About This Home

As of May 2014

Expanded and charming 4 bedroom/2 bathroom home north of Fair in College Park. Conveniently located minutes to the freeways, OCC, the OC Fairgrounds, and the conveniences of Harbor Blvd. A one-owner home until 2010, lovingly enjoyed by the current owners, this Cinderella Homes plan 77 features great flexibility. A permitted 330 sq. foot A-frame addition adds a huge family room with spiral staircase to a finished attic (which would make a great play room for the kids, artist's studio, or office retreat). The 4th bedroom is currently being used as an extension of the living room, but could also be a formal dining room. Hardwood floors throughout with linoleum in bathrooms and kitchen. There's also a wood burning brick fireplace. Scraped ceilings and newer forced air heating are among the updates. The back yard is ready for your finishing touches and features many mature fruit trees (avocado, grapefruit, lemon, lime, orange, and persimmon). Remodel like many neighbors have and add value to the home or enjoy the home's vintage appeal.
