About This Home
As of December 2025Available now! This expanded and updated 3 bed & 2 bathroom home has many modern amenities not found in most homes in the neighborhood. There's a dedicated indoor laundry room, primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom, AC, fireplace, dedicated dining room, and a family/living room. There are newer teak wood floors throughout with ceramic Spanish-looking tile in the bedrooms. There's a 2 car garage, plus a large driveway with room for 4 cars. The home sits on a quiet street (does not connect directly to Placentia) with sidewalks for afternoon strolls, and an ample grassy back yard. All of this is walking distance to El Ranchito, 2145, MoonGoat, and Fermentation Farm, and just four blocks to Fairview Park, and Canyon Park, and its hiking trails and direct access to the Santa Ana River Trail to the beach.
