About 540 Elinor
Opportunity knocks! Situated on nearly one half acre above hole 17 of the Fullerton Golf Course, this diamond in rough awaits it's new beginning! On the market for the first time ever, this house and lot offer a premier site for a forever home. The top two thirds of the lot are all flat, perfect for an expansive residence, large infinity pool and a potential accessory dwelling. Golf course views from top portion of the lot are possible. Small lower lot with gentle downslope has views of the water and green of hole 17. Elinor Dr in the Las Palmas Hermosa neighborhood of Fullerton is one of the quietest streets in our tract, bookended by two cul de sac streets, Rosarita and Madonna. It is a rare and fortunate occasion to be able to buy on this street, and this opportunity will go fast!

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.24% (week of Oct 29, 2026); your rate will differ. A loan this size is typically a jumbo loan, which prices differently. Tax and insurance are modelled, not billed amounts; tax uses a typical Orange County rate. Verify all figures.
