Description

This wasn't supposed to be for sale. The sellers poured everything into this glam mid-century remodel, planning to stay, host parties, bike the nearby trails, and unwind at home. Then their dream home came along, and they couldn't say no. Now it's your turn. This single-story pool home features $200K in upgrades, making it a rare exception. Looking for a 4th bedroom to use as an office? There is a small bonus room behind the garage — great for a home office or studio. Located in an established Orange neighborhood with lots of long-term owners and a real sense of community, this home has the 3 L's: Location, light & layout. Quiet yet central, you're minutes from Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, scenic trails, Eisenhower Park, and sought-after schools. Soaring ceilings and abundant natural light create an open, inviting feel — a hallmark of mid-century design. A large front courtyard adds private outdoor space, while the grassy front yard could be enclosed for kids, pets, or a garden. The living room's shiplap ceilings and gas fireplace with fire glass set a sophisticated tone; the step-up dining room nods to its 1960's roots. The remodeled kitchen features matte porcelain counters, induction stove, new stainless fridge/dishwasher, and brass and acrylic hardware, flowing into the family room and outdoor entertaining space. The primary suite feels like a boutique hotel — freestanding soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, heated bidet toilet, smart mirror, terrazzo tile, and a rare walk-in closet. New interior doors and baseboards carry the elevated feel. The secondary bath impresses with a curb-less walk-in shower, new vanity, smart toilet, penny tile, and direct backyard access. The backyard is for entertaining: a retro pool and built-in spa with vintage tile, a water feature, outdoor bar, BBQ area with gas and power, and covered patio — with a pool fence available for safety. Pool filter recently replaced. Other highlights: solar panels that majorly offset high electricity costs plus dual-pane windows, smart blinds, whole-house fan, water softener, EV charging, and attic storage. Finished 2-car garage with epoxied floor, storage room, and laundry sink. Don't miss the hidden door in the third bedroom concealing a secret closet! Beautifully updated while maintaining authentic 1960's character, this is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey single-story home over 1,800 square feet with exceptional hosting space in one of the most central locations of Orange.
