Blending modern design, smart technology, and resort-style amenities, this residence offers elevated living in one of South Orange County’s most desirable neighborhoods.
Inside, soaring ceilings with striking black beams and abundant natural light create an impressive first impression. The main living areas feature new marble flooring, a redesigned fireplace with custom stonework, recessed lighting, and new sliding glass doors and windows. The open layout flows into a fully remodeled kitchen with porcelain countertops, a 6-burner professional range with pot filler, modern glass cabinetry, new hardware, upgraded sink, and new dishwasher — ideal for everyday living and entertaining.
Extensive upgrades include high-end luxury vinyl plank flooring, a wine cabinet with accent lighting, wet bar, upgraded electrical, and full home repiping.

The main level offers a bedroom and fully upgraded bath, plus a separate laundry room — perfect for guests or flexible living. Upstairs are two en-suite bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, plantation shutters, a sitting area, and walk-in closets. Bathrooms have updated fixtures and new shower valves, and major systems including HVAC and garage components have been recently serviced.
The backyard is designed for California living with refreshed landscaping, new irrigation, lighting, and space to relax or entertain.
Residents of Dove Canyon enjoy access to a pool, spa, tennis courts, parks, scenic trails, and the option to join the private Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course — all near top-rated schools, shopping, dining, toll roads, low taxes, and no Mello-Roos.
Turnkey, tech-forward, and set in one of Orange County’s premier gated communities — this is Dove Canyon living at its finest.
