Welcome to this beautifully updated, light-filled carriage-style end unit in the desirable Bella Ventana community of Rancho Santa Margarita. With no neighbors above or below, this private and peaceful home features an attached one-car garage with built-ins and generous storage, plus an additional designated parking space. A brand-new central HVAC system was installed in July 2025, ensuring year-round comfort. The community exterior was also recently painted, adding to the neighborhood’s modern curb appeal that complements the home’s bright and airy interior. Inside, you’ll find vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open layout enhanced by new wide-plank luxury vinyl wood-style flooring, plush carpeting, updated baseboards, and fresh paint throughout. The family and dining areas have been virtually staged to showcase scale and flow, while the kitchen is appointed with granite countertops, a custom backsplash, Kohler sink, Whirlpool dishwasher, and Samsung microwave, with a Whirlpool washer and dryer included. Additional features include crown molding, Nest WiFi thermostat, ceiling fan, plantation shutters, an oversized primary bedroom with custom closet organizers, an updated bathroom vanity and mirror, and a private gated balcony. Ideally situated in a quiet, interior location of this pet-friendly community with access to all SAMLARC amenities—RSM Lake and Beach Club, 13 parks, 4 Olympic-size pools, tennis courts, sports fields, and miles of scenic trails. With low HOA dues, award-winning schools, convenient 241 Toll Road access, low taxes, and no Mello-Roos, this move-in ready gem offers comfort, style, and community.
