About This Home

As of September 2025

Recently REMODELED this immaculate SINGLE LEVEL home blends on-trend design with an open and inviting floor plan, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. From the main living areas and backyard, take in tranquil golf course views for a peaceful backdrop to your daily life. The spacious chef’s kitchen features matching Bosch appliances, granite countertops, a 5-burner gas cooktop, and abundant storage. Adjacent to the great room, the third bedroom has been opened and transformed into a light-filled home office with custom built-in desk. The primary suite is a private retreat with its own patio, a remodeled ensuite bath, and a generous walk-in closet. Both the primary and guest baths showcase stylish updates, including walk-in showers, granite counters, and coordinating tile accents. Practical amenities include an indoor laundry room with utility sink, a 2-car direct-access garage with storage cabinets and a sealed floor, plus a newer air conditioner and water heater. Low-maintenance landscaping means more time to enjoy life—front yard care is handled by the homeowner’s association, and the backyard stays pristine with artificial grass. Located in the desirable Talega community, residents enjoy access to a championship golf course, pools, tennis courts, hiking trails, parks, and year-round community events. Just minutes from shopping, dining, and San Clemente’s beautiful beaches, this turnkey home is your chance to live the coastal lifestyle at its best.
