About This Home

As of July 2024

Welcome to 68 Via Sonrisa in Pacific Crest, a beautiful, gated community in the coastal city of San Clemente. The ideal location of this home offers natural beauty and is conveniently close to shopping, walking trails, Vista Hermosa Aquatics & Sports Center, and the beach. With 5 spacious bedrooms, there is plenty of space for a large family. The expansive main living areas are brightened by large windows that offer natural light and views of the surroundings. The living room and formal dining area have soaring ceilings; the large kitchen opens to the family room; and entertainers will love the tranquil backyard with borrowed views of an oak-lined hillside. Right off the entry, a spacious office is perfect for those working from home, and the first-floor bedroom could also serve as a second office. Newly remodeled, the master bathroom suite competes for being the finest feature of the home. A recently installed solar array will dramatically reduce monthly living expenses, as will one of the lowest property tax rates (no Mello Roos) in all of Orange County. This Home checks all boxes: beautiful, quiet, convenient, safe, private, recreational & entertainment space, and value.
