    What a great opportunity to own a spacious 5 bedroom, 3 bath home with a 3 car garage in the beautiful Melinda Heights area of Rancho Santa Margarita! Situated on a cul de sac not far from Solano Park, this home is conveniently located in an active community with many activities. A welcoming front porch at the entry greets your guests. This light & sunny home has stone flooring, fresh paint and plantation shutters throughout the first floor (with the exception of roller blinds on the kitchen slider and family room window). The entire HVAC system was replaced 2 years ago, new water heater, a water filtration system as well as a water softening system. A generous sized formal living and dining room as well as a cozy family room with fireplace is perfect for entertaining. The well appointed kitchen opens to the family room. Stone counters, full size pantry, breakfast nook and upgraded cabinetry are some of the amenities. The main floor bedroom and full bath are across the hall from each other and have privacy from the living areas. The interior laundry room can make for a handy "mudroom" with access to the three car garage. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, all with plantation shutters, and a cozy nook at the top of the stairs landing. The primary suite has an oversized bedroom with a view all the way to the ocean on a clear day! A large walk in closet has tons of room and the primary bath has been redone with a custom size shower with clear glass enclosure, a designer tub and dual vanity. The secondary bedroom at the from of the house is so large it was an option to be bedroom 5 AND 6! This “bunk room” makes a great bonus room, extra large bedroom or an additional family room. 2 good size secondary bedrooms and an additional full bath complete the second story. Outside, the backyard has a detached patio cover, dramatic waterfall & large island with refrigerator and still has plenty of space on both sides of the home. Easy access to the 241 toll road, highly rated schools, numerous parks with swimming pools, sports fields, pickleball & tennis courts, access to the RSM lake and beach club all make living here easy. Enjoy all of the amenities that RSM has to offer - come and enjoy the summer here in this fantastic property!
