Same family since 2002, and you can feel the care the moment you walk in. This detached, single-level home in Palmia's Vistas neighborhood has no shared walls, no steps inside, and about 1,402 square feet with 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and an attached 2-car garage with direct access.

High ceilings, crown molding, plantation shutters and recessed lighting keep the rooms bright all day. The living room centers on a gas fireplace and opens to the dining area and kitchen, where white cabinetry, granite counters and a breakfast bar give you plenty of room to cook and gather.

The primary suite has a walk-in closet and its own bath with double sinks, a soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. The second bedroom is ready for guests, a home office or hobbies, and the laundry room has built-in cabinets and a utility sink.

Then step outside. A large covered brick patio runs across the back of the home, framed by mature palms and greenery. It's the spot for morning coffee, a good book, and dinner with friends on warm evenings.

Palmia is a guard-gated 55+ community. Club Palmia brings a resort-style pool and spa, tennis and pickleball courts, an 18-hole putting course, a fitness center, and a full calendar of clubs and activities. Membership in the Lake Mission Viejo Association adds the lake's beaches, boating and fishing, just minutes from home.
