About This Home
Welcome to 1121 E Elm Street — a reimagined single-story, 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom dream residence in the vibrant heart of Brea, bordering Fullerton. Tastefully renovated with no expense spared, this rare gem effortlessly blends modern elegance with refined functionality, all while maintaining its character and charm—framed by a picturesque backdrop of serene mountain views that glow at sunset. Here, you'll truly enjoy a lifestyle designed for elevated living. Situated on an expansive 9,450 sq ft lot large enough for a pool or ADU, the home stuns with a showpiece open-concept kitchen featuring a 9-foot double waterfall quartz island, custom slim shaker cabinetry with concealed countertop appliance storage, a custom built-in dining bench with additional storage, a second prep/bar sink, and a professional-grade 36 inch 6-burner stove—an ultimate space for both entertaining and everyday luxury. Natural light pours in through brand-new dual pane windows and glass doors, while soaring vaulted ceilings enhance the sense of openness and tranquility throughout this south-facing property. Both bathrooms have been beautifully transformed with hand-selected designer tile and finishes that evoke spa-like serenity. Step into your private backyard retreat, where indoor and outdoor living are perfectly integrated with new landscaping, mature citrus trees including orange and Meyer lemon, rosemary, and a detached bonus studio—ideal for a home office, gym, or creative haven. Practicality meets peace of mind with a new multi-station sprinkler timer, modern irrigation system, and extensive upgrades including a brand new expanded concrete driveway large enough for potential RV/camper van parking, new 200A electrical panel and updated wiring (2025), new tankless water heater (2025), new roof (2023), all new ABS drains (2021) and updated copper pipes, new AC coil (2025), and more. Enjoy Brea’s top-rated schools as well as unmatched convenience with premier dining, shopping, entertainment, and activities just minutes away including Brea Mall, Downtown Brea, Brea Marketplace, Brea Gateway Center, Village at La Floresta, Union Plaza, and more. Take a stroll across the street to Craig Regional Park for scenic trails or a peaceful walk around the lake. With walkable streets and easy access to the 57 freeway, this is North Orange County living at its finest—where elevated design meets everyday ease in a sought-after location that truly has it all. ~Video Tour: youtu.be/QlpP7V4P2K0~
