About 515 Traverse Dr

Location, Location, LOCATION! Don't miss this thoughtfully remodeled home located in Del Cerro, a hidden gem of a community that is nestled in the triangle of the 405, 55 and 73 freeways. The unique curb appeal immediately catches your eye and draws you to want to enter this special home. Upon entering the privacy gate, you are welcomed by a charming courtyard perfect for entertaining. This home was initially remodeled in 2005 down to the framing including electrical, plumbing, roof, HVAC, and windows, with a refresh in 2021 to include paint, flooring, a new water heater, refrigerator, quartz counters and a stunning backsplash...where the amateur chef can take center stage! The end result is an open family room, kitchen and dining area for all to enjoy! To complete the reimagined first floor, the Master bedroom has a bath with a free-standing jetted tub, a walk-in shower and two separate vanities. French doors take you to a small, fenced area for relaxing before going to bed. Across the hall, you will find another bedroom with an en suite bath room and steam room with access to the backyard. The third downstairs bedroom is currently being used as an office. To complete the interior, there is an upstairs room that has a large screen for movie nights or can serve as a guest suite since there is another bathroom and shower for convenience. In addition to the courtyard in front of the home, there is a large backyard completely redone with artificial turf along with a concrete area for the Hot Tub and extra seating. This home is complete... with the added bonus of being freeway close to Orange Counties best beaches, five minutes to John Wayne Airport, and within walking distance to South Coast Plaza, The Camp, The Lab and Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts!
