Property is new construction or fully renovated.
Although built in 1997, the property has undergone a comprehensive recent renovation including brand new luxury flooring, a modern kitchen with updated appliances, and critical system upgrades such as a new HVAC, electrical panel, and PEX re-piping, meeting the criteria for a high-end turnkey residence.
The property features significant high-value infrastructure improvements including PEX re-piping, a new HVAC system, an upgraded electrical panel, and a Tesla charging station, ensuring a low-maintenance move-in experience.
Positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac with no homes directly behind, the oversized wraparound backyard offers rare privacy and mature landscaping that is highly sought after in the Melrose community.
Residents enjoy a gated enclave lifestyle with HOA-maintained front yards and access to the prestigious Mission Viejo Lake, providing a resort-style environment with swimming, boating, and seasonal events.
With 1,754 square feet of living space, the interior may feel somewhat restrictive for buyers accustomed to the larger floor plans typically found in this price bracket.
The current 3-bedroom configuration may limit appeal for larger families or those requiring a dedicated home office without converting existing flexible living space.
