Welcome to 1952 N. Topaz Street, an exceptional opportunity in the highly desirable city of Orange. Situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on an oversized lot of approximately 10,000+ square feet, this property offers the scale, location, and flexibility that developers, investors, and buyers looking for a value-add opportunity have been searching for.
The existing single-level ranch-style home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, along with an additional non-conforming bonus room located off the garage. The home is in need of updating, presenting an opportunity to renovate the existing residence or explore the property's potential for a more extensive transformation, subject to applicable zoning, planning, and city approvals.
The expansive lot and cul-de-sac setting provide a unique combination of privacy, usable land, and potential rarely found in this price range. Whether the vision is a high-end remodel, significant addition, or future redevelopment, this property offers multiple avenues for creating value.
The location further enhances the opportunity, with convenient access to schools, shopping, dining, employment centers, major freeways, and the many amenities throughout Central Orange County. Properties offering this combination of lot size, location, and upside are increasingly difficult to find.
