SINGLE LEVEL LIVING IN RANCHWOOD! Welcome home to 12 Calle Ranchera, a detached 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence offering 1,139 square feet of thoughtfully updated living on a quiet interior street in the heart of Rancho Santa Margarita.

Vaulted ceilings lift the living area, where a fireplace creates a warm gathering spot for quiet evenings and easy entertaining. The updated modern kitchen is a true standout, showcasing white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a blue subway tile backsplash, black hardware, and recessed lighting.

Step outside to a large, open backyard with concrete patio and artificial turf, ready for weekend barbecues, play, gardening, or simply relaxing in the Southern California sunshine. The home is equally appealing as a primary residence or a smart investment.
