About This Home

As of June 2026

Full of personality and brimming with potential, this storybook blue cottage is a rare find in the heart of Fontana's established Laurel Avenue corridor. Set on a generous 10,000 square foot lot, this 942 sq ft home offers the kind of outdoor space that's nearly impossible to find at this price point, with room to expand, entertain, or invest. The covered front porch welcomes you with classic charm, complete with hanging planters and porch swings that give the property undeniable curb appeal. Inside, the bright living room features tile flooring, a cozy brick fireplace, and large windows dressed in flowing curtains that fill the space with natural light. The galley-style kitchen is well-appointed with granite countertops, white cabinetry, a stainless steel French door refrigerator, and a gas range perfect for any home cook. The home is currently configured as one bedroom with a flex room that offers strong potential to serve as a second bedroom, office, or hobby space. The updated bathroom features wood-look flooring, a walk-in shower, and a cabinet vanity. Step outside and the true value of this property reveals itself, with a large brick paver patio, a detached red barn-style storage shed, mature trees, rose bushes, and a fully enclosed yard with ample parking along the long driveway. The property also includes central A/C and plenty of room to explore ADU potential on the expansive lot. Whether you're a first-time buyer, an investor, or simply someone who wants space to breathe, this charming Fontana cottage delivers character, comfort, and opportunity all in one.
