Snug Santa Ana suburb around Windsor Park

True to its “village” name, Windsor Village is a compact community of neighbors who share a central greenspace, where gently curving streets loop into cul-de-sacs, limiting through-traffic. Within this peaceful Orange County suburb, residents can walk to schools and easily access retail and sports amenities. Teresa Knoll, a local Realtor who’s been selling in the area for 18 years, says, “Windsor Village is a stable neighborhood, close to everything — the Heritage Museum, the Santa Ana Zoo, and the freeway to John Wayne airport. Plus, you’re only a couple miles from the trendy, artsy Downtown Santa Ana Historic District and about 8 miles from Disneyland. There’s so much here that brings people into this community. It’s a very central, friendly place.”

Modest, well-maintained mid-century homes

Throughout Windsor Village, established trees line sidewalks that connect small front yards. Many lawns are trimmed in decorative fencing or a patio paver and brick surrounds. Driveways are small; however, garages are common and street parking is plentiful. Single-level homes mostly built in the 1960s fill the neighborhood, maintaining a consistent midcentury style. Knoll says prices depend on a lot of factors. "It's offer and demand; the real estate market is very lean, and there's a lot of buyers out there.” Two- to four-bedroom homes range from about $700,000 to $950,000. To the north, condominiums and townhouses from the early 2000s are priced at around $750,000.

Near Centennial Regional Park

In the heart of Windsor Village, the 10-acre Windsor Park is a recreational cornerstone. Residents can walk across the street, or from backyards to meet at the playground, enjoy a picnic, go for a run, or walk dogs. Local athletes play baseball, tennis or basketball on Windsor Park’s courts and fields. On the southern end of the community, the nearly 70-acre Centennial Regional Park sits next to the Santa Ana College School of Continuing Education. It features a popular paved loop that meanders around a man-made lake. The sandy playground with ship-theme play equipment overlooks the lake. Amenities include the Dan Young Soccer Complex, a turf football field and a packed running track. A well-designed skate park here was recently renamed Pat McGuigan Skate Park to honor former City Councilmember Patricia McGuigan, who advocated for the park’s construction in 2002. Walkers, runners and bikers can also connect with the 60-mile Santa Ana River Trail that runs along Centennial Park.

Windsor Park is the heart of the neighborhood with expansive grounds and plenty to do.

Shakey's, markets and nearby cocina

Small shops, casual eateries, and bakeries are all close to home, including Shakey’s Pizza Parlor and Dios Del Maiz Yun Katz Tortilleria — a go-to for Mexican grocery staples. Plus, it's only about 5 miles to the South Coast Plaza, a premier shopping destination with over 250 stores. The Santa Ana Zoo is a quick, 5-mile drive east, and all the oceanfront fun at Newport or Huntington Beach is within 10 miles. Says Knoll, “There’s a brand-new restaurant in the area, Three Roots Mexican Cocina, that’s already so popular. It’s very family-oriented, and locals love to have birthdays, quinceaneras, and executive meetings there. They offer cumbia and mariachi music on Fridays and free salsa lessons on Saturdays.”
