From 1902, this magnificent Artistic home is a Quintessential Victorian farmhouse that sits on a roomy lot and a half. Said to be the 9th house built in Orange and known as “The Parker House,” it could qualify for the Mills Act and be on the historic registry.

Past the large sod and planted front yard with fruit trees and a beautiful wrap-around front porch, you will find the newly painted and updated home, which echoes charm throughout. Hardwood floors, new carpeting underneath, which has nice wood flooring, soaring 10-foot ceilings, a hidden secret passage, and a romantic fireplace grace the downstairs while the windows are large and plenty in number, allowing a tremendous amount of natural light. The formal dining room and living room have gorgeous pocket doors that can either have an open concept or close the rooms for privacy.

The huge modern eat-in kitchen features recessed lighting, a central island, breakfast bar, and built-in dining nook, two refrigerators, and concrete counters, along with a walk-in pantry and laundry area—plenty of storage and counter space for those that love to cook.

While the home boast 5 spacious bedrooms, the first-floor master bedroom has an en-suite bath and a very spacious walk-in closet, two features rare to find in a historic home! Crystal chandeliers light the way to the beautiful staircase leading up to the unique bedrooms, including a second master, an oversized central bathroom with a marble counter, and a bathtub. A sunroom runs along the back overlooking the fabulously appointed backyard, and a widows’ walk with solar lights is the perfect place to watch the sunset or the Disneyland and Angel Stadium fireworks.

Outback, the covered porch oversees the oversized yard that yields the private greenspace and party place. The secret garden covered with blossoming Wisteria is another focal point of your personal sanctuary. Abundant entertaining spaces, including the hot tub for relaxing and the merlot grapes covering the arbor between the patio and the stone path leading to the BBQ area, the fishpond, and the garden. The converted garage is the perfect spot for creativity as the current owners use it for a studio. An electric car 220v charger was installed. With over 900 sq. ft. of standup semi-finished attic space, there is plenty of room to store everything you can desire.

This house is the perfect home, close to Old Towne Orange Plaza, Chapman University, Metrolink train station, and freeways.
