Welcome to 1 Danta, right in the heart of Rancho Santa Margarita—consistently ranked as one of the safest cities in California! This beautifully updated home offers the largest floor plan in the neighborhood with 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a downstairs powder room, and 1,977 sq ft of comfortable living space. The front yard seating area welcomes you to step inside to a light-filled living room with soaring ceilings and an updated iron and wood stair railing that gives the home an open, airy vibe. The entire interior has been freshly painted in a clean, light color palette and features hardwood floors, plus brand-new carpet on the stairs and throughout the upstairs bedrooms and hall. The refreshed kitchen is both stylish and functional with solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, newer stainless steel appliances (including a brand-new refrigerator), and a cozy eat-in nook with oversized windows and built-in bench seating with storage. The family room is inviting which has a brick fireplace with custom iron doors, built-in media center (TV included), surround sound and subwoofer wiring, ceiling speakers, and divided light French doors that lead out to the spacious backyard. Outside, you’ll find a beautifully landscaped yard with multiple seating areas, generously sized side yards, a putting green, two storage sheds, and an impressive collection of fruit trees—apple, orange, lemon, lime, avocado, and pomegranate! Downstairs also includes an updated powder room, indoor laundry with washer and dryer included, and direct access to the 2-car garage with brand new epoxy floors and a handy workbench. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with high ceilings and a completely reimagined ensuite bath featuring a large walk-in shower with travertine stone walls and flooring, freestanding tub, dual-sink vanity, and a spacious secondary closet area. A real stunner! Three additional bedrooms share an updated full bathroom with dual sinks and a tub/shower combo.
Additional perks include a whole-house fan, and Levelor cellular shades with the blackout feature in the bedrooms. Enjoy low HOA dues and access to Rancho Santa Margarita’s amazing amenities: the Beach Club Lagoon at RSM Lake, multiple pools, parks, splash pad, pickleball and sports courts, scenic trails near O’Neill Park, summer movies, live music at the lake, and easy walking access to shops, restaurants, and community events. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a home in the RSM Lake community!
