LOCATION IS ALWAYS THE KEY AND THIS HOME ABSOLUTELY HAS IT ALL.... This panoramic view stretches from Saddleback Mountain to the north, to the hills of Dana Point to the south and encompasses Lake Mission Viejo, East Beach, the Oak Preserve, hills, mountains, green belts and city lights. Situated on a single loaded cul-de-sac, it looks down onto another single loaded cul-de-sac. The exterior and interior have both just been painted. The enchanting front yard has extensive brickwork and lush, tropical landscaping. Begin your adventure as you pass through the new front door and enter the step-up living room with its vaulted ceiling. The remodeled kitchen is a wonder to behold... new stainless steel appliances including an electric cooktop, stainless sink, porcelain counters and backsplash, shaker cabinets with dovetail joint construction and soft close feature and 8 can lights.
