More Insights

Built in 1980 (45 years old).
Condition: Built in 1980, this property is 44 years old. While the description states it's 'beautifully maintained and updated' with an 'opened kitchen' and 'refreshed en suite,' the images reveal cosmetic updates rather than extensive modern renovations. The kitchen features two-tone painted cabinets and black appliances, which are functional and clean but not contemporary. Flooring includes tile in the kitchen/dining and carpet in bedrooms, which are well-kept but not new. The mirrored closet doors are also indicative of the home's original era. Major systems like AC/heating are present, and the water heater is newer, indicating good maintenance. Overall, it's a very clean and move-in ready home, but its updates are more in line with regular upkeep and occasional refreshes, showing signs of being aged but well-maintained, fitting the 'Fair' category.

About this home

CASTA DEL SOL - 55+ AND A GREAT PLACE TO CALL HOME- Welcome to this beautifully maintained and updated hilltop home enjoying blue sky views plus gorgeous sunsets from the tiled front porch. This one is light and bright and full of tranquility and ease. There is an opened kitchen with access to a large atrium and the oversized garage. Soaring ceilings in the stylish living room with a fireplace for when you want to snuggle in and enjoy the quiet. This reverse Casa Maya is meticulously kept and clean with the bedrooms enjoying large closets with mirrored wardrobes. The Primary is a refreshed en suite and the Guest room has patio access for that morning coffee and shares the Hall Bath with party guests. Living spaces run along the back of the house to take advantage of a large patio and beautiful greenbelt for al fresco dining and entertaining. There is a lovely tiled open Atrium with access from LR and kitchen into the oversized attached garage for workshop, sink, laundry and storage. Central AC and Heating keep you comfy and a newer water heater keeps those showers refreshing. An insulated roll up garage door and oversized garage makes parking, storage and projects easy. Lots of amenities and activities offered but none mandatory - your choice! Convenient access to community amenities, and great access to the community of Mission Viejo with even more activities, restaurants, shops and services. Retirement elevated - literally and metaphorically.
