Property Description

Beautiful Spanish Revival 3BR/1.5BA historic home with permitted 1BR/1BA ADU with its own private yard! Live in one and rent the other, keep a relative close by, or simply maintain a wonderful space for guests, and all just a 5 minute bike ride to the Orange Plaza (aka "The Circle") and Chapman University. Main house has many original features including most hardwood floors, windows, exposed beam ceiling and small decorative fireplace! There's a downstairs bedroom with its own private 1/2 bath, and a full bath with vintage tile upstairs! Both upstairs bedrooms have private balconies (cantilevered supports recently rebuilt) and built-in chests of drawers. Separate formal dining room and breakfast nook, too! Exterior painted in December. Major systems in both the main house and the ADU have been recently updated, including plumbing (new copper/Pex supply lines and drain lines repaired/cleared), updated wiring in the ADU, and new electric panels in the house and ADU, tankless water heaters, and new zoned energy efficient mini-splits for heating/cooling (space-saving ceiling cassettes in the ADU). The ADU was substantially rebuilt within the past several years (with permits), but vintage features such as bath tile and living room/kitchen floor tiles were left intact -- new roof, too!. Separate laundry room for the ADU, and separately metered gas and electricity as well. 50 Amp plug-in for a Level 2 EV charger or RV along with sewer cleanout/RV relief access, too! Mature palm trees in the front, and a giant mature shade tree in the back, along with new sod and fencing complete the picture! Note that square footage for the ADU (approx 500 sq ft) is in addition to the square footage noted for the main house. Call your Realtor today for a showing!
