Move-in ready and filled with character, this beautifully updated Craftsman bungalow is located just blocks from the shops, restaurants, entertainment, and community events of Downtown Fullerton. The home blends timeless architectural details—including a striking leaded-glass window, original built-ins, and beautifully reconditioned hardwood floors—with the modern improvements today’s buyers value.
The remodeled kitchen and bathrooms provide updated style and functionality, while major improvements include updated electrical and plumbing, a tankless water heater, water-filtration system, upgraded insulation, and newly replaced asbestos-free venting. The roof and gutters were installed in 2020 and include a 50-year warranty.
Both bedrooms feature spacious walk-in closets, and the basement and attic offer valuable additional storage. The detached garage includes a distinctive sound room or flexible creative space with heating and air conditioning. A separate garden room in the backyard provides even more possibilities for gardening, hobbies, or personal projects, while the covered carport offers additional parking.
Outside, enjoy a tranquil, low-maintenance backyard with a soothing waterfall fountain and charming gazebo—an inviting setting for relaxing or entertaining. Thoughtfully improved, rich in original character, and conveniently located near the heart of Downtown Fullerton, this special home is ready for its next chapter.
