A rare opportunity in the desirable North Tustin area. This inviting single-level home is quietly positioned on a peaceful cul-de-sac in a historic neighborhood and on an expansive 11,290-square-foot lot, offering not only comfortable living today but exceptional possibilities for the future.

The 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan provides an easy, single-level lifestyle with generous natural flow between the living spaces. Laminate wood flooring extends throughout the main living areas, while the living room is anchored by a classic raised-hearth brick fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming focal point. The kitchen features original 1950s wood cabinetry, newer granite countertops, pantry storage, and an open connection to the dining area. Sliding doors extend the dining space outdoors, making entertaining and everyday living feel effortless.

The primary suite offers a private en suite bath, while two additional bedrooms are conveniently situated near the secondary full bath. The home’s practical layout and single-level design provide flexibility for a variety of lifestyles and stages of life.

Beyond the interior, the property truly distinguishes itself. The expansive backyard features a wood deck, tranquil water feature, and broad lawn with ample space for entertaining, gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The substantial lot also opens the door to envisioning additional living space, a potential ADU, a multigenerational living arrangement, or a pool.

With its sought-after cul-de-sac setting, generous lot size, single-level floor plan, and room to grow, this property offers something increasingly difficult to find: a home that works beautifully today while providing the space and flexibility to envision what comes next.

Estimate only, not a loan offer or quote. Principal and interest use the Freddie Mac 30-year fixed average of 7.28% (week of Oct 1, 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.
