With just 69 single-family homes, Mirage Cove offers a rare combination of privacy and on-site amenities including swimming, tennis, and pickleball - an ideal retreat for those who value both serenity and community. A private south-facing courtyard sets the stage for arrival before double doors open to a light-filled living space defined by vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, a gas fireplace, and a wet bar. Expansive sliders connect the living and dining areas to a covered patio and a generous backyard designed for indoor/outdoor living.
