Stop scrolling! This is one of Orange County's most elusive Mid-Century Modern homes. This is your chance to explore a stunning, historically significant property that has remained largely unseen. Don't miss this rare opportunity to witness unparalleled design and architectural brilliance firsthand. Available for the first time in 69 years is the original and only Mid-Century Modern floor plan, built in the Rossmoor community by the legendary designer Ross Cortese. This home was purchased directly from the builder in 1957 & later acquired by a contractor in 2024, who lovingly restored it to its former glory. While crews were busy unearthing the home from behind overgrown trees & shrubs, the interior was upgraded to feature today's modern amenities such as dual pane windows, central air + heat, copper plumbing, a new 200 amp main electrical panel with additional sub-panel at the garage, and "wire ready" E.V. charging station. The footprint, integrity, and architecture of the home remain, but now feature top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, custom tri-folding doors, lighting from Pottery Barn, LVP Gemcore flooring with a stone composite backing, Trex decking, porcelain quartz countertops, and so much more. The contractor spared no expense in restoring this home, preserving its original architectural features, and making it a showpiece. Oh, and do not be fooled by the location! Rossmoor Way used to be the primary entry point to the Rossmoor community; however, the widespread use of freeways has altered the majority of the community's driving routes, leading to Wallingsford Road, St. Cloud, and Montecito Road becoming the main thoroughfares. Rossmoor Way has become a very quiet street, with minimal through traffic, but it remains one of the most beautiful streets, featuring its entry gate with the Iconic "R" as a focal point, and the mature trees at the center island. Today's occasional traffic along Rossmoor Way typically consists of children on bicycles or people out for a walk. Crossing guards sit at each end of the street on school days, assisting at the crosswalks, and maintaining a tranquil & quiet environment for all to enjoy.

Buyers are advised to investigate the conditions and suitability of all aspects of the property, including permits but not limited to the foregoing.

This iconic Rossmoor home has a "Mid-Century Modern" design & is situated on an 8,400 sq. ft. lot at the corner of Rossmoor Way and Weatherby Road; this was one of the original "Model homes" built by Ross Cortese, the original developer for the community of Rossmoor in Orange County, CA. The "Starlite" model was modern in its design and concept in 1957, offering perimeter forced air heating, Van Luit hand-painted wallpaper that could be customized to fit your color scheme, tall windows, & an electric kitchen. While the home is mostly original, the furnace was replaced approximately two years ago, & in keeping with the aesthetics of the home, the vents are situated at the perimeter of each room, just as the original floor plan did. The home still has the exposed beams in the living room & the custom fireplace personalized to fit the style of the Starlite model. Come see this original Rossmoor "model home" & enjoy the timeless Mid-Century lines, the abundance of natural light it offers & the wonderful 1950 vibes of a bygone era.
