Welcome to 3231 Rowena Drive, a thoughtfully preserved and tastefully updated mid-century modern home located in the highly sought-after community of Rossmoor. Featured on the 2025 Rossmoor Garden Tour, the property showcases one of the community’s most beautifully curated and private front yards. Beyond its visual appeal, the outdoor space has been seamlessly integrated with the home’s interior. All Weather glass sliders stack open to the left or right, creating a natural connection between the living room and front yard, while an additional slider off the dining area extends the living space to the backyard—resulting in a bright, open environment that perfectly suits Southern California’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The kitchen continues the home’s refined upgrades, offering custom rift-sawn white oak cabinetry, Heath ceramics backsplash, Wilsonart Quartz countertops, and premium Bosch and Thermador appliances. Throughout the main living areas, Canadian “carob” maple floors provide a warm contrast to original mid-century elements such a block fireplace with exposed aggregate detailing, an indoor planter, and floor-to-ceiling glass. The property also has a fully finished attached 2-car garage. A true hidden gem within a highly desirable neighborhood, this home offers a rare blend of architectural character, modern upgrades, and effortless California living. Rossmoor is a northwest Orange County community renowned for its exceptional schools, strong sense of community, safety, parks, and advantageous location in the heart of Southern California. This home, known as the “Western Estate” model—is one of the neighborhood’s original mid-century modern floor plans and one that should not be missed.
