Eichler mid century living at it's finest!!This Eichler has it all!Not only is this one of the rarest Eichler floorplans that you will not see very often, it is one of the best! This TWO CAR GARAGE HOME is a very quiet interior location with a HUGE Lot that currently bosts maximum outdoor entertaining including a horse shoe pitt, rock fire pit area spa and plenty of room for a huge pool or bocce ball if you wanted to add. The landscaping was all completely remodeled to perfection with solar lighting and drought resistant. The sleek clean look of the radiant heat concrete floors compliments the waterfall quartz kitchen counters that put the remodeled kitchen over the top. Espresso cabinets and all new appliances are just part of the kitchen remodel. DID I MENTION ORIGINAL GLOBE BALL INDOOR LIGHTS?The true and authentic look Joseph Eichler had envisioned dangling from his vaulted open beam ceilings. Both bathrooms updated with new lighting, cabinets, flooring and sinks and faucets. Yes it also has A/C and the Foam roof adding more and more value and convenience. All this and more secured and monitored by the ADT with it's high tech security system. Only 340 Eichler homes in the City of Orange and this Fairmeadow community is just a couple miles from OLD TOWN ORANGE!
