Located in one of Mission Viejo’s most desirable neighborhoods, 26661 Carretas Drive offers a rare opportunity to secure a well priced home with strong upside potential. Recent matching floor plans in the neighborhood have sold or are currently offered between $1.32M and $1.85M, positioning this property as an exceptional value. The home’s major systems including the roof, plumbing, and electrical are in working condition, allowing a buyer to move in and enjoy the home immediately. Whether the plan is to live comfortably as is, make selective cosmetic updates over time, or pursue a full scale renovation, the flexibility is entirely yours. The home features five bedrooms and three bathrooms with a spacious, light filled layout that already flows extremely well, eliminating the need to remove or relocate walls. The open floor plan creates a natural connection between living spaces, while the kitchen integrates seamlessly with the rest of the home, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
