Equally impressive is the home’s four ensuite bedrooms - a rare and desirable feature in Old Towne. Each bathroom is redesigned with its own distinctive finishes, custom tilework, illuminated mirrors, designer fixtures, cabinetry, and luxurious showers or tub. An airy sitting room with sliders to the backyard separates the primary bedroom from the front three bedrooms.

The exceptional backyard is designed for year-round enjoyment, featuring a grassy lawn, built-in barbecue with bar seating, white brick gas fireplace, updated hardscape, redwood fencing, lush landscape, and a mature orange tree. Every inch of this property has been thoughtfully transformed, and is also pre-plumbed for a future spa or spool. Adding incredible versatility, the beautifully finished original garage features custom cabinetry with refrigeration, quartz countertops, TV with soundbar, recessed lighting, and a sliding barn door. Additional highlights include fully paid solar, new HVAC, whole-home audiovisual wiring, a new 200-amp electrical panel, two tankless water heaters, custom window coverings, bedroom ceiling fans, and convenient interior laundry. Ideally situated near Chapman University and ’The Circle’s’ beloved shops and restaurants, this extraordinary home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy the character of a classic Craftsman with the comfort and sophistication of modern living.
