Heninger Park
Urban Core Neighborhood in Santa Ana, California
Orange County 92701, 92703
Known for its wealth of early 20th century homes, Heninger Park is a residential Santa Ana neighborhood that borders the city’s historic downtown district. “It’s all about the location, the walkability and the historic, remodeled Craftsman homes,” says Realtor Luis Anaya of Keller Williams Realty.
Here, you’ll find an array of eclectic architecture, most of which was constructed between 1900 and 1940. Cozy Craftsman homes are the star of the neighborhood, known for their wide front porches, exposed wood beams, dormer windows and rooftops with deep eaves. You’ll also see some spacious Colonial Revival and Victorian homes, brightly colored bungalows, summery Mission Revival homes and some Tudor-inspired architecture. Home prices can vary widely owing to the range of sizes and styles, typically ranging from around $500,000 for small homes to upwards of $900,000 for homes with more square footage. Lush landscaping, sidewalks and streets lined with tall, skinny palm trees give this area loads of curb appeal.
Santa Ana High School, located in the heart of the neighborhood, adds to the community spirit of Heninger Park. Every day during the school year, more than 3,000 students pour in the front entrance in the morning and head home in droves in the afternoon. Established in 1889, the high school is a local historic landmark — it’s the largest and oldest school in town. Young students can attend Heninger Elementary and Middle School next door to Santa Ana High, while students who live at the southern edge of the neighborhood may attend Franklin Elementary School, Pio Pico Elementary School and Lathrop Intermediate School.
If you want to enjoy the outdoors, take a stroll over to the city's charming downtown district where you can relax beneath a leafy tree canopy at Birch Park or take the kids to the playground at Angels Community Park. Nearby, you can swing by Pacific Electric Park and Community Garden, a lovely little park that offers an access point to the Pacific Electric Bicycle Trail, a two-mile, urban trail that’s perfect for walking, jogging and cycling. Sport courts, baseball diamonds and walking trails can also be found at Jerome Park, about a mile west of the neighborhood.
Shopping, dining and entertainment are close to home for residents of Heninger Park. Along Main Street, there’s an assortment of fast and casual dining options, including many Mexican restaurants, shops and markets. Mariscos La Sirena is the perfect spot to try some refreshing ceviche, while those in the mood for something sweet might enjoy the Mexican pastries at The Mill Bakery. For everything else, you'll want to be on 4th street in downtown Santa Ana. Whether you’re enjoying a craft ale at local brewery, sipping a coffee on an outdoor patio, catching an indie flick at The Frida Cinema or enjoying views of historic buildings dotting the streetscape, the downtown district has you covered.
Heninger Park’s central location is a major selling point for homebuyers. With convenient access to local amenities, lovely historic homes and walkable streets, it's a highly sought-after Santa Ana community.
