If you’ve ever wondered how the publishers of your favorite car magazines from the 80s and 90s lived, wonder no more. This property for sale at 195 S Ferrari Way in Anaheim Hills, California was created specifically for the creator of Street Rodder Magazine. I don’t know who it was, but the guy knows how to build a car lover’s dream home. And yes, he changed the name of the cul-de-sac from Crescent Lane to Ferrari Way; publishers had that kind of power back then.
Let’s start with the important thing: the garage. There are two buildings that can accommodate up to 12 cars, or 8 cars and 2 large RVs, according to the listing. You also get a car lift so you can change the oil in your supercar yourself, as well as a paint booth for touch-ups, mural vans or a complete respray.

Moving on to the residence itself, it quickly becomes apparent that the interior hasn’t changed much since its birth in 1980. Some of the options back then include green carpets, a chandelier made of horn, and tiles that can only be described as “of its time.”
If only the weirdness stopped at the game-based light. The Ferrari Way home also has three properly installed indoor Jacuzzis in family room. Their location is very odd, but not as outlandish as the “runway dining table,” whose surface doubles as aisle floor. You have to see it to understand; words fail to capture the craziness of this setting.
The 4,355 square foot residence has four bedrooms and no fewer than six bathrooms, as well as a private office, wet bar, sewing room, vaulted beam ceilings, and three fireplaces. The kitchen was also renovated in 2013.
The lot measures 1.2 acres, and there are even accessory residential units you can rent to help pay for your mortgage. The house has an asking price of $2,250,000, so you’ll need all the help you can get. How does it compare to homes for sale we’ve shared before, like this one or this one?
