Sequestered beyond the guarded entry gates of Covenant Hills at Ladera Ranch, this luxurious residence rivals custom homes with its impressive selection of appointments and upgrades. A commanding street presence is defined by a long, gated driveway, a gated entry courtyard with fountain, handsome hardscaping, and mature landscaping that embraces the entire residence. An equally appealing interior extends approximately 4,466 square feet and features a formal foyer, a formal living room with vaulted ceiling, a formal dining room for sophisticated entertaining, four ensuite bedrooms and five baths. A main-level office can easily be transformed into a fifth bedroom with included plans. Host spur-of-the-moment gatherings, fun-filled movie nights and special occasions in the family room and kitchen area, where a built-in entertainment center, fresh white cabinetry, island with bar seating, breakfast nook, farmhouse sink, and stainless steel GE Monogram appliances including a built-in refrigerator are on display. Juliet balconies complement select guest suites, and the main-level primary suite reveals a generous walk-in closet, separate vanities, a large shower and a soaking tub. Guests will appreciate the private comfort of a casita with separate entrance, and the second-floor bonus room provides a versatile space for entertaining and relaxation. Located on a preferred cul-de-sac street in Covenant Hills’ Encantada enclave, the home boasts a spacious site of about .27 acres that allows ample room for a west-facing backyard with a pool, spa, fountains, patios and olive trees. Sunset, city-light and Saddleback Mountain views are enjoyed from the estate, which is moments from a private clubhouse with pool and tennis courts, miles of trails, award-winning schools, countless parks and popular shopping centers.
