    What's special

    Located in one of Mission Viejo’s most desirable neighborhoods, 26661 Carretas Drive offers a rare opportunity to secure a well priced home with strong upside potential. Recent matching floor plans in the neighborhood have sold or are currently offered between $1.32M and $1.85M, positioning this property as an exceptional value. The home’s major systems including the roof, plumbing, and electrical are in working condition, allowing a buyer to move in and enjoy the home immediately. Whether the plan is to live comfortably as is, make selective cosmetic updates over time, or pursue a full scale renovation, the flexibility is entirely yours. The home features five bedrooms and three bathrooms with a spacious, light filled layout that already flows extremely well, eliminating the need to remove or relocate walls. The open floor plan creates a natural connection between living spaces, while the kitchen integrates seamlessly with the rest of the home, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Outside, the private backyard offers beautiful west facing views and a pool area with excellent potential. The pool is currently not operational, presenting a blank canvas for renovation, redesign, or conversion into a large lawn. This outdoor space has the foundation to become a true retreat for relaxing, entertaining, enjoying the California climate, and taking in sunset views. Set within a quiet, family friendly community, the home is within walking distance of top rated Class A schools and just minutes from shopping, dining, and entertainment at the Mission Viejo Mall and The Shops at Mission Viejo. Lake Mission Viejo is also nearby, offering boating, fishing, and year round outdoor activities. This is a rare chance to purchase a livable home today with the option to customize tomorrow, all in one of Mission Viejo’s most sought after neighborhoods.
