IT JUST DOES NOT SEEM TO BE POSSIBLE…. What if there was a single-level condo with a Panoramic, 180° east facing, morning sun capturing view that ranged from Saddleback Mountain in the North to the hills of Laguna Niguel in the South? And what if that same view also allowed portions of Lake MV, East Beach, the Oak Preserve and City Lights? Throw in that this home has a street level entry and just 3 stairs to negotiate. How about a remodeled Kitchen complete with granite counters, glass tile backsplash, stylish cabinet doors with soft close feature and drawers with soft close and dovetail joint construction, pull out pantry racks, a double sink and recessed can lights? Naturally, both bathrooms will have been remodeled with tile flooring, tile shower walls, granite counters/backsplash, a convenient wand in each shower, new lighting and new faucets. Certainly double pane, vinyl windows and sliding doors would be a plus, as would textured ceilings, ceiling fans, door casings, crown molding and a level walk to a detached 2 car garage. Triple mirrored closet door in the Primary Bedroom and mirrored bi-fold doors on the Laundry closet would create more light and depth. It goes without saying… this would be the most popular elevation of the most popular floor plan in the tract with a nook that frequently serves as an office freeing a bedroom up from that function, and access through sliding glass doors in both the Living Room and Dining Room to a magical, view balcony where entertaining comes so easily and most naturally. We would need to add in the attractions of living in the resort-like environment of Mallorca with it’s 24/7 manned gate, private beach with picnic tables/bar-b-q’s/Cabana/cordoned off swimming area, 72 boat docks, fishing dock, greenbelt walking trails and 2 fenced pool/spa areas. To add a finishing touch, membership to Lake MV would need to be included where you could swim, boat, fish, play beach volleyball, lounge in the sun or sit back and enjoy the annual fireworks display, the “Summer Sunset Concert Series” or the Summer Movies played at North Beach. How about a second finishing touch? This home would be conveniently located between LA and San Diego, just 20 minutes from John Wayne Airport or several of the world-wide destination beaches along the Orange County Coastline. You might shop/dine at Mission Viejo Mall or hike along the Oso Creek Trail. With today’s prices, how could all of this be possible for less than $1 million?
