About 53 Baliza
Exceptional corner-lot pool home in a coveted neighborhood in Rancho Mission Viejo offering an extraordinary blend of luxury, privacy, and resort living. A tranquil courtyard entry sets the tone as you open the door to soaring ceilings and walls of windows bathing the home in natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere. The expansive great room is anchored by a stunning plaster-cast fireplace beautifully framed by plantation-shuttered windows that are carried throughout the home. The chef's kitchen showcases white shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, and professional-grade stainless steel appliances featuring a 6 burner range with commercial style hood with heat lamps. Thoughtfully complemented by a butler's pantry, generous walk-in pantry, and a tucked-away pocket office with built-in desk—creating the perfect space to work from home. Designed to embrace California's indoor-outdoor lifestyle, multiple outdoor access points—including an expansive double sliding glass door from the great room and dining room slider, both to the California Room, plus a French door from the pocket office to the spectacular backyard beyond. The resort-inspired backyard is a rare nearly 7,500 square foot sanctuary featuring a sparkling saltwater PebbleTec pool and spa, mature citrus and pomegranate trees, drought tolerant landscaping and an abundance of remaining outdoor space for a sprawling lawn, children's play area, or even a future guest house. A desirable first-floor bedroom and full bathroom provide exceptional flexibility while upstairs are 2 secondary bedrooms that share a bath, plus a generous loft/optional fifth bedroom. Privately positioned, the luxurious primary suite is a peaceful retreat where sweeping hillside and sunset views become part of your daily routine. The spa-inspired bath features dual granite-topped vanities, an oversized walk-in shower with designer tile, a relaxing soaking tub, and the rare convenience of dual walk-in closets. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated with comfort, efficiency, and lasting quality in mind. Notable upgrades include plantation shutters throughout, a 16-panel owned solar system, whole-house water softener with carbon backwash filtration, reverse osmosis drinking water system servicing both the kitchen and refrigerator, Tesla-compatible Rivian EV charger, glass storm door with screen insert, and installed bird-proof netting. All within amenity rich Rancho Mission Viejo just 15 min from the coast.
