Brea Single-Story Homes

Tired of apartment living? Or just ready to make a change? A single-story home offers the perfect answer, and there are plenty to choose from in the city of Brea.
 
One-story homes are the suburban ideal of Orange County and surrounding areas: In the early part of the 20th century, much of the region's former farmland and groves were converted into tracts of one-story homes that enabled many people to realize their dreams of buying a home of their own.
 
Not every single-story home is the same, of course. Floor plans and exterior styles are diverse as you want. The term "single-story home" also applies to a wide variety of styles, ranging from the popular ranch design to simple cottages and cozy bungalows. It also applies to the solid, classic appeal of Craftsman homes as well as to homes reflecting the Spanish heritage of the San Gabriel Valley's past.
 
Here you'll find a fine selection of single-story Brea homes for sale that may include one just for you.
