355 W 6Th St Tustin, CA 92780

Agent Remarks: This rare Tudor Revival historic house is eligible for significant property tax savings through the Mills Act and sits on nearly half an acre of land located in Old Town Tustin, one of the most walkable neighborhoods in OC. The main attraction is the massive backyard, and this is one of those once-in-a-generation opportunities to buy so much land in such a great location. Featured in the Tustin Home and Garden Tour, this property has been the site of legendary July 4th pancake breakfasts, backyard kickball tournaments, neighborhood potlucks, tea parties, and nights spent enjoying homemade ice cream and s’mores around the firepit in the secret garden. The soil in Old Town Tustin is amazing for growing food, so this is just the place for buyers who want to live off the land by raising chickens, growing fresh veggies, and harvesting fruit from a private orchard. Vehicle access from the street to the backyard, underground irrigation pipes, and electrical service to the back of the property ensure ultimate flexibility to continue the garden use or possibly build an ADU, a huge workshop, or even an RV garage. Capture the lifestyle of a bygone era, living in this well-preserved single level vintage home featuring gleaming hardwood flooring, Douglas Fir trim, coved ceilings, and original tile accents. Spend summer evenings hanging out with friends on the back patio, or host an alfresco dinner party with a meal featuring veggies grown in the garden. For the kids, there is a jungle gym and playhouse, plus the lawn is big enough for the longest Slip N’ Slide ever. When it comes time to leave the paradise of this property, it’s just a short walk in the morning to the local bakery to pick up a fresh baguette for breakfast, or stroll over to the weekly organic farmer’s market to stock up on whatever can’t be grown at home. Nights out will never be boring, with hip bars and excellent restaurants just a short walk away. Located close to schools, shopping, and freeways. No HOA or Mello Roos.
