Overview

Welcome to 23247 Villena — a truly exceptional retreat perched above it all. This impeccably maintained Monterey floor plan offers 1,818 square feet of refined living, showcasing breathtaking panoramic city lights and Saddleback Mountain views from one of the most elevated and scenic locations in Casta del Sol. Rarely available, this sought-after model blends timeless elegance with thoughtful upgrades designed for both comfort and style. Originally a three-bedroom residence, the home has been beautifully reimagined into a spacious two-bedroom layout, creating an expansive and light-filled family room—perfect for entertaining or relaxing. The flexible design allows for an easy conversion back to a three-bedroom home if desired. The Mediterranean-inspired kitchen is standout, featuring rich tile finishes, a custom backsplash, and high-end appliances, including a refrigerator. It opens seamlessly into the oversized family room, making it ideal for gatherings both intimate and grand. The downstairs primary suite is a serene haven, complete with a sliding glass door that opens to the rear patio—where sweeping views provide a stunning backdrop morning and night. The spacious primary bathroom offers dual sinks and ample comfort. Upstairs, a private bedroom/loft with its own full bathroom provides a perfect guest retreat, office, or creative space. And then—the views. Commanding, unobstructed, and unforgettable. From sparkling city lights to rolling valleys and majestic mountains, this home captures it all. Located within the beautifully landscaped 484-acre Casta del Sol community, residents enjoy mature trees, gentle hills, and an unparalleled resort-style lifestyle. The association offers two recreation centers with amenities including pickleball, tennis, pools, spa/hot tubs, fitness center, lawn bowling, sport courts, clubhouse, billiard room, and more. Front yard maintenance, exterior painting, trash service, and grounds upkeep are all included. As a 55+ community, residents also enjoy membership to Lake Mission Viejo, offering picnic areas, swimming, fishing, and additional recreational facilities. This is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle defined by views, comfort, and community. ?
