Welcome to this beautifully updated, light-filled carriage-style end unit in the desirable Bella Ventana community of Rancho Santa Margarita. With no neighbors above or below, this private and peaceful home features an attached one-car garage with built-ins and generous storage, plus an additional designated parking space.
