Top-Floor End Unit in Mission Courts II Vaulted Ceilings Two Balconies Private Garage Full SAMLARC Access 2 bed 2 bath 890 sq ft $3,100/mo Available 11/15/2026 Welcome to Mission Courts II a well-kept, family-friendly community in the heart of Rancho Santa Margarita. This top-floor, single-level end unit is as quiet and private as condominium living gets: no neighbors above, only garages below, and just one shared wall. Inside, vaulted ceilings in the living room and both bedrooms give all 890 square feet an open, relaxing feel. A gas fireplace anchors the living room, which steps out through a sliding glass door to a private balcony overlooking the beautifully landscaped community entrance always green and well maintained. The primary bedroom has its own second balcony with the same peaceful outlook, a quiet spot for morning coffee or the evening breeze. New bamboo noise quieting wood flooring and baseboards run throughout, freshly painted (November 2026), ceiling and trim, and new cordless blinds on the windows. The home has been refreshed top to bottom for 2026. The kitchen offers a dishwasher, a new countertop and sink, and a new refrigerator and stove installed in November 2026. A new stackable washer and dryer is included in the unit (no shared laundry room) and both bedrooms have new ceiling fans. Both bathrooms are freshly painted with new hardware. The A/C unit and Furnace were also fully replaced in 2026 and feature central heat and A/C keeping it comfortable year-round, controlled by an Ecobee smart thermostat upgraded in 2026. A Ring video doorbell is also already installed. Extra storage is in the garage. New dual-pane windows and a new sliding glass door to the balcony are scheduled for installation between December 15, 2026 and January 15, 2027, timed to contractor delivery. You'll be the first to live with them: quieter rooms, better efficiency, and a brighter connection to the view. Parking is easy and genuinely uncommon for a condo this size: a private one-car garage directly beneath the home, plus two assigned parking spaces covered by resident permits. Then there's the neighborhood, which is the real draw. Mission Courts II has its own pool and plenty of open space for walks with family and pets. Additional Ammenities: As a resident you also receive full SAMLARC access: Lake Rancho Santa Margarita and its 1.1-mile walking loop, the Beach Club swim lagoon, volleyball courts, BBQ and picnic areas, 13 parks, 4 pools and miles of trails. The community hosts events all year, including Fourth of July and the annual Christmas Tree Lighting. You can walk to the lake and to Mercado del Lago's shops and dining, and the 241 toll road and I-5 are just minutes away.
