A charming approach welcomes you with blooming white roses, a classic white picket fence, and a quaint front porch-perfect for morning coffee. The spacious front yard offers additional opportunities for outdoor gatherings, setting the tone for a home designed to enjoy Southern California's indoor-outdoor lifestyle. This single-level residence spans over 1,600 square feet and features three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The generous dining space is lined with picture windows, filling the home with natural light. The open-concept floorplan flows seamlessly into an updated kitchen appointed with quartz countertops, custom shaker-style cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Just beyond, a step-down family room offers a second wood-burning fireplace and flexible living space ideal for relaxing or entertaining. All three bedrooms are generously sized and feature cedar-lined closets and custom built-ins. The primary bathroom is thoughtfully upgraded with a custom dual-sink vanity and designer tile finishes. Additional improvements include air conditioning, a mini-split system in the family room, and a beautifully maintained private backyard with mature landscaping and new sod. A newer Trex deck provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining year-round. A long driveway with ample parking leads to a one-car garage, adding both convenience and functionality. This home also sits in the boundary for Las Palmas Elementary, one of a few Spanish Immersion schools in Orange County. Located just moments from San Clemente Pier and the shops and restaurants along Avenida Del Mar, this home offers a truly walkable lifestyle in one of the area's most sought-after coastal communities.
