Welcome to a piece of history nestled in the heart of the Old Towne Orange historic district – a captivating Craftsman Bungalow built in 1913, boasting the distinguished Mills Act property tax designation. Last year's property tax was only $2,597.74! Proudly preserved and thoughtfully restored, this home stands as a testament to timeless craftsmanship and historical significance. As you approach, the charm of yesteryears beckons you, framed by a classic white picket fence enclosing a shaded front yard and a spacious covered porch, perfect for lazy afternoons. Step inside to discover a world where vintage elegance meets modern convenience. Original wood-frame windows, painstakingly refurbished to include new rope and weights, invite natural light to dance across the original glass panes, while antique wood-frame screens and shutters adhere to the essence of the era. A foundation replacement in 2009 ensures structural integrity, while a new roof, central AC & heating, and front/rear sprinkler system installed in 2010 offer comfort and peace of mind. A charming Buggy Barn, constructed in 2011, doubles as a two-car garage or a potential ADU conversion, complemented by a picturesque red-brick patio and parking area, perfect for outdoor entertainment or relaxation. Inside, new tile adorns the kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom floors, while original wood floors gleam with the warmth of history, having been fully restored. Modern comforts blend seamlessly with historic charm, with the addition of ceiling fans, new lighting fixtures, and a host of upgrades in 2019 including interior and exterior painting, plumbing replacement, and the installation of a classic claw foot tub with an exposed pipe shower system. A new bathroom vanity with a classic apron sink and marble top, along with antique push-button light switches throughout, exude vintage elegance. In 2020, the kitchen received a makeover, including new dishwasher and stove, and stainless steel apron sink. A new water heater ensures ample hot water, while an antique bathroom window adds a touch of authenticity to this timeless abode. Located within walking distance to the iconic Plaza Square Park/Orange Circle, prestigious Chapman University, and the charming Orange Library, this home offers not just a residence, but a lifestyle rich in history, culture, and community.
