Beautifully positioned on a large homesite, this exceptionally private home in Talega of San Clemente’s gated Careyes enclave is ready to embellish your lifestyle. A setting at the end of an intimate single-loaded cul-de-sac with only one direct neighbor sets the scene for exclusive living that easily transitions from indoors to out. Manicured landscaping and custom hardscaping complement grounds that measure nearly 11,892 square feet, allowing generous space for a gated entry courtyard with fire pit and fountain. The side yard welcomes outdoor dining on a large patio with fountain, and the backyard redefines Southern California living with a lavish pool and spa, fire bowls, covered patio, built-in BBQ island, and an open-air fireplace surround by built-in seating. The Good Life continues in an extraordinary home of approximately 5,061 square feet that exhibits a towering two-story entry with beamed wood ceiling and skylights. Five extra-spacious ensuite bedrooms, most with customized walk-in closets, and five- and one-half baths make it easy for residents and guests to enjoy comfort and privacy. A casita is located just off the courtyard, and the primary suite presents an enviable main-floor setting, allowing the residence to live like a single-level design. In the master bedroom, enjoy a fireplace, two walk-in closets and a marble shower. Main living areas luxuriously accommodate easy everyday living, impromptu get-togethers, and elegant evening parties in areas that include a formal living room with French doors opening to the courtyard, a formal dining room with wood-beamed ceiling, and a second-level bonus room with Juliet balcony. United as one seamless living space, the family room and kitchen present an exceptionally spacious setting complete with a fireplace, built-in entertainment center, breakfast room, and a butler’s pantry with built-in Brisas wine cooler. The kitchen showcases quartz countertops, a marble backsplash, walk-in pantry, and premium appliances including a Thermador Professional range and a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator. Additional appointments are led by Richard Marshall wood flooring, custom crown molding, owned solar power, Ring security cameras, an attached three-car garage, and a large laundry room with sink and refrigerator space. One of only a few gated neighborhoods in Talega, Careyes was built by Brookfield Residential to exacting standards of excellence and is a short stroll to Vista del Mar K-8 school, parks and more.
