Property Description

Property is being offered via auction. Welcome to 12542 9th Street — a rare opportunity to own a character-filled 1949 home on an expansive 14,040 sq ft lot in one of Garden Grove's most established neighborhoods. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2+ baths, and a generous 1,900+ sq ft of living space, this home blends timeless charm with incredible upside. The layout is warm and functional, featuring a cozy family room with fireplace, spacious bedrooms with room to grow, and an oversized garage structure with a large bonus room — perfect as a home office, gym, studio, or creative space. A separate laundry area adds everyday convenience. But the real story here is the land. With over 14,000 sq ft, this lot offers compelling ADU potential — build a detached guest house up to 1,200 sq ft, generate rental income, or create a multi-generational living arrangement. Buyers and investors alike will appreciate the scale of what's possible here. Situated near top-rated Crosby Elementary School, minutes to Disneyland, major freeways, dining, and retail. This is Southern California living with room to dream. Properties with lots of this size are increasingly rare — don't miss your window.
