About This Home

As of June 2023

It’s hard to imagine that so much old-fashioned charm and contemporary style could be found in such a neat package. Yes, it’s two bedrooms and one bathroom! Yes, it’s next to a well-traveled road. And yes, it’s not a huge lot. But after that, look at the property and the location! Move-in ready! Floor-to-ceiling upgrades and remodels. Hardwood flooring; Ceramic tiles; new Kitchen cabinets; Stainless Steel appliances; Granite-like Counter tops; Crown Molding…the list goes on. The bathroom was included when the upgrades were done; Dual-pane windows; plantation shutters; Central heating; Central air conditioning; space-saving Tankless water heater. All that, and it’s literally walking distance to Downtown Brea and an incredibly wide variety of attractions!….. Hard to beat this location.
