Peaceful suburban living close to Santa Ana's attractions
Morrison Park’s suburban feel is undeniable: meticulously groomed yards and neighborhood parks tucked in between spacious midcentury ranch-style homes. Residents enjoy the family-friendly setting as the neighborhood continues to develop. “It’s a nice diverse neighborhood. There are a lot of residents who have been there for many years and some newcomers,” says Realtor Sarah Covarrubias who works with Seven Gables Real Estate and has over two decades of experience in the area. The established suburb has been built-up to keep things convenient, boasting newer townhouses and large shopping plazas. A mere 3 miles from downtown Santa Ana, the distance to the city center and attractions like Disneyland also brings new neighbors to the growing community.

Midcentury homes and newer townhouses in demand
In Morrison Park, neighbors stroll along sidewalks shaded by palm and eucalyptus trees. They pass by landscaped yards with backyard pools and midcentury architecture. “They have houses built in the 1960s and ‘70s. The majority are quite a few large — houses with four and five bedrooms,” Covarrubias says. Other than these ranch-style homes, there are Tudor Revivals and Mediterranean homes. Ranch-style homes range from $650,000 to $1.5 million, while Mediterranean houses range from $1 million to $1.9 million. “Home prices have increased a lot at Morrison Park partly because of its perfect location,” says Pam Xu, broker at Sunpride Realty and longtime Southern California resident. “Santa Ana is known for the masonry of old houses and their good yard sizes; however, many of these homes need remodeling and upkeep. It’s another reason people are turning to townhouses. These homes are newer and although smaller in size, they are also a bit more affordable compared to single-family homes.” Prospective homebuyers may find various townhouses with Homeowners Association (HOA) fees that range from $750,000 to $900,000.

Morrison Park's namesake and more recreation
The neighborhood’s namesake park, Morrison Park, has basketball, tennis courts and more. “It's a sweet little park with a playground and a field. A lot of neighbors bring their kids. It’s kind of cool because it’s situated among homes, so it has a family neighborhood feel,” Covarrubias says. Also located in the neighborhood, Eldridge Park features walking paths shaded by plentiful trees. Nearby Riverview Park offers the 18-hole, public Riverview Golf Course for golfers to perfect their swings. At Santiago Park, people can practice their aim on the archery range or stroll along paved trails lined with birch trees.
