Description

Welcome to 1248 E. St. James Avenue — a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath home that stands out with more square footage than most homes in the neighborhood and a layout designed for gathering.

For over 25 years, this home has been the central hub for family celebrations, dinner parties, and unforgettable moments. The generous size of the home is immediately felt, offering expansive living areas and a floor plan that comfortably accommodates both everyday living and large-scale entertaining.

At the heart of the house is a massive kitchen, ideal for large families, featuring abundant counter space and a wide breakfast bar that naturally brings everyone together. With four well-sized bedrooms, the home offers flexibility for growing families, guests, or home office needs—something rarely found in this area.

The outdoor space continues the entertainer’s appeal with a custom outdoor bar and BBQ area, perfect for football Sundays and hosting incredible gatherings year-round. The home has been meticulously maintained, with true pride of ownership evident throughout.

Parking is effortless thanks to a rare 4–5 car driveway in addition to a 2-car detached garage, making this home exceptionally functional for multi-car households and guests.

Equally impressive is the prime Orange location, conveniently adjacent to the 91 and 55 freeways and just minutes from endless shopping, dining, and everything Orange County has to offer—making everyday living and entertaining a breeze.

This is a home built for space, connection, and making lasting memories—one that truly sets itself apart in both size and lifestyle.
