About 12851 Malena Drive
Set on a 13,000 SF flat lot in the desirable North Tustin area, this 1954 ranch style home is one level…no more stairs. An abundance of windows and slider doors creates a light-filled interior that flows easily to the outside. The huge backyard comes with a pool, new wood deck, covered patio, tiki hut and glider swing. Plus, there’s still plenty of room for backyard baseball. With redone kitchen, baths, hardwood flooring, fixtures, appliances, landscaping, fencing, central air and heat, and paint, it’s in turnkey condition. Along with an oversized two-car garage, there’s room on the side to park your motor home off the street. This quiet one-block long street is walking distance to La Veta Elementary with Santiago Charter Middle School and El Modena High School close by.
