Only steps from the lake, this Hidden Lakes residence enjoys a setting defined by water, light, and a quiet sense of space. The home sits just one property away from the shoreline, where gentle lake views and open skies create a calm backdrop to everyday life. Inside, the home presents an opportunity rather than a finished product, a true blank canvas ready to be reimagined. The layout is generous and functional, offering the kind of proportions that allow for thoughtful design and modern updates. A bedroom and full bathroom on the main level provide flexibility for guests, extended family, or a future office or studio.

Continue through the second level, you’ll find two additional bedrooms adjoined by a jack and jill bathroom. While the home invites a new vision, several important improvements have already been completed.

The home’s piping was also updated approximately seven years ago, ensuring that key infrastructure elements have already been addressed. Beyond the home itself, Hidden Lakes offers a lifestyle rarely found in Orange County. The community clubhouse is centered around a remarkable sand beach lagoon built directly into the lake, creating a setting that feels more like a resort than a neighborhood. Residents enjoy three separate pools, pickleball and tennis courts, a full gym, and gathering spaces designed for both recreation and relaxation. For those looking to design something entirely their own, this property offers a rare starting point. A home with strong fundamentals, a beautiful lake setting, and the freedom to create something truly special.
