About this House

WELCOME TO 601 CHERRY STREET IN THE HEART OF BREA, offering approximately 2,847 square feet of combined living, entertaining, and future-use potential, including a 1,600-square-foot main residence, an 827-square-foot covered patio, a 272-square-foot detached workshop with ADU potential, and a 148-square-foot detached playhouse or flex space. Situated on a spacious lot over 10,000-square feet, this well-maintained single-story, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a functional floor plan with multiple indoor and outdoor living areas. The front living room flows into the dining area and kitchen before opening to a dramatic great room highlighted by vaulted wood ceilings with exposed beams, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, and expansive sliding glass doors leading to the backyard. Designed with entertaining in mind, the impressive covered patio expands the usable living space and includes built-in lighting, recessed speakers, and convenient controls for exterior flood lighting.

An additional 148-square-foot detached playhouse offers even more possibilities as a creative studio, fitness room, hobby space, or recreation area. Additional improvements include dual-pane windows, a 15-SEER HVAC system and furnace, a 30-year composition roof with new sheathing, fresh interior paint, new carpet, new laminate flooring, recessed lighting, ceiling fans throughout, and a water heater replaced in 2021.
