Welcome to 13 Via Acuatica, a beautifully updated upper-level home in the highly desirable Brisa del Lago community of Rancho Santa Margarita. Just steps from Rancho Santa Margarita Lake and the Mercado del Lago shopping center, this charming residence offers the perfect blend of comfort, convenience and Southern California lifestyle. Featuring approximately 918 square feet of living space, this light-filled home showcases soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, an open-concept floor plan, and two private balconies overlooking tree-lined walkways. The remodeled kitchen, just completed in May 2026, features quartz countertops with a full-slab backsplash, new cabinetry, new appliances and a breakfast bar that opens seamlessly to the adjoining dining and living areas. A cozy gas fireplace serves as the focal point of the inviting living space; the living room balcony brings in light & air and is a fine spot to read a book or catch up with friends. The spacious primary suite offers direct access to the balcony shared with the living room, dual closets with built-in organizers, and a newly updated bathroom featuring new cabinetry, countertops, sinks, fixtures and new toilet (May 2026). The versatile loft (could be converted into a second bedroom, adding value) provides the perfect space for a home office, guest room, fitness area, or creative retreat, and includes its own private balcony. Additional highlights in the home include new laminate flooring, recessed lighting throughout, smart home features, a laundry closet, two dedicated parking spaces - a detached one-car garage & a dedicated covered carport + ample guest parking nearby. Brisa del Lago community amenities include a sparkling pool, two spas, RSM Lake access and beautifully maintained grounds. Ideally located near shopping, lakefront dining & entertainment, O'Neill Regional Park, miles of hiking and biking trails, and convenient access to the 241 Toll Road, this home offers an exceptional opportunity to live in one of Rancho Santa Margarita's dreamy lakefront communities.
