Description

Tucked within Rancho Mission Viejo's sought-after Gavilan 55+ community, this bright and inviting home offers the simplicity of single-level living paired with the flexibility of a spacious upstairs retreat. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, connection, and ease, the home allows you to spend less time maintaining and more time enjoying everything this vibrant community has to offer. Inside, the main level unfolds with an open floorplan where the kitchen, dining area, and living room flow seamlessly together. At the heart of the home, the kitchen features a large island with bar seating, extensive cabinetry, upgraded stone backsplash, glass-front accent cabinets, and generous storage space, all overlooking the great room. Natural light pours through five large windows, creating a warm and welcoming gathering space, while sliding glass doors connect the dining area to the covered California room, where mornings begin with coffee, afternoons drift by in the shade, and evenings are spent enjoying Southern California's year-round weather. Designed to live primarily on one level, the home places the primary suite, a secondary bedroom, and two full bathrooms all on the main floor. The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat, complete with a spacious walk-in closet and an upgraded bath featuring dual sinks and a frameless curbless walk-in shower. Nearby, the secondary bedroom and full bath provide comfortable accommodations for guests, visiting family, or a home office. When additional space is needed, the upstairs level offers a welcome surprise. A generous loft creates an entirely separate living area, accompanied by a third bedroom and full bathroom, providing the perfect setting for overnight guests, hobbies, movie nights, or a place for the grandkids to spread out when they visit. Additional conveniences include a large laundry room, hall storage cabinetry, a two-car garage, tankless water heater, and a Halo 5 whole-house filtration and conditioning system. Outside, the low-maintenance backyard is framed by lush greenery and finished with large paver stones, creating a private outdoor retreat without the upkeep. Just moments from The Hilltop Club and award-winning amenities, residents enjoy resort-style pools, fitness centers, bocce courts, social clubs, gathering spaces, scenic trails, and a lifestyle built around connection, wellness, and making the most of this next chapter.
