About this property
Corner-unit condo with a loft that lives like a second bedroom, right across from the pool. Soaring cathedral ceilings open to a spacious upstairs loft with a large storage closet, ideal as a guest room, office, with potential to add a second bathroom (buyer to verify). The home has been upgraded with new double-pane windows, and a newly finished deck patio that catches the afternoon breeze. An oversized garage gives you room for storage, gear, or a workshop. Move-in ready, with the pool entrance just steps from your front door. As a SAMLARC resident, you’ll enjoy the Lake and Beach Club, 13 parks, sports courts, playgrounds, picnic areas, and miles of hiking and biking trails, all in the Saddleback Valley Unified School District.

Payment calculator
Explore a fixed-rate loan scenario. The price comes from this listing; a 20% down payment and 30-year term are starting assumptions, not requirements. Enter your own interest rate—not APR—and estimated costs.

Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
