Property Description

Nestled in a peaceful cul-de-sac in one of Tustin’s most charming neighborhoods, 14691 Leon Place is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history. In the early 1950s, Lillian and Leon Lauderbach transformed their former orange grove into a residential enclave, commissioning renowned local builder Hugh Neighbor Jr. to craft this custom-built ranch-style home on an expansive 11,890 sq ft lot. Lovingly maintained by the same family for over 40 years, this 2,040 sq ft residence seamlessly blends timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades. The home features 3 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an enclosed breezeway that has been converted into a personal office. The heart of the home is a custom kitchen, designed for both function and style, and the living room showcases a striking beamed ceiling, wood plank flooring, and large windows overlooking the beautifully landscaped garden. Improvements include full copper repiping, ABS drain replacements, a whole-house water softener, a brand new HVAC system installed within the last month, and an upgraded electrical panel with a 240V outlet in the garage. A new water main line runs from the street to the house, and the property is serviced by a 12-zone automatic sprinkler system for efficient landscaping. With its oversized lot, mature landscaping, and long-standing pride of ownership, this home offers a rare blend of comfort, space, and enduring quality. Conveniently located near top-rated schools, Tustin’s Old Town district, local dining, shopping, and major freeways—this is the kind of home that doesn't come along often.
