Just beyond, the family room offers a relaxed gathering space with built-in cabinetry, custom stone accents, and seamless access to the backyard. The kitchen is ideally positioned to enjoy the scenery and features granite countertops, white cabinetry, stainless appliances, a center island, recessed lighting, and a sunlit breakfast nook overlooking the hills and city below. Sliding doors connect the living spaces to the backyard, creating effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite serves as a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, large picture windows, and stunning panoramic views. The remodeled en-suite bath showcases dual vanities, marble countertops, designer cabinetry, an oversized walk-in shower, and generous storage. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath with dual sinks and provide flexibility for family, guests, or a home office. The backyard is designed to maximize the incredible setting, offering multiple patios, a covered dining area, mature landscaping, and front-row seats to spectacular sunsets and twinkling evening lights. Whether enjoying a quiet morning coffee or entertaining guests, the outdoor spaces provide an unforgettable backdrop. Residents of Rocking Horse Ridge enjoy 24-hour guard-gated security and resort-style amenities including a clubhouse, pool, spa, tennis and pickleball courts, playground, greenbelts, and access to nearby Peters Canyon Regional Park. This is a rare opportunity to own a view home in one of Orange County’s most sought-after hillside communities.
