Welcome to this contemporary home, nestled in the Mesa Del Mar community. Cherished since 1964 by its original owners, this residence has been lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded to meet modern standards while preserving its unique character.
A private and landscaped garden courtyard leads you to the front door, setting the stage for what's to come. Entering through the double front doors, you are greeted by views of the sparkling backyard pool through expansive living room picture windows. The backyard is further accentuated by a custom Ironwood pergola atop a raised deck, a built-in charcoal grill, and an array of mature citrus trees including lime, blood orange, navel and valencia oranges, for your enjoyment.
This property is a blend of comfort and coziness across two levels. The home features five versatile bedrooms and three bathrooms, with two bedrooms conveniently located on the main level for easy accessibility. One of these rooms has been transformed creatively into a cozy den, complete with custom bookcases that reveal a hidden original bedroom closet space and offers a backyard and pool view. The primary bedroom suite is located on the second level separated from from two bedrooms and an additional bathroom.
The home's remodeled kitchen showcases red oak and granite custom flooring, laying the foundation with coordinated cabinet finishes and stainless steel appliances. Enhanced with pull-out drawers in the cabinets and a whole-house water filtration system, this space is designed with functionality. The kitchen also has an inviting eating area, perfect for gathering around the table with loved ones. A separate dining room adjacent to the living room has a picture view of the backyard. An additional feature of dual paned windows and sliding doors throughout the home.
Within this neighborhood are schools and TeWinkle Park. Nearby are colleges, several freeways, the OC Fairground, local shopping centers as well as South Coast Plaza. Experience the perfect blend of past and present in this Mesa Del Mar gem.
