About this property
Tucked into the trees of The Woods of Lake Forest, this beautifully refreshed 5-bedroom, 3-bath home offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and modern updates in one of Lake Forest’s most unique neighborhood settings. The first floor includes a bedroom and a full bath and the upstairs room on the third level can be used as an office; main living spaces are on both floors with the Master bedroom and 2 bedrooms on the second level. There is access to Sun-and-Sail club with pool, tennis courts, and lake. A beautiful newly landscaped side yard accessible from the deck that most other properties do not within the area. Located on a cul-de-sac, the home features generous interior living areas, a flexible bedroom layout, a side yard, and an expansive rear deck surrounded by mature trees. The floor plan is designed with separation and flexibility in mind, offering comfortable spaces for everyday living, dining, entertaining, working from home, or hosting guests. A main-level bedroom and bath add convenience, while the spacious primary suite is privately set apart with its own balcony overlooking the wooded surroundings. The home has been thoughtfully refreshed with updated flooring, fresh interior paint, recessed lighting, updated electrical components, new ceiling fans and interior doors, refreshed bathroom tile and fixtures, updated plumbing components, appliances, drywall and texture work, HVAC ductwork, roofing work, and stylish accent finishes throughout. Outdoor living is a standout feature, with a large rear deck and side yard offering usable space for relaxing, dining, or entertaining. Residents enjoy access to pools, tennis courts, recreational amenities, social activities, and more. Close to schools, shopping, dining, the 5 and 405 freeways, the 241 Toll Road, and Orange County coastal destinations, this updated home offers a peaceful wooded setting with everyday convenience.
