Beautifully-turnkey 5 bedroom home in a non-HOA neighborhood in Dana Point. Enjoy indoor/outdoor living with bi-fold doors that extend your family room into the spacious and flat low-maintenance backyard. Live the coastal lifestyle with direct neighborhood path access to Doheny and beyond, as well as the sprawling Creekside Park with basketball court & dog park.

This efficient floorplan has charm and casual elegance throughout. Step onto the classic herringbone tile as you enter the front door and gaze upon your lovely living room fireplace and dining room with french doors that bring in the fresh air and sunshine. The spacious kitchen with stainless appliances and cozy family room look upon the quiet backyard, while opening up the newer bi-fold doors and french doors make the outdoors an extension of your living space. Cook and entertain in the covered outdoor kitchen, complete with built-in grill, sink, ice marker, fridge, bartop seating for 6, and 2 televisions. The extra large lot offers additional room for running around and bonus space between your neighbors for privacy and extra sunshine.

A downstairs bedroom and adjacent 3/4 bath gives you flexibility for a guest room or office while the generous laundry provides a mudroom for extra shoes or when you don't want to bring the beach sand into your main living space - the outdoor shower helps as well. Upstairs has 4 bedrooms, including a private master suite that has Saddleback Mountain views, a large shower and walk-in closet. The three extra bedrooms share a bathroom with a shower/tub.

The front yard is yet another entertaining space where you can practice your putting game, lounge with a beverage, socialize with the neighbors or keep an eye on your family or guests who are playing out front in the street. This non-HOA neighborhood is a vibrant community with social events, mini-parades and more, really solidifying that feeling of home.

This home is the Southern California vibe that you are looking for: indoor/outdoor living; close to the beach, parks and all of the shops and restaurants in the Lantern District, Harbor, San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente and Laguna Beach. Take the trail entrance from the neighborhood for miles upon miles of running/biking/walking throughout the area or use the easy highway access to reach LA, San Diego, the desert or the mountains within just a couple hours. Enjoy all that south Orange County has to offer from your new home.
