About this home

Single story and spacious, and uncrowded on a large corner lot, this updated and expanded home in coveted Eastgate is one you can enjoy for the rest of your life! In the past five years, only six homes within the Bell Intermediate School boundary (a perfect 10/10 on GreatSchools!) have been offered with over 2,500 sq. ft. on a single level — and this home delivers nearly 2,800! Sitting proudly on a large interior corner lot among well-kept, pride-of-ownership homes, this lovingly maintained, thoughtfully customized and expanded residence offers a scale and versatility rarely found in the neighborhood. The curb appeal is delightful with espresso-colored 2-car garage, oversized driveway with bonus off-street parking, and a bountiful lawn and flora including specimen-quality juniper. The courtyard entry leads to a spacious living room with fireplace, open to a generous kitchen with center island and abundant cabinetry. Spaces filled with natural light highlight new paint and modern wide-plank flooring for a fresh, elegant atmosphere. A formal dining room flows into a massive rear family room with a second fireplace all its own — a haven of relaxing privacy, ideal for entertaining as well. Four well-proportioned bedrooms and two baths include a primary suite with newly remodeled direct-access bath. And an inside laundry room is a luxury everyone can appreciate! Out back, a beautiful new patio cover shelters a just-right outdoor space, a canvas for endless possibilities. What’s your vision? Hardscape and firepit? Citrus trees and raised herb garden? A hammock and book nook? And on top of all this awesome, this sanctuary is walkable to top-rated elementary, middle, and high schools, less than ½ mile to Chapman Sports Park, and just over 10 minutes to Long Beach Airport or Huntington Harbor for kayaking, beach days, or Bolsa Chica Wetlands hikes. This rare combination of size, thoughtful layout, and prime location in one of West Garden Grove’s most sought-after neighborhoods makes 12202 Wutzke Street a must-see.

Condition Rating
Good

The property, built in 1959, has undergone significant updates within the last five years, including a modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, black countertops, and stainless steel appliances, as well as a newly remodeled primary bathroom with subway tile and contemporary fixtures. New wide-plank flooring and fresh paint contribute to a move-in ready interior. However, the presence of visible window air conditioning units suggests a lack of central air conditioning, which is a major system deficiency preventing an 'Excellent' rating, despite the extensive cosmetic renovations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Size & Single Story Layout: This home offers nearly 2,800 sq. ft. on a single level, a rare and highly sought-after feature in the Eastgate neighborhood, providing ample living space.
Prime Location & Top-Rated Schools: Situated in coveted Eastgate, the property boasts walkability to top-rated elementary, middle (Bell Intermediate 10/10), and high schools, along with proximity to Chapman Sports Park and coastal attractions.
Extensive Updates & Modern Interior: The residence features recent updates including new paint, modern wide-plank flooring, a generous kitchen with a center island, and a newly remodeled primary bath, contributing to a fresh and elegant atmosphere.
Spacious & Versatile Living Areas: The thoughtful layout includes a large living room with a fireplace, a formal dining room, and a massive rear family room with a second fireplace, offering diverse spaces for relaxation and entertaining.
Excellent Curb Appeal & Large Corner Lot: The property benefits from delightful curb appeal, an oversized driveway with bonus off-street parking, and a large interior corner lot, enhancing its presence and functionality.

Cons

Age of Property & Potential for Older Systems: Built in 1959, while updated, the core infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may be original or require future maintenance if not explicitly replaced.
Lack of Mentioned Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not specify the presence of a central air conditioning system, which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer periods.
Limited Bathroom Count for Size: With 4 bedrooms and nearly 2,800 sq. ft., the presence of only two bathrooms might be perceived as a limitation for larger families or those who frequently host guests.
