55 Via Pausa

There are homes you walk into--and homes that immediately make you exhale.

Perched above the greens of Tijeras Creek Golf Course, this upper-level one-bedroom residence offers something increasingly hard to find in Orange County: a sense of quiet, openness and connection to the outdoors. From the living room and bedroom to the private balcony, peaceful views of the golf course, shimmering ponds and surrounding greenery become part of everyday life.

Inside, the home feels light, bright and thoughtfully designed. An updated kitchen with quartz countertops flows easily into the dining and living areas, while a cozy fireplace adds warmth and character. The updated bathroom, high ceilings and comfortable floor plan make the space feel inviting without asking you to maintain more home than you need. Step outside to the balcony with your morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day as the light settles over the course, or simply enjoy having a view that gives the home a sense of space well beyond its walls.

A detached garage just steps away adds everyday convenience, while Tijeras Creek Villas offers pools, spa, fitness facilities and beautifully maintained grounds. Residents also enjoy the broader SAMLARC lifestyle, including Lago Santa Margarita, the Beach Club and Lagoon, parks, trails, tennis, pickleball and community amenities throughout Rancho Santa Margarita.

Whether you're searching for your first home, an easy Orange County retreat, or a property that combines lifestyle with long-term appeal, this is the kind of place that proves you don't need a lot of square footage to live exceptionally well.

55 Via Pausa isn't about having more. It's about waking up every day to something better.
