The home

About 130 N Lester Drive

North Lester is one of the cutest streets in all of the City of Orange - pride of ownership and neighborhood is evident! The lot features 2 charming 2 bedroom / 1 bath homes - the front built in 1947 enjoys beautiful hardwood floors throughout, with entry, Family Room, Living / Dining Room, Kitchen, Coffee Bar area, large Primary and second bedroom, a large bath with walk-in shower and large vanity / sink area. Downstairs in the basement you'll find the Washer/Dryer and a small work area. The rear home is also a 2/1, with polished cement floors and light and bright skylights, also features a charming kitchen and bath, primary bedroom, and small secondary bedroom. A double tankless water heater served both homes, and new HVAC was installed 2 years ago. The darling patio courtyard between the two features a fun bar and BBQ area, free-standing stove fireplace, and around the corner, a potting shed, turtle house (turtles not included!) and tree house in the gorgeous tree that shades the yard. Also a garden alongside the home. The long brick driveway brings you to an impressive Craftsman gate, complete with windmill and bell tower (bell not included...) that brings you to the patio / bar /BBQ and storage area. This would make great student housing, investors, live/work situation, extended family living with 2 separate homes, etc. A truly unique and charming property in the heart of the wonderful City of Orange, with the historic Circle, just a few blocks away! Also very close to Chapman University, CHOC and St. Josephs.
