In 15th Century England, Henry IV named one of his castles "Placentia, a Pleasant Place". 500 years later Placentia in North Orange County, California, reflects that legacy as a pleasant place, and this fine home fits right in. Upgrades are what you expect: smooth ceilings - some cathedral - with recessed light fixtures; laminated flooring and newer carpet; granite counter tops and stainless steel (gas range) appliances as well as dual-pane windows for temperature and sound efficiency. Of course there's a Living Room and Family Room (with fireplace) and perhaps surprisingly, there's also a separate Dining Area for more formal occasions. The private patio at the rear has the right mix of concrete and grass: barbecue; pets, kids playground - it's your call. Additionally, there is access from the yard to the walkways that meander through the Placentia Village Grove community. This is a well-maintained home in a well-maintained community, just minutes from major freeways and shopping centers. Indeed, this is a pleasant place to live.
