About this property
Located within The Gallery, Talega’s gated 55+ community, this beautifully maintained single-level Wavecrest home combines an elevated setting with a wide, open rear outlook and approximately 1,785 square feet of comfortable living space. The home features three bedrooms, a two-car garage, an open floor plan designed for easy everyday living, and the added benefit of having been repiped in 2018. A landscaped, gated courtyard creates an inviting entrance, while hardwood and tile flooring, plantation shutters, recessed lighting and abundant windows carry throughout the interior. The spacious living and dining areas center around a fireplace with built-in cabinetry and connect directly to the rear patio. The kitchen features extensive cabinetry, updated stone countertops and backsplash, a center island, stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, built-in oven and microwave, and a separate breakfast area surrounded by windows. The primary suite offers generous proportions with hardwood flooring, plantation shutters, multiple windows, a walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with dual sinks and a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, an office or additional living space, complemented by a full guest bath and dedicated laundry room with built-in cabinetry. Outside, an expansive landscaped patio stretches along the rear of the home, enhanced by retractable awnings and mature greenery. The elevated position opens to a scenic outlook across the surrounding neighborhood and toward the hills and mountains beyond, creating a wonderful sense of openness and separation and making the rear setting one of the home’s standout features. The Gallery offers an exceptional active-adult lifestyle centered around the private 8,500-square-foot Gallery Club, with a fitness center, swimming pool and spa, bocce courts, nine-hole putting course, social spaces, clubs and resident activities. Residents also enjoy Talega’s extensive recreational amenities, including additional pools, tennis and pickleball courts, sport courts and 19 miles of hiking trails. All of this is set within the hills of Talega, just minutes from downtown San Clemente, beaches, shopping and dining, with the home’s elevated setting and open outlook providing a peaceful backdrop to the coastal lifestyle.
