17472 Fairhaven Ave
Overview
Lease and Income Structure
17472 Fairhaven Ave is a furnished residential compound of more than 4,800 square feet in unincorporated Orange County, on the Santa Ana and Orange border. The owner is offering it on a long-term master lease at $28,000 a month, absolute NNN, to an established operator.
The property
Thirteen bedrooms and eleven baths across a main house, a central ADU and five independent studios. There are seven permitted kitchens: one in the main house, one in the ADU and one in each studio. The studios suit a phased or independent-living model, where residents further along in recovery keep their own kitchen and bath.
Parking is behind an electronic privacy gate off Yorba Street: seven gated spaces under a large carport, plus six more in the driveway. Residents and visiting families pull onto the property and enter through the rear, out of view of the street. Three covered outdoor patios come with dining sets.
The owner delivers the property fully furnished, with a smart TV in every room. The owner reports that the hardwired smoke and carbon monoxide alarms were inspected and signed off by the city and fire department during the recent SB 9 build. The property is offered as-is, with no construction or permitting outstanding, so an operator can take intake from day one.
Location
The parcel sits in an unincorporated pocket of Orange County, so county rules apply here rather than those of Santa Ana or Orange. Central Orange County has one of the densest treatment and recovery networks in California, and the 5, 55 and 22 freeways put most of the county within a short drive.
Operating in California
California does not license sober living homes that deliver no clinical services. Licensing through the Department of Health Care Services starts once treatment is provided on site; a peer-run residence generally falls outside it. Certification is voluntary, runs through CCAPP as the state's NARR affiliate, and is what most referral sources look for.
Lease terms
Asking $28,000 per month, absolute NNN, on a long-term corporate master lease. The owner has city-stamped architect blueprints and site plans ready for an operator's underwriting review, and private walkthroughs can be arranged.
Diligence
Confirm how Orange County treats group living at this bed count before you build a lease-up plan on it. After that: the permit history on the ADU and the studios, what an absolute NNN lease leaves with you for taxes, insurance and repairs, and exactly what furniture and equipment the owner delivers at signing.
