330 S Illinois Anaheim CA 92805 MLS #PW25262841

An eclectic Anaheim cottage with great property tax savings w/ The Mill’s Act program & potential supplemental rental income. Think English Tudor meets French countryside—all wrapped into a 1920s Pacific Ready-Cut Home, shipped by train, assembled like a life-size kit, and adored for nearly 100 years.

The original bones steal the show: classic double-hung sash windows, charming casement windows, true 1920s wood floors, picture rails, and a storybook built-in dining buffet that feels straight out of a vintage film reel. The kitchen? Still rocking its adorable breakfast nook, the kind that demands lazy mornings and something warm in a mug. A thoughtful 12×12 addition brings modern ease with a spacious bathroom + walk-in closet, blended effortlessly into the home’s historic architecture.

A white picket fence frames the lush, mature landscaping—pure cottage-core—but the backyard shifts into entertainer mode fast: a two-tiered deck, double-sided fireplace, firepit lounge, pergola, and a fully outfitted outdoor kitchen (BBQ, fridge, bar seating, the works). It’s a whole vibe.

In the rear: a beautiful 752 sq ft, oversized, 2 car garage topped with a 715 sq ft ADU that feels like a European guest retreat. One bedroom, full kitchen, split A/C + heat, storage, privacy—ideal for guests, renters, creatives, or the person in your life who “just needs their own space.” Could possibly create an additional ADU directly below the current ADU and still have space to park cars. It already has a separate entrance.

And the historic cherry on top: the Mills Act. The next steward inherits wonderfully low property taxes in exchange for keeping this gem exactly what it already is—plaque-worthy.

Blocks from Center City Anaheim, artisan dining, neighborhood bars, shops, the library, the post office—and yes, Disneyland close enough to add a hint of magic to the night air.

A rare blend of whimsy, history, craftsmanship, and personality. This cottage doesn’t just stand out— it stands in its own era.
