This historic home features impressive preservation and modern upgrades. It sits in Historic French Park, one of Santa Ana’s oldest and most cherished neighborhoods. The Hickox House is a Craftsman bungalow built in 1910. The city lists it in their historic property registry. French Park is also a National Historic District. This means the property is eligible for a Mills Act contract. Step inside to find original white oak and Douglas-fir flooring. First and second-story floors were recently refinished to showcase their timeless beauty. The interior wall paneling, plate and picture rails, and crown molding are original. The kitchen's cabinets, counter tiles, sink, and flour bin are also original. The cabinets were recently painted to maintain the home's early 20th-century design. Double-hung and casement windows were recently painted. The interior wood screens were re-coated and previously fitted with copper mesh. Every double-hung window works, and many have new ropes. The original claw-foot tub is the bathroom’s centerpiece, adding period charm. The home has central heating, a Nest thermostat, a whole-house fan, and ceiling fans in many rooms. The electrical system and panel are up-to-date. Owners retrofit the foundation for earthquake safety. The roof on the house and the detached 2-car garage is about six years old. The driveway is only three years old. A basement under the house offers handy storage. It also gives easy access to plumbing and electrical lines. The building has shingle-siding, copper rain gutters, and downspouts. It also includes a rear porch with French doors. Inside, fresh paint highlights picture rails that add to the vintage style. The home is minutes from Fourth Street and downtown Santa Ana. The location is ideal for anyone wanting to join a lively neighborhood. Don’t miss your chance to own a fine example of Craftsman architectural history in French Park!
