Property Description

BEAUTIFULLY REFRESHED 4-BED, 2-BATH HOME ON A HUGE 10,800 SQ FT LOT IN HIGHLY DESIRED BREA! Welcome to this updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath home situated on an expansive 10,800 sq ft lot in one of Brea’s most desirable neighborhoods. Step through the front door into a bright and inviting interior enhanced with new recessed lighting, fresh paint, and original hardwood flooring. Enter the spacious living room, filled with natural light and direct access to the next great feature of this home. A sliding glass door opens to the enclosed patio with new laminate flooring, an ideal flex-space for hobbies, relaxation, or indoor/outdoor entertaining, complete with extra storage, leading you outside to the expansive backyard, where the possibilities are truly exceptional. The lot offers a large grassy area, a patio, and a concrete sitting area at the rear—perfect for gatherings, play, or peaceful outdoor living. With its impressive 10,800 sq ft lot, this property boasts multiple ADU opportunities. The extensive under-roof square footage offers outstanding potential for creating a spacious attached ADU or expanding the home’s usable living area. The backyard provides ample space for a second detached ADU, a full-size regulation pickleball court, a large pool, or an expansive outdoor entertainment area. Inside, you’re greeted by a well-appointed kitchen offering abundant cabinet storage and a functional layout ideal for everyday cooking or entertaining. A conveniently located hall bathroom features a walk-in shower design and continue down the hallway with even more built-in cabinetry, leading to the home’s four bedrooms. Four bedrooms include built-in closet organizers, and the second bathroom provides a shower-tub combo and additional storage. A long driveway leads to the spacious 2-car detached garage, offering abundant parking and convenience. Toward the back of the property sits the workshop attached to the garage, complete with plentiful storage and a built-in workbench—ideal for projects, tools, or additional workspace. All of this is located just moments from Downtown Brea’s shopping, dining, and entertainment, and within the highly regarded Brea Olinda School District—adding even more to the home’s appeal. This is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated home on one of the largest and most versatile lots in a sought-after Brea neighborhood.
