Tucked beneath a canopy of trees and nestled in the heart of one of Orange County’s most coveted gated communities, this upstairs studio retreat in Coto de Caza offers a rare blend of charm, simplicity, and serenity. Perched on the second floor and backing to a lush greenbelt, the residence welcomes you with warm wood paneling, vaulted beamed ceilings, and a private balcony that invites you to sip your morning coffee while listening to birdsong. It’s the kind of place that feels like a hideaway—yet just minutes from it all. The efficient kitchenette includes a stainless steel refrigerator, single induction cooktop, and Emeril Lagasse air fryer/toaster oven—perfect for quick meals at home. Just downstairs, a washer and dryer are conveniently located in the garage for tenant use. A dedicated parking space, access to the community pool, and the peace of mind that comes with 24-hour guard-gated security all add to the ease of living here. Even better? All utilities are included—water, electricity, waste management, and high-speed Cox internet—making this a truly turnkey opportunity for someone seeking comfort, convenience, and a connection to nature. Whether you're an artist seeking inspiration, a traveler looking for a peaceful base, or simply someone who values privacy and beauty, this Coto de Caza studio is ready to welcome you home.
