Property Description
Nestled within the coveted Gate 11 community of Laguna Woods-Southern California's premier 55+ enclave just minutes from the beaches of Laguna-this beautifully remodeled home offers refined living with thoughtful design and modern luxury.
Boasting over 1,700 square feet plus a sunroom of more than 200 square feet, this residence features two spacious primary suites, each with fully remodeled bathrooms showcasing dual vanities, walk-in showers and custom closets. The open-concept kitchen is designed for entertaining, flowing seamlessly into a bright and airy living room accented by coffered ceilings and newly added transom windows that bathe the space in natural light.
Throughout the home, exquisite details include laminated wood flooring, crown molding, recessed lighting, and upgraded doors and windows. The expansive sunroom-an inviting retreat with views of the neighborhood-is perfect for morning coffee, game nights, or quiet reading. A dedicated office space off the kitchen offers courtyard views and doubles as a flexible workspace.
Outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with a beautifully tiled courtyard featuring a covered patio and BBQ island-ideal for dining al fresco-and a tiled back patio framed by a wrought iron fence overlooking a serene view. Accessibility has been subtly integrated with widened doorways, supporting comfortable aging in place.
The finished two-car garage includes epoxy flooring, pull-down attic storage, laundry area with washer and dryer, and abundant cabinetry.
Set within a secure and vibrant community with world-class amenities, this home blends comfort, elegance, and convenience- all within one of Southern California's most desirable 55+ gated communities.
