Property Description
This truly is a fairy tale. Transform this Sleeping Beauty into a showstopper! It’s a triple whammy: 1) A Via Paraisa model behind Gate 11, 2) a pristine time capsule, and 3) priced to sell! In my humble opinion, Gate 11 is the best-kept secret in town. It’s like a charming little village tucked away, full of single-family homes with two-car garages. Most residents of this 55+ Prime Time community would say, "I’ve seen it on the map, but I’ve never been there." This quaint enclave truly is the crown jewel of Laguna Woods.
Because of its position on the cul-de-sac, it feels incredibly private. Allowing you to keep the curtains wide open to let in all that glorious natural light. That’s just one of the many reasons this spot stands out. The second reason? Potential: a blank canvas, bursting with possibilities, just waiting for someone to come along and turn it into their castle. Whether you’re dreaming of a serene modern farmhouse, a breezy coastal retreat, or a sleek contemporary masterpiece, it’s ready for its glow-up. This is the ideal setting to let your creativity run wild and design your dream living space.
Now, let’s talk about the extras. There’s a cozy fireplace in the living room—perfect for those chilly nights when you want to curl up with a book or a glass of wine. The spacious bedrooms offer plenty of room to stretch out, while the abundant closet space means you'll never have to fight for storage. The open floorplan keeps things airy and flowing, making it easy to entertain or just relax. And speaking of comfort, dual-paned windows and doors keep the elements out and let the light flood in. A brand-new roof ensures no pesky leaks down the road, so you can rest easy. The primary bath has been upgraded with a wheel-in shower, adding another thoughtful touch to this already fantastic space. Even a micro wet bar as a funky conversation area. So, come on by and see why this slice of paradise behind Gate 11 isn’t just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive. Bring your imagination, your vision, and, yes, your checkbook. With this much potential and at this price, you're not just buying a property; you're buying the dream you’ve always imagined—just waiting to be made real.
