Winton St, Garden Grove

Winton Street is located in an area sometimes referred to as West Garden Grove. This half mile long street is located behind the Eastgate Plaza Shopping Center in a small tract of attractive midcentury homes. A few houses have been remodeled and have added a second story, but the majority are single story older houses that are well maintained.

Winton Street is located in a family-oriented neighborhood that borders Eastgate Park. The park contains a public swimming pool, basketball courts, picnic tables, a playground and a small community building. A summer concert series is held in the park and youth sports teams practice there. A branch of the Orange County Public Library is located a couple of blocks from Winton Street. The closest major street is Valley View, which has plenty of shopping and restaurants. Valley View provides access to the 405 and 22 freeways, which are located about a mile from Winton Street.

Less than a mile to the west of Winton Street is the Navy Golf Course and an airstrip that belongs to the Los Alamitos Joint Forces Training Base. Luckily air traffic to and from the base is light enough that it’s thrilling rather than annoying to see fighter jets and large transport carriers passing right overhead.
