18576 Palm St Fountain Valley, CA 92708

Agent Remarks: “Can’t wait to get home.” If your address is 18576 Palm Street in Fountain Valley (less than four miles from the ocean), that phrase will be a recurring thought, for good reason. Pleasing aesthetics, ultimate comfort, and modern convenience all come together in this utterly delightful home. There’s lots to admire as you arrive-manicured landscaping, big green lawn, wide driveway, three-car garage, and a gated, lattice-covered courtyard. Step inside and discover the light, space, charm, and warmth of this turn-key home. A big family room features a fireplace with ceiling height stone surround, handsome wood floors, and a slider leading to your amazing backyard (more on that in a moment). An exceptional kitchen fitted with plenty of cabinetry and recently updated with gleaming granite countertops and stainless steel appliances (including a trash compactor), is ideal for the cooks in the family who can easily chat with family and friends seated in the dining area or at the long peninsula/breakfast bar. A pass-through window gives you a glimpse of a beautiful, high-ceilinged multi-purpose space that can serve as media room, game room, or used as a private guest suite with access to a ¾ bathroom. At the other side of the home, the primary bedroom will make your heart sing, not only because it includes a phenomenal, elegantly updated ensuite bathroom, but because just outside the big slider a sparkling salt water pool and spa invite you to take a morning dip. Your fully enclosed backyard, with multiple access points from the home, is a veritable utopia—room to dine, play, relax, or prepare a feast. (A gas line is available for your barbecue.) There’s a lot of beauty here, and it isn’t only skin deep. Some features you may not see but will appreciate: owned solar electric system; solar hot water; water softener; NEW 200 amp electrical panel; NEW furnace; and ducting with HEPA filtration. There is, of course, a life beyond your lovely and very desirable neighborhood. For those inclined toward pedal-powered transport, bike paths along the Talbert channel can take you within sight of the Pacific in a few minutes. Nearby you’ll find plenty of shopping and dining, parks, recreation, and some of the highest rated schools in California, ranking from 9.5-9.9 out of 10 based on standardized test scores. Courreges Roch Elementary is only a couple blocks away. And let’s not forget the beautiful blue sea and the sands of Huntington State Beach minutes from your front door.
