About this property
This is one of those homes that simply feels special from the moment you arrive - warm, welcoming, beautifully cared for, and filled with the unmistakable pride of ownership that comes from years of thoughtful improvements and meticulous maintenance. Nestled on a quiet interior cul-de-sac street in a highly sought-after Fountain Valley neighborhood, less than 4 miles to the beach, in the top-rated school zone - Courreges, Fulton & FV High, this 4 bedroom, 2 bath pool home offers 1,675 SQFT on a generous 7,200 SQFT lot with refreshing ocean breezes. The versatile two-story floorplan features 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath on each level, including an oversized downstairs bedroom with bay window, window seat and room for a sitting/retreat area, plus an exceptionally large upstairs bedroom with nearly wall-to-wall mirrored closets.
