About This Home

As of March 2025

Welcome to this single-story home in the heart of Orange! With a charming vinyl picket fence and an enchanting garden arch that leads you up the walkway, setting the stage for the warmth and character found inside. Originally designed as a four-bedroom home, one room was thoughtfully removed to create a stunning entertainer’s kitchen—both beautiful and highly functional. This space is truly the heart of the home, where family and friends will naturally gather. Raised ceilings enhance the spacious feel, while an array of features caters to the home chef. A beautiful large island with granite countertops, two sinks, and two dishwashers make hosting a breeze. Stainless-steel appliances include top-of-the-line GE Monogram refrigerator and gas cooktop, double ovens with a useful warming drawer. Custom maple cabinets, pull-out trash bins, a pantry with convenient pull-out drawers, and glass shelving for elegant display. An abundance of storage, recessed lighting and two skylights—one motorized—flood the space with natural light. For the wine enthusiast, a dedicated wine and beverage center with a wine cooler, granite countertop, and built-in wine rack. Adjacent to the kitchen, a flexible space with a cozy gas fireplace and ceiling fan can serve as a dining area or family room, with direct access to the backyard. A spacious living room with pocket doors offers additional privacy while overlooking the backyard. Down the hall, you’ll find a full guest bath with a shower/tub, a closet and a place to store your linens. The two front bedrooms feature ceiling fans, closets, and views of the front yard. The primary bedroom is boasting a custom-designed walk-in closet by California Closets, tile flooring, and private backyard access through French doors. A permitted addition to the home is the en-suite bathroom which is expansive and spa-like, featuring an oversized jacuzzi tub, a large walk-in shower with multiple shower-heads, dual vanities, and plenty of storage. The backyard is low-maintenance with mature landscaping and a covered patio—perfect for outdoor entertaining. The garage is equally impressive, offering a newer insulated door with a quiet motor, ample storage, a utility sink, and space for all your DIY projects. Additional upgrades include a tankless water heater (located in the attic) and energy-efficient double-pane windows. In close proximity to schools, restaurants, shopping and more. Hurry, and schedule your showing today. No HOA.
