About This Home
As of June 2025Welcome to 497 Wrightwood - the crown jewel of Orangewood Terrace. Fully reimagined in 2022, this 4-bed, 2.5-bath home is a modern masterpiece where turnkey ease meets designer sophistication - no HOA, no Mello Roos, and no compromises. From magazine-worthy curb appeal and fresh landscaping to curated West Elm lighting and custom ShadeStore window treatments, every detail has been carefully considered. Inside, sleek European oak-style LVP floors anchor light-filled, open spaces, while a modern stair rail adds architectural polish. The Kitchen is a showpiece: all-white quartz counters, bold backsplash, Café appliances, farmhouse sink, and a walk-in pantry - plus a stylish bar with a wine fridge that sets the tone for effortless entertaining. The Great Room flows seamlessly into a resort-style backyard with a replastered pool and spa, new turf and hardscaping, hillside views, and a new Pentair heater - your private oasis awaits. Upstairs, the vaulted-ceiling Primary Suite offers a true retreat, complete with fireplace, walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath featuring dual vanities, sculptural soaking tub, and oversized marble tile. Every finish throughout the home blends timeless design with current trends. System upgrades include new HVAC, upgraded electrical panel, a full Culligan water system, and a pristine 3-car garage with epoxy floors and built-in storage. Close to Old Towne Orange, top rated schools, dining, shopping, and major freeways - 497 Wrightwood doesn’t just check boxes, it raises the bar. Don’t wait, homes like this don’t stay secret for long.
