Set within Orange’s historic district on storied Pixley Street, this Spanish Colonial has been thoughtfully reimagined—pairing the character and craftsmanship of a pre-war home with the comfort of a comprehensive modern renovation. An impressive 42-inch wood entry door opens to a fireside living room where restored wood windows, a signature arched window, graceful arched passageways and rich hardwood floors preserve the warmth that makes homes of this era so special. Rather than stripping away its history, the renovation was designed around it, restoring defining elements while introducing carefully selected finishes authentic to the home. The kitchen continues that approach with warm wood cabinetry, clean stone surfaces, a farmhouse sink, custom copper range hood and vintage-inspired hardware. A window-wrapped dining area fills the space with natural light and connects the kitchen and living spaces. Throughout the home, details were intentionally considered—from distinctive bronze and porcelain fixtures to restored woodwork, substantial trim and period-inspired lighting. The bathroom combines marble, warm wood, oversized mirrors and vintage-inspired fixtures for a refined, timeless finish. A bedroom with walk-in closet completes the interior. Behind the historic character is a comprehensively modernized home, with major improvements including new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof, kitchen and bath—offering the charm of an early Orange residence with the systems and conveniences expected today. Outside, a private backyard is anchored by a mature avocado tree, while a dedicated driveway leads to the detached garage.

Pixley Street runs for only a few quiet, tree-lined blocks immediately southwest of the Circle, creating an intimate enclave of Spanish Colonial Revival bungalows, Craftsman homes and vintage cottages. Dating to Orange’s early expansion era, this is a home where history wasn’t simply covered up—it helped guide the renovation. The result is a residence distinctly of its time, thoughtfully renewed for its next chapter.

Positioned in one of Orange County's strongest rental submarkets, this income-producing property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a large bedroom-count home with immediate cash flow and significant long-term upside. Located just minutes from Chapman University, Historic Old Towne Orange, CHOC Children's Hospital, St. Joseph Hospital, shopping, restaurants, and major freeway access, the property benefits from a consistently strong tenant pool driven by students, medical professionals, and young professionals seeking housing in one of Orange County's most desirable communities. Built in 1922, the residence offers approximately 2,668 square feet above grade (basement not included) on a 7,263 square foot lot. The well-designed floor plan features seven bedrooms and four bathrooms, including one private ensuite bedroom, two spacious living rooms, and one shared kitchen. Six bedrooms share three bathrooms, thoughtfully configured with two bedrooms per bathroom. The basement includes the washer and dryer, central HVAC system, furnace, and water heater, maximizing the functionality of the primary living space. The property is currently occupied by tenants with tenants paying utilities. Existing leases contain a provision allowing the seller to require tenants to vacate upon transfer of ownership, providing a new owner with flexibility to reposition the asset, implement a new leasing strategy, renovate, or capture higher market rents. Current occupancy leaves an immediate opportunity to increase income. Additionally, existing rents appear below prevailing market rates for comparable private-bedroom rentals near Chapman University, creating further upside through strategic lease renewals and professional management. The surrounding neighborhood has demonstrated strong long-term appreciation, supported by Chapman University's continued expansion, ongoing investment in Historic Old Towne Orange, proximity to world-class healthcare employers, and limited inventory of large homes suitable for student and shared housing. These market fundamentals have consistently driven both rental demand and property values, making this an attractive acquisition for investors seeking stable cash flow with meaningful appreciation potential. This property offers an exceptional combination of current cash flow, operational flexibility, rental upside, and long-term value growth in one of Southern California's most sought-after investment markets.
