Where to begin? There is so much to tell about this home I just have to ask you to read all the way to the end. First of all, Eastgate is a very special and unique section of Garden Grove with its own amazing culture, and that culture could stem from the schools. There are only a handful of middle schools in the entire COUNTY that GreatSchools rates a "10", and Bell Intermediate is one of them! From this gigantic nearly 2800 sqft home - all on a single level mind you - you are walking distance to the fantastic elementary, middle AND high schools. This neighborhood is what you've dreamed of like a slice of Mayberry: people say hello, 4th of July block parties and borrowing a cup of sugar are the norm. Now for the home! On a large corner lot, with enough driveway for 3 cars (and even 1 more in the front courtyard if you like) plus the 2-car garage, and featuring a specimen-quality juniper out front, you begin to feel at home even before entering. Inside are sooo many spaces for you to spread out and enjoy: huge added (permitted) living room with wood burning fireplace, sprawling kitchen with double oven and center island, the largest family room I've ever seen (fits a ping pong table and still plenty of space to enjoy the raised hearth fireplace), double-sized primary bedroom with en-suite bath, double size secondary bedroom, extra large original third bedroom, and the 4th bedroom is configured as an office with a direct access door to the garage. Smooth ceilings, plank vinyl floor, brand new patio cover in the generous backyard.. and the large side yard is even perfect for making a vegetable garden! You just have to see it to believe it.
