One of the best-kept secrets in South Orange County! Serene, gated community with lush, landscaped park-like environment, situated around two ponds with waterfalls and a stream running between them. The grounds provide a haven for ducks, egrets, hummingbirds, Monarch butterflies and blue herons. Community pool with patio furniture, umbrellas and bathrooms surrounded by mature trees, creating an absolutely beautiful natural setting. Near the ocean, harbor, beach, and beach towns. Short walk to Pines Park overlooking the ocean. Great access to I-5 and PCH. One of a kind opportunity to own a very unique town-home in the middle of multi-million dollar homes on the bluff of Capo Beach. Two bedrooms plus main floor bonus room(which could be used as office/3rd bedroom-(no closet)/or art room, etc. ). Bonus room also has it's own private patio area. Living/Dining room with fireplace, wall of cabinets, and open to the kitchen area. Gourmet kitchen with breakfast bar, pantry area and wine cooler(which holds 95+/- bottles). Attached 2 car garage with direct access to kitchen/house. Open floor plan with French doors to your private patio for relaxing. Wonder out your back gate to the beautiful inner courtyard to view the grounds and water features or to take a dip in the pool. Large master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, organizer walk-in closet, and a deck for outdoor private enjoyment through a French door. Large master bathroom suite with separate tub and shower, double sinks, window and sky light which opens for venting. Second bedroom features ceiling fan, mirrored closet doors and French door to the deck area. Beautiful upgraded hall bath with walk in shower. Truly a lock and leave as the grounds are maintained by the association. HOA dues cover many items in the community, some of which are gardeners, water-both domestic and grounds-which includes sprinkler system, ponds, pool and it's maintenance, roof/repairs and replacement, exterior maintenance, etc. Easy living with all of the enjoyment of the amenities. This one of a kind opportunity to own a unique property in the community known as Old Mill Pond in Orange County-minutes from the Pacific Ocean, surfing spots, shopping, Dana Point Harbor, Amtrak Station and the San Clemente Outlet Mall-will not last long. It feels like you are in your own private park/resort. Make this your perfect primary residence or a secondary beach home!!!
