About This Home

As of November 2025

Tucked into the foothills of Orange, this thoughtfully remodeled single-level home is a rare find. Enter through a charming Hacienda-style courtyard with no steps from the driveway to the front door, ensuring easy access for all. Inside, the spacious open-concept great room features a cozy brick fireplace and flows seamlessly into a stunning chef’s kitchen. Recently updated, the light and bright kitchen boasts sleek black appliances, crisp white cabinetry, gray quartz countertops, self-closing drawers and cabinets, and a generous center island—ideal for both cooking and gathering. The adjacent dining area comfortably accommodates large groups, making it perfect for entertaining. From the great room, step out onto a large, step-free patio—perfect for relaxing, dining al fresco, or hosting guests. A central hallway leads to three spacious bedrooms and two remodeled bathrooms, including a stylish guest bath and a beautifully upgraded primary ensuite. The home is move-in ready, featuring manufactured wood flooring and fresh interior paint throughout. The air conditioning and heater have also been recently updated. Situated on a generous 12,600 sq ft lot, the backyard is a private retreat with mature fruit trees— many different varieties of citrus, plus avocado and fig—along with city and hillside views, multiple sitting areas, and meandering garden pathways that invite you to explore and unwind. Additional highlights include ample driveway parking with RV parking. Conveniently located near top-rated schools, shopping, and with easy freeway access, this home combines comfort, style, and a prime location, - truly offering the best of Orange living.
