About this property
Tucked within the highly desired gated community of San Juan Hills Estates, this well-appointed home offers generous living spaces, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and a secluded setting surrounded by mature landscaping. A flagstone walkway welcomes you to the property, leading past a fountain and white roses to the front entry. Inside, a dramatic foyer greets you with soaring two-story ceilings, a graceful curved staircase, and an abundance of natural light. French doors in the living, dining, and family rooms open directly to the yard, extending every main living space outdoors. Beautiful hardwood floors and custom light fixtures run throughout the main level. The kitchen features Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, white cabinetry, all-new stainless steel appliances, a center island, and pantry storage. A breakfast area framed by a bay window flows naturally into the family room, complete with built-ins, recessed lighting, and a gas fireplace. The first floor also includes a laundry room, a large mudroom, a garage with an epoxy floor, and a bedroom with a full bath, ideal for guests, a home office, or a den. Upstairs, the hardwood carries into the primary suite, a spacious retreat with its own sitting room, gas fireplace, plantation-shuttered windows, and two walk-in closets. The primary bath offers dual vanities, a freestanding tub, and an oversized shower. Two additional bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet, share a Jack-and-Jill bath with a separate vanity for each room. Outside, mature plantings create a quiet sense of seclusion around multiple outdoor spaces, including a sunny side lawn and a rear patio with plenty of room to relax, dine, and soak up the Southern California sunshine. A gated side path provides convenient access from the front of the property. Nestled in the rolling hills around San Juan Hills Golf Club, this gated community offers a tranquil, secure setting near open space and trails. Historic downtown San Juan Capistrano is just minutes away, home to the iconic Mission San Juan Capistrano, the charming Los Rios Historic District, and a variety of dining and shopping. Doheny State Beach and Dana Point Harbor are a short drive away, with easy access to the 5 freeway. This is a true dream home, with the space, setting, and location to enjoy the very best of San Juan Capistrano.
