Nestled on a large and exceptionally private corner homesite at guard-gated Covenant Hills in Ladera Ranch, this move-in-ready residence offers the rare advantages of a single-level floorplan. A virtual forest of mature trees and lush, beautifully maintained landscaping sequesters the home from its cul-de-sac neighbors and lends shade and serenity to multiple outdoor patios, seating areas and gardens. These gorgeous spaces flow easily to the interior through multiple sets of slideaway glass doors, creating a highly desirable indoor/outdoor living environment that embellishes entertaining and daily living. The one-story design is impressively sized at approximately 3,252 square feet and features four bedrooms and three- and one-half baths. Two primary suites are showcased and separate from secondary bedrooms for maximum privacy. Soothing natural light fills the home with a bright and warm ambiance, while custom French Oak hardwood flooring, distinctive archways, vaulted and beamed ceilings, fresh interior paint, and custom crown and base molding are on display. Opening to a fireplace-warmed family room with access to two patios, the kitchen hosts an oversized island with seating, handsome cabinetry, granite countertops, a walk-in pantry, built-in breakfast nook, full tile backsplash, and a top-of-the-line Thermador appliance package including a built-in refrigerator and a six-burner range. The main primary suite is introduced by an entry with built-in cabinetry and shelving and offers a sitting area, a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and a lavish bath with jetted soaking tub, separate shower, dual vanities and marble finishes. Spanning about 16,380 square feet, grounds reveal extensive custom hardscaping, with pavers finishing a long driveway, patios and walkways. Custom arbor-style patio covers and elegant fountains enhance select areas, the courtyard offers a spacious and private outdoor oasis, and a custom open-air fireplace lends a touch of enchantment to evenings with friends. One patio features a custom built-in BBQ island with Fire Magic grill and appliances, and an another presents terraced gardens complete with fruit trees. Covenant Hills is the most exclusive neighborhood within Ladera Ranch and offers a luxurious private clubhouse, swimming pools, spas, tennis, parks and trails. Residents will appreciate being close to award-winning schools, shops, restaurants, and the coastal towns of Dana Point and Laguna Beach.
