Agent Remarks: Custom built in 1957 by Don Honer, Architect, this Mid-Century modern home was the first passive solar cooled home in Santa Ana. Occupied for 65 years by the original owners this home is remarkably well preserved and would qualify for Historic status and the Mills Act. Truly a one of a kind home with its large windows opening up to peaceful gardens and flooding the home with natural light. Accented by deep overhangs and original Redwood siding and pops of orange & turquoise. Custom lights inside & out are original. Step inside to a redwood wall leading to a spacious Living room with windows on three sides and vaulted ceiling with rich ornamentation. A fireplace anchors the room and served as a screen for family home movies. A shady brick patio invites you to enjoy the out of doors. Imagine your morning coffee or a drink in the evening in this inviting spot. A study with a second fireplace is located between the Living & Dining rooms. An efficient U shaped kitchen was designed for it's functionality with easy pass through to the Dining room. Updated with granite counters, slab wood cabinets and vaulted ceiling. The Dining room also has windows on three sides like the Living room and opens to 2 outdoor yards. The landscaping evolved over the years to entice birds and butterflies and indulge the owners love of nature. This home takes full advantage of the cool ocean breezes. There is a large walk-in pantry off the kitchen. Down the hall are four bedrooms and two baths including a master suite. Tons of built-in storage everywhere.
