Refreshed with a contemporary, vibrant interior, enhanced LED lighting, and professional staging, this Stella Mare residence in Talega blends style and sophistication with a youthful flair. Nestled on an extra-wide cul-de-sac homesite, the five-bedroom layout is designed for entertaining, relaxation, and family living. The main floor includes a guest suite, a welcoming formal living room, a dining room that opens to an enclosed courtyard with its own fireplace, and a serene side yard surrounded by mature landscaping. The heart of the home features an open-concept kitchen and family room with a breakfast nook. Recently remodeled, the kitchen showcases Montreal quartz countertops, a herringbone backsplash, and rattan bell pendant lighting. It includes a sit-down center island, a KitchenAid appliance package with a 6-burner cooktop, built-in refrigerator, double oven, dishwasher, and microwave. A butler's pantry provides additional storage and a walk-in pantry. The spacious family room is complete with a stacked stone fireplace and built-in audio-video storage. Upstairs, an oversized loft serves as an ideal recreation center, surrounded by three guest bedrooms. Two bedrooms, currently used as offices, share a dual-sink Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the other guest bedroom enjoys an ensuite bathroom. The primary suite offers serene views of the surrounding hills and trees, a private balcony, and a recently updated bathroom with white shaker cabinetry, his and her vanities, a soaking tub, a walk-in shower, and an oversized walk-in closet. Also on this level is a laundry room with a utility sink. The exterior is enhanced with interlocking pavers, high-quality artificial turf, and mature plants, creating a soothing, tranquil environment. Additional features include a whole-house re-pipe, a 3-car garage with storage and epoxy-finished floors, and a leased water softener and reverse osmosis system. The home is walking distance to Tierra Grande Swim Center and the Red Barn Sports Park, and a short distance to Talega's championship golf course, the Talega trailhead, and the Talega Swim & Athletic Club, and just minutes from San Clemente's beaches and pier.
