Description

A 1955 ranch frozen in time original hardwood floors still hiding under the carpet sitting on nearly 13,000 square feet of park-like possibility. She's an untouched gem, and she's ready for someone with vision. Tucked away on a beautiful, tree-lined street in the unincorporated heart of Santa Ana, this single-level charmer offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,440 square feet of genuine character. But the real magic? That almost 13,000 square foot lot. This isn't your postage-stamp parcel this is room to dream. So go ahead and imagine it: picking avocados from your own tree on a lazy Sunday morning. Room for the pool. Room for the ADU. Room for the bigger home you've always wanted all on one extraordinary lot. Expand the footprint, build up, spread out, do all three. This is your blank canvas, and you're not paying for someone else's "upgrades" or living with someone else's taste. You're buying the freedom to build your dream, exactly as you picture it. And oh, that yard. A true park-like retreat with a mature avocado tree, navel and Valencia orange, pomegranate, and more your very own grove waiting for the harvest. The only updates? Fresh kitchen counters, windows replaced and a new water heater . Everything else is a clean slate for your vision. The practical perks deliver too: RV access, a 2-car garage, and a location that puts you close to everything that matters. All the major freeways (55, 22, 91, 5, 405) are minutes away, with Old Towne Orange, Old Town Tustin, and all your favorite shopping and dining just around the corner. This little ranch home is what dreams ar
