Charming, character-rich, and full of upside — this 100-year-old duplex in Santa Ana’s coveted Museum District, adjacent to Floral Park, is a rare find for the savvy investor. Zoned for Commercial & Residential, the possibilities are endless! Live in one and work in the other. The property features a spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit and a cozy 1-bedroom, 1-bath unit, both brimming with the vintage detail and craftsmanship you’d expect from a home of this era. Best of all, the property sits on Santa Ana’s Historic Registry, opening the door to potential Mills Act designation — meaning significant, ongoing property tax savings for the right buyer. But the real surprise is out back: a huge, private backyard oasis offering serious future potential, whether that’s an additional ADU or even a second duplex (buyer to verify with the city). It’s quiet, secluded, and full of possibilities. Location seals the deal — you’re walking distance to the Bowers Museum, Discovery Cube, and MainPlace Mall, which is undergoing an exciting transformation into a mixed-use indoor/outdoor entertainment and lifestyle destination. Also close by and walkable is the reinvisioned Park Santiago with playgrounds, walking trails, and Lawn Bowling for the outdoor enthusiasts. Character. Cash flow. Tax advantages. Room to grow. This one checks every box — don’t miss it!
