A home that redefines the way you live. This single-level estate in the iconic Nellie Gail Ranch offers a seamless blend of thoughtful design, modern functionality, and the relaxed luxury of Southern California living. Set on a tranquil and private half-acre lot, the property invites you into a tropical paradise designed by renowned local architect Mark Scott Associates with lush landscaping, a saltwater pool and spa, and an expansive outdoor living area that feels like an extension of the home itself. Created for both entertaining and everyday comfort, the open-air cabana is equipped with a built-in BBQ, griddle, dual burners, dishwasher, warming drawers, electric heating, garbage disposal, big screen TV, surround sound and its own ¾ bath. This versatile space enhances the home’s 3,217 square feet with an additional 700 square feet of covered living area and offers further potential for conversion into an ADU. Inside, the single-level layout affords ease of living with no interior steps. Cathedral ceilings soar above a light-filled family room and fireplace, while the open-concept kitchen offers a center island bar, breakfast area, and walk-in pantry. The home’s formal entertaining spaces feature art-quality lighting and bifold doors that extend your living space outside. Later, escape to your primary suite with a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, sitting area, and a spa-quality skylit bathroom. Three additional bedrooms are served by two full baths, one Jack-and-Jill. Recent upgrades ensure peace of mind, including a full PEX repipe and a durable smooth-stucco exterior. Equestrian-zoned and located just moments from Nellie Gail’s renowned amenities, including parks, tennis/pickleball courts, hiking trails, and equestrian facilities, this home combines the prestige of a highly desired neighborhood with exceptional convenience. Local shops, restaurants, and theaters are all within walking distance, with close proximity to top-rated schools and freeways make commuting a breeze. More than just a residence, this property invites a lifestyle of privacy and luxury in one of Orange County’s best communities.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
