Executive Summary
Own a piece of Santa Ana’s rich history with the original Busy Bee Market — a well-known local landmark and designated historic building established in 1918. The Chiarini family later acquired the property in the 1980s as their first design location and thoughtfully infused it with imported marble and stone. The building sits strategically in the heart of Santa Ana, just one block from the OC Streetcar and directly across from the Orange County District Attorney’s Office and Orange County Sheriff’s Department — institutions that provide consistent tenant demand, enhanced safety, and additional parking opportunities. Recently operating as a successful deli, this historic commercial space is well suited for a multitude of uses in the P zone. Adjacent parcels, a recently renovated multifamily fourplex and two vacant lots totaling 6,250 SF are also available for sale. Call broker for details.
