Also address integrity) <br />The Worswick House is architecturally significant as an intact example of a Spanish Revival style house in Santa Ana. The <br />original building permit is dated January 1923 and indicates it was built as a residence and garage, at a cost of $4,000. The <br />original architect, builder, and owner was A. H. Worswick, who is listed on the original building permit as the owner, and <br />noted in newspaper advertisements as the property's designer and builder. A 1923 newspaper advertisement titled, "Beautiful <br />New Spanish Bungalow, " states, "This most attractive home is stuccoed with everlasting magnesite, the most approved <br />exterior plaster. Two large porches have cement the floors to match roofing tile... This is a truly artistic home, designed for <br />comfort and convenience, built with care and convenience --and charmingly located" (The Register, May 3, 1923). Orange <br />County Archives (OCA) reveal that the Worswick family generally owned the property until 1928, despite some short-lived lot <br />transactions between the Worswicks and McFaddens.
