New Price – A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Fullerton History! Built in 1924 with an uniquely large footprint and lovingly cared for by just three owners in more than a century, this exceptional Brookdale cottage seamlessly blends timeless character with modern comfort. Thoughtfully restored with meticulous attention to detail, the home features a new roof (Nov 2023), Anderson energy-efficient windows, new insulation (2024), central heating and air conditioning, beautifully remodeled bathrooms, and countless additional improvements all while preserving its original craftsmanship and historic charm. Spacious light-filled rooms, a large primary suite, gleaming historic hardwood floors, a custom mahogany Dutch front door, and inviting indoor and outdoor living spaces in the front and back create an unforgettable first impression. The expansive walk-up attic, versatile bonus structure/workshop, a rear garage with oversized parking or ADU potential, with utilities extensions in place, offer flexibility rarely found in historic homes. Located in Fullerton's highly sought-after Golden Hill neighborhood within the Brookdale Historic District, this one-of-a-kind residence places you just moments from Downtown Fullerton's dining, entertainment, shopping, and cultural attractions, while also offering easy access to the scenic Fullerton Loop. Rich in history, beautifully updated, and now offered at a new price, this is a truly rare opportunity to own one of Fullerton's most cherished historic homes.
