Description

Set on one of just a handful of street-to-street lots in Nellie Gail Ranch, this French Country estate offers a lifestyle that few homes in the community can match. Terraced grounds descend across 0.83 acres to a private putting green and fenced equestrian area that backs directly to the horse trail and community clubhouse beyond, placing tennis, pickleball, pool, and the clubhouse restaurant within an easy walk from your own backyard. Sweeping views stretch toward Saddleback Mountain, rolling hills, and evening city lights. A gated U-shaped drive arrives at a motorcourt and three-car garage, where grand double doors open to fully renovated interiors of coffered and vaulted ceilings, wood-look LVP floors, and walls of glass that draw the landscape inside. The formal living room features a fireplace and views to the infinity pool, while a gracefully curving staircase ascends to the upper level. A main-level office with built-ins opens into a dedicated wine room. The family room flows openly into a chef’s kitchen outfitted with Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, a generous center island, granite surfaces, and a walk-in pantry, with sliding doors extending everyday living out to the patio. A wet bar with wine fridge, powder bath, and a main-level suite, ideal for guests or multigenerational living, complete this floor. A second staircase leads to an oversized bonus room above the garage, lined with storage and ready to serve as a playroom, media room, or den. Upstairs, the primary suite occupies its own private wing, with tray ceilings, a fireplace, and French doors opening to a balcony framing the priceless view. The spa-inspired primary bath centers on a freestanding soaking tub between dual vanities, alongside an oversized rainfall shower and a generous walk-in closet. Three additional en-suite bedrooms each carry their own character, from open-beam ceilings and a step-out balcony to a jetted tub in the bath. Outdoors, a covered lounge with heating and fan sits alongside a full grill station and bar, outdoor fireplace, and fire pit, while an infinity pool with a rock waterslide and spa overlook the grounds below. Garden paths wind through mature landscape to the putting green and equestrian area beyond. With 25 miles of trails, a clubhouse, racquet and swim facilities, and low HOA fees, Nellie Gail Ranch offers one of South Orange County’s most distinctive lifestyles. Few homes within it occupy a setting quite like this one.
