters, newer air conditioning system, and built-in storage cabinetry in both the kitchen and garage. Step outside and enjoy the custom outdoor living space, complete with an inviting fireplace and a built-in BBQ with direct gas connection—perfect for weekend gatherings and sunset dinners. Situated within walking distance to the Blue Ribbon Melinda Heights Elementary School and close to two large parks and community pools, this home offers the perfect balance of comfort and convenience. Residents also enjoy access to the Santa Margarita Lake and Beach Club, which features four Jr. Olympic-sized pools, tennis, pickleball, basketball and volleyball courts, plus baseball and soccer fields. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle opportunity in one of South Orange County’s most sought-after neighborhoods!
