Valuations are going up. Don't miss this opportunity in the highly desirable gated “Gallery” of Talega – San Clemente’s premier 55+ community for active adults. This spacious single-family cul-de-sac home is nestled among meticulously maintained homes in a quiet neighborhood. A similar setting in an age-related development is not available in this geographic area. Along with other rooms the main level includes the master, a bedroom, a possible fourth bedroom, and two full baths, while the upstairs is an exclusive suite. The foyer leads you into the grand living and dining room that are superb for entertaining with their soaring ceilings, a marble stone-framed gas fireplace, and two sets of exterior French doors. A beautiful staircase leads to the upstairs guest retreat consisting of a sitting room, a bedroom, and a full bath. The retreat has its own climate control (ac/heat) and surround sound system. Guests enthuse over their private hideaway! The expansive kitchen has slab granite center island and counters with full backsplash, stainless appliances, upgraded cherry wood cabinets providing ample amounts of storage, a large dining area and a built-in desk. French doors open to the professionally landscaped, low maintenance backyard with decorative lighting, sprinkler system, flowerbeds, fruit trees, and covered flagstone patio areas for shaded al fresco dining or relaxing. The family room has a stacked-stone gas fireplace and built-in surround sound system with music piped into the downstairs master bedroom suite and the study/den. The master bedroom suite foyer has built in cabinets and counter space. The master bedroom suite itself is dramatic with coffered ceilings, dual ceramic vanities, enclosed toilet area, oval tub, walk-in shower, and a very large walk-in closet. A French door opens to the backyard covered patio. There is a separate laundry room with a set tub and storage cabinets. Additional storage is under the staircase. The two-car garage (keypad entry) has a side door that opens to a concrete walk that leads to the backyard or gate to the front of the home. The front yard is maintained by the Home Owners Association. The beautiful Talega Gallery clubhouse is exclusive to Gallery residents and offers a staffed facility that has a heated pool, jacuzzi, fitness center, billiards room, putting area, bocce court, library, conference rooms, variety of clubs, activities/trips, special events, and much more. Another Talega club (outside the Gallery) , offering activities, pools, and tennis courts, also is available to the Gallery residents. Talega Gallery won the Best of Senior Housing Award for 2001. In addition, the Talega Golf Club, which has a full-service clubhouse, has a Fred Couples 18 hole, par 72 signature course that won Golf Digest’s “America’s Best Golf Course” designation. For an appointment, please call 949 369-5752. No solicitors, please. Neighborhood Description One person in the household must be 55+, so Talega Gallery is primarily a community of seniors. As a result the heavy morning and evening traffic of working people found in other developments is absent in the Gallery. Grocery stores, coffee shops, gas station, and post office are close by. Because the Home Owners Association maintains all the Gallery's front yards (mowing, pruning, fertilizing, sprinkling), the area consistently has that "well kept" appearance.
