Paid-off solar, a stunning saltwater pool and spa, and an oversized lot set the stage for this beautifully upgraded home in the highly desirable Robinson Ranch community. Perfectly located just a short walk to Robinson Ranch Elementary School, this exceptional property offers the ideal blend of lifestyle, comfort, and thoughtful upgrades. Over the years, the home has been meticulously improved. In 2015, upgrades included all new windows, a smart Nest thermostat system, and attic storage with ladder access in the garage. In 2017, the guest bathroom was fully remodeled with custom tile work, a pocket door, towel warmer, lighting controls, and a walk-in shower with a two-way valve. The outdoor space was also transformed with new landscaping, mature avocado and lemon trees, pavers, and artificial turf, creating a private setting. Additional improvements included the paid-off solar system valued at approximately $30,000, custom laundry shelving and cabinetry, a new garage door, and automated Lutron front window coverings. In 2020, the home continued to evolve with the addition of a beautiful saltwater pool and spa featuring custom stonework and waterfall accents, all controllable through the Pentair app. Other enhancements included upgraded landscape drainage, dimmers throughout, window coverings, recessed LED lighting, and a whole-home Pentair water filtration and softening system. In 2022, the home received a stylish refresh with luxury vinyl plank flooring, new interior paint including doors and hardware, new baseboards, and updated ceiling fans. In 2025, the primary bathroom was completely remodeled with dual sinks, custom cabinetry, designer tile, a pocket door, towel warmer, lighting controls, a lighted mirror, and an oversized soaking tub with a three-way shower/tub valve. The primary and secondary closets feature custom built-ins, and the home was repiped with PEX. Additional enhancements include updated landscaping, a house-mounted speaker system with landscape subwoofer, and a Nest/Google smart doorbell. Residents of Robinson Ranch enjoy a remodeled community pool, pickleball and tennis courts, scenic parks, and greenbelts for children and dogs. Located in Rancho Santa Margarita, one of the safest and most desirable cities in America, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, community, and lifestyle.
