More Insights

Built in 1959 (66 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1959, has undergone extensive and recent renovations, aligning with the 'extensively renovated within 5 years' criteria for an excellent score. The description highlights 'new paint and modern wide-plank flooring' throughout, and a 'newly remodeled direct-access bath.' Images confirm a bright, clean interior with contemporary flooring and a beautifully updated bathroom featuring modern vanity, subway tile, and glass shower. While the kitchen's light wood cabinetry and checkered tile floor are not ultra-modern in style, they are impeccably clean, well-maintained, and feature stainless steel appliances and a functional island, making it move-in ready without immediate renovation needs. The overall condition reflects minimal physical depreciation and a high standard of recent updates, despite the presence of a window AC unit in one room suggesting a lack of central air.

About this home

Single story and spacious, and uncrowded on a large corner lot, this updated and expanded home in coveted Eastgate is one you can enjoy for the rest of your life! In the past five years, only six homes within the Bell Intermediate School boundary (a perfect 10/10 on GreatSchools!) have been offered with over 2,500 sq. ft. on a single level — and this home delivers nearly 2,800! Sitting proudly on a large interior corner lot among well-kept, pride-of-ownership homes, this lovingly maintained, thoughtfully customized and expanded residence offers a scale and versatility rarely found in the neighborhood. The curb appeal is delightful with espresso-colored 2-car garage, oversized driveway with bonus off-street parking, and a bountiful lawn and flora including specimen-quality juniper. The courtyard entry leads to a spacious living room with fireplace, open to a generous kitchen with center island and abundant cabinetry. Spaces filled with natural light highlight new paint and modern wide-plank flooring for a fresh, elegant atmosphere. A formal dining room flows into a massive rear family room with a second fireplace all its own — a haven of relaxing privacy, ideal for entertaining as well. Four well-proportioned bedrooms and two baths include a primary suite with newly remodeled direct-access bath. And an inside laundry room is a luxury everyone can appreciate! Out back, a beautiful new patio cover shelters a just-right outdoor space, a canvas for endless possibilities. What’s your vision? Hardscape and firepit? Citrus trees and raised herb garden? A hammock and book nook? And on top of all this awesome, this sanctuary is walkable to top-rated elementary, middle, and high schools, less than ½ mile to Chapman Sports Park, and just over 10 minutes to Long Beach Airport or Huntington Harbor for kayaking, beach days, or Bolsa Chica Wetlands hikes. This rare combination of size, thoughtful layout, and prime location in one of West Garden Grove’s most sought-after neighborhoods makes 12202 Wutzke Street a must-see.

Prime Location & Top-Rated Schools: Located in the 'coveted Eastgate' and 'most sought-after neighborhoods' of West Garden Grove, it falls within the boundary of a 10/10 rated Bell Intermediate School and is walkable to other top-rated schools.

Generous Kitchen & Entertaining Spaces: Features a 'generous kitchen with center island and abundant cabinetry,' a 'spacious living room with fireplace,' and a 'massive rear family room with a second fireplace,' ideal for entertaining and family gatherings.

Cons

Original Construction Year: Built in 1959, despite recent updates, the property's age may imply older underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical systems) that could require future maintenance or upgrades not explicitly mentioned.
Absence of Mentioned Cooling System: The detailed description highlights many interior updates but does not specify the presence of a central air conditioning system, which is a highly desirable feature in Southern California and could be a drawback for some buyers.
Undeveloped Backyard Potential: While offering a 'just-right outdoor space' and a 'canvas for endless possibilities,' this suggests the backyard is not fully landscaped or developed, requiring additional investment and vision from the new owner to create a finished outdoor living area.
