Amazing remodelled home in a quiet and convenient community! The owner spent $250,000 in a complete upgrade, creating a single-story home with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms that offers unparalleled comfort! Master&Second bedrooms face east, basking in the morning sun and enjoying beautiful backyard views. Another suite with a bathroom opens directly into the side yard. The kitchen boasts lots of wood cabinetry and a huge island with a beverage fridge – every wife's dream. A crystal chandelier above the dining table creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. A brand-new handcrafted stone fireplace, waterproofed flooring throughout, most doors and windows and insulation, new AC ducts, new water pipes&main plumbing, new bathrooms, new lighting fixtures, new custom wardrobes in the master bedroom, and fresh interior and exterior paint give this home a fresh new look. In addition to the interior, you'll find the brand new roof,a big concrete parking driveway for 3 cars, new concrate in side/back yard, and an artificial turf. The spacious, tree-lined backyard, with its abundant fruit trees, become an ideal oasis for outdoor living and recreation. A future option is available to add an attached residential unit (ADU) at least 500 square feet (some neighbors have already completed this). This is undoubtedly the best option for owner-occupiers or investors, saving both time and money. Located in the heart of the highly sought-after Placentia Yorba Linda Unified School District, the property is close to various plazas, restaurants, supermarkets, banks, and Orange County (OC) bus stops. Few minutes' drive to the 57 and 91 freeways, 15 minutes drive to Rowland Heights/Diamond Bar, and 25 minutes drive to Irvine. All neighbors are warmly welcoming and helpful. This is not just a property, but a forever lifestyle. Don't miss it! Supplements attached.

Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7952, living area = 1823.
Extensive & High-Value Renovation: A significant investment of $250,000 has been made in a complete upgrade, including a new roof, plumbing, AC ducts, windows, doors, flooring, bathrooms, kitchen, and fresh paint, offering a virtually new home experience.
Prime Location & Top School District: Located in the highly sought-after Placentia Yorba Linda Unified School District, with excellent access to freeways (57, 91), diverse amenities, and major employment centers like Irvine.
ADU Potential: The property offers a clear and significant opportunity to add an Attached Residential Unit (ADU) of at least 500 sq ft, providing substantial value-add for rental income or extended family living.
Modern Gourmet Kitchen: Features a fully remodeled kitchen with abundant wood cabinetry, a huge central island, and a beverage fridge, designed for both functionality and aesthetic appeal.
Desirable Outdoor Space & Parking: A spacious, tree-lined backyard with artificial turf and fruit trees provides a low-maintenance oasis, complemented by a large concrete driveway accommodating three cars.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Original Construction Year: Built in 1963, the underlying structure is over 60 years old, which may raise concerns about long-term maintenance or potential for unforeseen issues despite extensive modern upgrades.
Recent Price Adjustment: The property has already undergone a price reduction from its initial listing, which could suggest a need to align with market expectations or attract more buyer interest.
Absence of Premium Outdoor Amenities: Despite a spacious backyard, the property does not feature premium outdoor amenities such as a swimming pool, spa, or dedicated outdoor kitchen, which some buyers might expect in a fully renovated home at this price point in Southern California.
