This striking property was originally owned by Oliver Halsell, a board member of the Santora Co. who developed many Santa Ana properties including Oakmont Park. With only 3 owners this home has history. The Santora building in DTSA may be the most notable but they also developed Fairhaven Cemetery and this neighborhood. In 1937 he designed and built a handsome Colonial Revival home with his wife. In 1973 the Bricken Family purchased it and lived here for 50 years. Gordon Bricken was Mayor in 1981-1983. Please see more historic detail in the supplement section. Set on the 3rd largest lot in Park Santiago of nearly a half acre there is plenty of room for your dreams! The house is apx 3,000 sqft with refinished original hardwood floors and new paint in & out. The millwork is outstanding with 35 different moldings. Set back from the street with a large front lawn and mature landscaping it has a stately approach. Walking through the front door you immediately feel the quality and traditional charm. A sweeping staircase leads to the private second floor. The entrance leads to a grand Living room with French doors, fireplace with marble surround & a bay window. This light & bright space is the perfect spot for your Christmas tree! An enclosed patio room with stone floors opens to the "courtyard" garden. A den off the entry has a nice view of the yard. The formal dining room has 5 hidden china cabinets. The kitchen and laundry room are off the driveway. Completing the lower level is the 4th bedroom and bath. Three bedrooms and 2 baths are off a large hall with lots of storage. A small sleeping porch off the master was enclosed for extra space. Both baths open to the master. An original 2 car garage with a workshop and half bath is just out the back door. Behind that is a motorhome carport with sewer clean out and a tandem 4 car garage. There is still lots of room to add an ADU, pool, pickle ball court or whatever you want. What would you do with all this space? The property should easily qualify for the Historic Register and Mills Act taxes. Can you picture making your own memories in this storied home? The Bricken's raised 4 daughters here and were involved in the community over their tenure in Santa Ana. Maybe you will be inspired to run for Mayor! Oakmont is the prettiest street in Park Santiago with a landscaped center divider maintained by the city, a long cul-de-sac with no traffic. There is a small utility basement. Property is a trust and sold as is.
